In view of this, Mr Chatchai, known to have good ties with Interior Minister Anupong Paojinda, retired from the civil service amid speculation that he would set up a party to support Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha if he seeks to return for a second term.
Along with this, Col Suchart said he had considered leaving the PPRP for some time and the party to be formed by Mr Chatchai was his first choice because it would back Gen Prayut as prime minister.
He shared that there were several factors behind his decision to defect while admitting that the group felt it was underappreciated by the party despite winning 13 House seats in the southern region in the 2019 general election.
So the question continues if the party ever consider giving them a cabinet seat. In facf, it doesn’t have to be them and it could be anyone who is suitable for the post. But that isn’t the reason why he’s leaving. There are many factors.
He said the PPRP’s election success in the southern region was the result of his team’s hard work and Gen Prayut’s popularity. Gen Prayut received strong support in the southern region.
The PPRP won 13 seats in the national poll and another seat in the by-election in Nakhon Si Thammarat early this year to find a replacement for Thepthai Senpong, a Democrat whose MP status was revoked by the Constitutional Court.
Morever, Col Suchart shared that he would leave it to the 14 MPs to decide if they would remain with the PPRP or join the new party. He said he had raised the possibility of him leaving the party with Gen Prayut in March this year. He said it should be clear this month how the PPRP’s working team in the south will decide on their political future.
