The popularity of the Palang Pracharath Party (PPRP) would plummet without Prime Minister Chan-o-cha, according to a northeastern poll that saw Paetongtarn Shinawatra leading the choice for new premier – and the main opposition parties together command almost two-thirds of the popular vote.

The E-Saan Centre for Business and Economic Research of Khon Kaen University (KKU) released the poll on Wednesday. It showed only 5.5% of the surveyed voters would vote for PPRP if Gen Prayut parts ways with the ruling party.
