Anutin's govt is off to a flying startA photo dated Sept 23, 2020 shows Dr Warong Dechgitvigrom, leader of the Thai Pakdee (Loyal Thai) group, speaking to a crowd before presenting to parliament a petition containing the names of 130,000 people who oppose amendments to the consttution. (Photo: Wichan Charoenkiatpakul)In terms of the numbers, the coalition government of Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul should be quite rock solid, politically. Although the party says it has dropped its plan to amend Section 112, the party is still viewed with deep distrust. On top of that, the People's Party is expected to be dealt another blow from the court which may see several of its key members, including party leader Natthaphong Ruengpanyawut and deputy leader, Sirikanya Tansakun, booted from politics. He shot into fame for being the man who exposed the massive corruption in the infamous rice pledging scheme of then Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra over a decade ago.
