Paetongtarn "Ung-ing" Shinawatra, leader of the "Pheu Thai family", tops the list of potential candidates for the post of prime minister among the people of the North, according to a survey by the National Institute for Development Administration, or Nida Poll.
The daughter of former prime minister Thaksin was followed some distance behind by Pita Limjaroenrat, leader of the Move Forward Party - although together they captured almost half the vote, leaving Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha and other establishment candidates on the fringe.
