People's Party battles shift in voter moodListen to this articlePeople’s Party deputy leader Sirikanya Tansakun joins candidates as they register for the Feb 8 election, in Bangkok on Dec 27. So far, the timing does not appear propitious for the People's Party, the winner of the 2023 national election under the now-defunct Move Forward Party banner. Within Thailand's political landscape, the People's Party is widely seen as a progressive force, championing welfare policies and institutional reform. In my view, the People's Party should resist the temptation to shoot for the moon. Perhaps it is time for the People's Party to fine-tune its electoral platform.
