BANGKOK, Dec 7 (TNA) – Gen Prawit Wongsuwon, leader of the ruling Palang Pracharath Party (PPRP), welcomed Mingkwan Sangsuwan to its economic team while the latter said he joined the party because it did not have Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha.
Gen Prawit and other key figures of PPRP held a press conference to introduce Mr Mingkwan as its new party member.
Gen Prawit said the country had economic problems and Mr Mingkwan could strengthen PPRP’s economic team. He also said he would propose the party’s executive board nominate Mr Mingkwan as one of its prime ministerial candidates.
Mr Mingkwan said that one reason for his participation in PPRP was that Gen Prayut would not remain with the party. He said that he could not work with Gen Prayut because they did not share the same ideology.
Mr Mingkwan said Gen Prayut was the only target of his censure debate because Gen Prayut could not solve national and economic problems and during his chairmanship of the Center for COVID-19 Situation Administration more than 20,000 people died of the disease. (TNA)
