Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha will not apply to become a member of the Palang Pracharath Party (PPRP) with the aim of replacing Gen Prawit Wongsuwon as its leader, Gen Prayut said yesterday, swatting away rumours to the contrary.
An earlier report made such a claim, citing an unnamed source. It added that Gen Prawit would be relegated to the role of secretary-general.
