Peeraphant Pleads for Votes for RTNS, Challenges Monopoly Capital, Artwichai Reaffirms Stance Against Referendum

On February 7, 2026, the Thai United Nation Building Party (RTNS), led by Party Leader and Prime Minister Candidate Peeraphant Saleratvipark and Deputy Leader Artwichai Suwanpakdee, canvassed Bangkok for final voter support before the election. Peeraphant emphasized that this election offers more than just the traditional blue and orange party choices, positioning RTNS as a genuine people's alternative. He urged voters to choose based on their heart, not out of hatred or strategic voting. Peeraphant described RTNS as the 'last stronghold' fighting against capitalist groups seeking to monopolize the country, particularly focusing on energy structure reforms. Meanwhile, Artwichai clearly stated the party's opposition to the comprehensive constitutional referendum, citing concerns about potential impacts on the monarchy and royal powers, which he considers sensitive and critical to national stability. He also advised voters to allow extra time for voting on February 8th, anticipating high voter turnout and potential complications from early voting and referendum procedures.
