Kraiwut Fires Back at Natthapon's Accusations, Insists All Parties Play by Same Rules
A Bhumjaithai MP rejected accusations that his party dominates government as a "blue system" agent, arguing all parties operate under identical constitutional rules regardless of their political color.
On May 25, 2025, at Parliament, Kraiwut Prusilnananthakul, a member of parliament from Ang Thong representing Bhumjaithai Party and chairman of the government coalition coordination committee, responded to remarks by Natthapon Reungpanyawutthi, Pheu Thai Party's list-based MP and party leader, who had suggested the country is being dominated by a 'blue system' with Bhumjaithai serving as its agent.
Kraiwut rejected the characterization as excessive, arguing that all parties operate under the same rules and constitution. He pointed out that Bhumjaithai did not author the current constitution, and that parties of all colors—orange, red, and green—find themselves in identical circumstances. He criticized the creation of such political rhetoric as inaccurate and called for its cessation.
Kraiwut noted that when certain parties previously won elections as the top vote-getter under this same constitution, no one accused them of domination by any particular color. He firmly denied any takeover and stressed that Bhumjaithai formed the government through electoral success while operating within established democratic frameworks, just like other parties.
When asked whether these accusations could fuel future conflicts, Kraiwut emphasized the need for patience in politics and urged that public interest and national welfare be prioritized over political rhetoric. Regarding potential difficulties in parliamentary cooperation, he expressed confidence there would be no problems, citing successful collaboration between government and opposition parties to date. He credited the opposition parties' cooperation and noted that both sides have made compromises to keep national work moving forward.
