Deputy leader Korn Chatikavanij said on Tuesday the party would use “grey money” connections as a basis for deciding on forming an alliance to govern Thailand after the Feb 8 election. Mr Korn said some parties were being financed by “grey money” as the financiers want to see the parties they support become a government to protect their underground businesses. The Democrats earlier named Klatham as the party they would not work with, given its alleged connection with transnational crime syndicates. It changed its name to Klatham in April 2023 and has since attracted a number of MPs from other parties.
