The new leader of the Ruam Thai Sang Chart Party has set his sights on a clean sweep of seats in the southern region in the next election and indicated his readiness to support Prayut Chan-o-cha to continue as prime minister.
The party's first general assembly on Wednesday elected Pirapan Salirathavibhanga to be the new leader and Akanat Prompan as the secretary-general, as expected. Mr Pirapan's deputies will be named later.
