Bangkok: “Bhumtham” said dissolving parliament is the next step, waiting for the people to give a clear decision. “Phumtham” reveals he is waiting for the Prachachon Party to make a clear announcement about joining hands, while dissolving parliament is the next step.

According to Thai News Agency, At 5:30 PM at Government House, Mr. Phumtham Wechayachai, acting as Prime Minister, addressed rumors that the People’s Party had voted to support Mr. Anutin Charnvirakul, leader of the Bhumjaithai Party, for prime minister. He stated, “It’s not true. They just informed me that it’s not true. There was no appointment, no meeting. How can you go and say something so vague that the People’s Party has already said it?”

When asked if the decision would be finalized after the official decision of the Prachachon Party’s executive committee tomorrow, Mr. Phumtham replied that it was uncertain, as the Prachachon Party had not yet made a decision. There was no “if” and no “no.”

Regarding Mr. Sorawong Thienthong, Secretary-General of the Pheu Thai Party, who admitted that the process of dissolving parliament had begun, Mr. Phumtham stated that he had already stated that this was the next step, requiring clarity and that no preparations had been made as negotiations were underway. He confirmed that an announcement of a joint venture would be made at a later date. He insisted, “I’m not thinking about anything at all. Let’s not get too far ahead.”
