Chuan Points Out Democratic Party's Decline During Chalermchai Era, Says Sacred Forces Are Real and Abhisit Will Elevate the Party
Chuan Leekpai, former Democratic Party leader, spoke at a major rally in Trang, addressing the party's internal conflicts and recent challenges. He highlighted the party's struggles, including 19 MPs voting against party lines when supporting Srettha Thavisin as Prime Minister, which damaged the party's reputation. Chuan noted the party's decline during Chalermchai Sri-on's leadership and praised Abhisit Vejjajiva's return as a potential turning point. He also raised concerns about vote-buying tactics, particularly involving local government officials and public health volunteers, and called for fair and transparent electoral processes.
