The Palang Pracharath Party's (PPRP) failure to capture two House seats in Sunday's by-elections in Chumphon and Songkhla has prompted questions over whether the ruling party, which only just recently made inroads with voters in the South, is on the way out of government.
According to unofficial results, the Democrat Party successfully fended off challenges by its coalition partner in Constituency 1 in Chumphon and Constituency 6 in Songkhla.
