All eyes will be on Wednesday's launch of the Ruam Thai Sang Chart Party which is widely seen as a possible offshoot of the ruling Palang Pracharath Party (PPRP) and a ploy by the ruling party to address its waning popularity.
The party, founded by Seksakol Atthawong, a former aide to Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha, will hold a special assembly at the Rajapruek Club. High on its agenda is the selection of a new executive board, revision of party regulations, and the appointment of an election candidate screening committee.
