On Sunday, millions of Thais went to cast their votes to make sure their voices were heard loud and clear -- that this time around, they want political change, and they want it now.
In the election, which marked a watershed moment for Thai democracy, over 14 million people voted for the Move Forward Party -- a newcomer on the political scene with a radical and progressive agenda that includes military reforms and amendments to Section 112 of the Criminal Code, also known as the lese majeste law. Worth noting is the fact that the MFP received over twice as many votes as its predecessor, the Future Forward Party, had received in the previous election.
