Klatham expects influx of defectors
Bangkok Post
|May 14, 2025
More than ten MPs from various parties are expected to defect soon to the Klatham Party, its leader Narumon Pinyosinwat said yesterday.
The revelation came after a former People’s Party (PP) MP for Chon Buri confirmed his intention to join Klatham, following his recent resignation from the main opposition party.
Krit Chevathamanon yesterday announced the formal end of his role as a member of the PP, following his resignation from the party in April, while affirming that he would not step down as an MP.
More MPs from several other parties are expected to move into Klatham, possibly more than ten, said Ms Narumon, who also serves as the agriculture and cooperatives minister.

Another wasted year in Thai politics
As Thailand winds down 2025 with an early election looming on Feb 8, the most consequential issue to watch in the coming year will be whether recent topsy-turvy political patterns of polls, protests, and military and judicial interventions give way to a compromise between the old guard clinging on to vested interests and the new generation clamouring for reform and change.
