The Palang Pracharath Party (PPRP) is downplaying remarks by a party member who suggested Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha should step aside and let PPRP leader Prawit Wongsuwon run in the next election as the party's sole prime ministerial candidate.
Responding to remarks made by Rong Boonsuayfan, a PPRP MP for Nakhon Si Thammarat, Chaiwut Thanakamanusorn, a PPRP deputy leader and Minister of Digital Economy and Society, said the party has not talked about replacing Gen Prayut with Gen Prawit as the party's candidate.
