At 07:30 AM on February 3, 2026, at the market in front of Phranangklao Hospital in Nonthaburi, Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul, as leader of Bhumjai Thai Party, responded to comments by Abhisit Vejjajiva, leader of the Democrat Party, who suggested that choosing the blue party would be similar to the previous orange party. Anutin stressed that the best approach is to present one's own policy and party strengths without criticizing or belittling other parties. He emphasized that every Bhumjai Thai policy is designed to benefit the people and that the party never criticizes other parties' policies or tries to incite public hatred. When asked about confidence in securing Bangkok seats, Anutin stated he is confident in their candidates, noting each must have a strong local connection and history in the area they seek to represent.
