Nattapong Views Pheu Thai Closing Government Deal Without Democrat and Kla Party as Possible

At 3:00 PM on February 22, 2026, at Rama Gardens Hotel, Nattapong Ruangpanyawut, leader of the People's Party, commented on rumors about Pheu Thai forming a 300-seat government without Kla Party and Democrat Party. He believes it's possible and has no obstacles, suggesting those not in government can still perform oversight roles. When asked if the government formation formula remains the same with just a new prime minister, Nattapong said it's best to wait and let the public judge the government's effectiveness. The People's Party believes that without fundamental political structural changes, the government won't truly represent people's voices. Regarding Kla Party's opposition role, Nattapong doesn't see it as a hindrance. He suggests that if Kla Party performs genuine oversight, they might even provide insider information for more effective government scrutiny. He emphasized that the People's Party has consistently been strong in preparing impeachment and investigative materials, and believes collaborative opposition work will ultimately benefit public oversight.
