Bangkok: Somsak Prisananantakul, former Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives and father of Minister Attached to the Prime Minister’s Office, Paradorn Prisananantakul, expressed confidence in the potential impact of the Bhumjaithai Party’s policies on the upcoming election. He emphasized that if these policies resonate with the people, they will influence the electoral outcome.

According to Thai News Agency, Somsak praised Prime Minister Noo’s ability to identify talent and noted that his appointment of Paradorn as Minister to the Prime Minister’s Office reflects a keen political insight.

He expressed gratitude for Anutin’s confidence in his son, which was reciprocated with mutual respect between the two leaders.
