SAMUT SAKHON, Feb 9 (TNA) — Palang Pracharat Party, one of major political parties contesting in the general election scheduled for March 24, said Saturday that Prime Minister Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha is the most suitable person to lead Thailand forward.
Leader of the party Uttama Savanayana said his party is confident that Gen Prayut is the most suitable person while the country presently needs peace, a leader that could make a quick decision and work for the people.
Therefore, Gen Prayut is now the most appropriate person to lead the country, he said.
Mr Uttama made his comments after the Future Forward Party urged Gen Prayut to resign from prime minister post and the leader of the National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO).
The NCPO seized administrative power on May 22, 2014 and toppled the government of prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra, accused of massive corruption and causing divisiveness among people in the country.
The Palang Pracharat Party on Friday nominated Gen Prayut as prime minister after the election after the latter agreed to the proposal. (TNA)
