Commerce Minister and Democrat Party leader Jurin Laksanawisit has declared himself ready to be nominated as the party's prime ministerial candidate ahead of next year's expected election.
He said the party hopes to win more seats in parliament in the polls, slated tentatively for May 7.
A party must have at least 25 MPs to be eligible to nominate three prime ministerial candidates at most. The Democrats won 53 seats in the previous 2019 general election.
