Political party, Bhumjaithai, prepares to establish a transitional administration
In the political landscape of Thailand, two significant parties, the Bhumjaithai Party and the reincarnated People's Party, are making strides towards forming a new government.
The People's Party, a successor to the disbanded Move Forward Party, believes in establishing a stable government with political legitimacy and a capable administration. They have proposed dissolving the House of Representatives and holding a general election, a move that could shake up the current political dynamics.
However, the People's Party has chosen to remain in opposition and will not have any of its members join the cabinet as ministers. This decision is likely to influence the composition of the potential new government.
The Bhumjaithai Party, with 69 MPs, has been a key player in recent political developments. After quitting the Paetongtarn government led by the Pheu Thai Party in June, Bhumjaithai has been in negotiations with other parties. The party's leader, Anutin Charnvirakul, has been lobbying other parties to back the People's Party's proposal.
The Bhumjaithai Party's intention is to gather additional MPs to form an interim government. If successful, Mr. Anutin's name will be put forward as the candidate of the Bhumjaithai-led alliance for the position of the next prime minister.
The new government, according to Bhumjaithai, will have three main tasks: addressing security issues related to the Thai-Cambodian conflict, holding a public referendum on rewriting the constitution, and dissolving the House in four months after announcing its policy platform to the parliament.
The People's Party has agreed to support the formation of this new government, on the condition that it dissolves the House by the end of the year and holds a referendum on the drafting of a new constitution. This agreement indicates a shared vision between the two parties for a fresh start in Thai politics.
While the exact composition of the potential coalition remains uncertain, the focus is on the cooperation between Bhumjaithai and the People's Party. The Pheu Thai Party, though a related actor, has not been confirmed as a coalition partner in the new government formation agreement.
The goal of this potential alliance is to form a government that can address immediate problems facing the nation and its people. As negotiations continue, Thai politics eagerly awaits the outcome of these efforts to shape the country's future.
