Thai Unity Party held a candidate launch event on August 9, 2026, at Wang Prachab Community Hall in Tak Province, introducing Chanida Ohnprom—known locally as 'Dr. Da, the Compassionate Doctor'—as their nominee for District 1 representative in the next nationwide parliamentary election scheduled four years ahead. The event drew large crowds of community members.
Chanida, 39, a professional nurse at Naresuan University Hospital and owner of Chanida Clinic, explained her decision to enter politics stems from genuine commitment rather than ambition for office. She aims to leverage her experience and knowledge to address challenges facing constituents across four districts: Muang Tak, Wang Chao, Sam Ngao, and Ban Tak. She emphasized that many residents struggle with income, employment, living costs, and limited access to education and public services, and that these problems require serious policy solutions, not merely listening.
Chanida pledged to conduct regular community outreach across all four districts to collaborate on problem-solving and development initiatives. Known for her tireless dedication to patients—answering calls at all hours, day and night—she has earned the affectionate nickname 'Dr. Da, the Compassionate Doctor' from local residents.
