The Bhumjaithai Party (BJT) is facing a crisis of public confidence. Controversies such as alleged Senate election rigging, in which party members are among those on the suspect list, and cheating in local government recruitment examinations have brought the positive momentum of the Anutin II administration to an abrupt halt.
The stream of negative news is exhausting public trust and corroding the image of BJT, which came first in the February election and secured a comfortable majority in the House of Representatives. People are growing tired of corruption scandals. Many observers joke that four months of Bhumjaithai rule have felt like four years.
