Meanwhile, the Kla Tham and Bhumjaithai parties did not send prime ministerial candidates to the debate.
Mr. Suchatvee Suwansawat Leader of the Thai Khao Mai Party and prime ministerial candidate, Mr. Suchatvee Suwansawat said the Thai Khao Mai Party is a political party of Thai people, led by him—an engineer, scientist, educator, administrator, and politician—supported by a team with global expertise. He volunteers to lead Thailand into a new phase to overcome the decline of the past 20 to 30 years. He stressed the need to end the tolerance of old-style politics that has caused Thailand's backwardness, to stop persistent poverty and inequality, end lack of opportunities, and break free from recurring problems like floods and natural disasters that harm the lives of all Thai people and future generations.
The Thai Khao Mai Party has a clear goal to make Thailand strong with the Four-Arrow policy, reflected in their logo: 1. Prioritize education by resetting the entire Thai education system; 2. Build a new economy putting Thai people first, investing in science and technology; 3. Definitively manage disasters to ensure good quality of life, health, and safety for Thai people; and 4. Eradicate corruption at its roots and support good people to have a place in society. The party aims to restructure Thailand's entire system to reduce inequality and inject new energy into the economy to make Thailand strong again.
He said that if we continue with the same thinking and choices, Thailand cannot advance. He urged support for him, Suchatvee, and the Thai Khao Mai Party to enable Thailand to move forward, reduce inequality, and avoid benefiting any special interests—only the people.
