The Black Market in Samut Prakan was bustling as the Prachachon Party held parallel rallies alongside Samyan Mitrtown with Wiroj, Pita, Chaitawat, and Sirikanya taking the stage to seek votes. They aimed to win all parliamentary seats in the province again and promote “Teng” as prime minister.
On 25 Jan 2026 at the Black Market in Samut Prakan, the Prachachon Party held a rally under the campaign “Trust in the People,” running simultaneously with an event at Samyan Mitrtown in Bangkok. The rally began around 17:00 with parliamentary candidates from various districts taking turns to speak, including Sia Champathong, Ratchanok Sukprasert, Pichai Chaengjanyawong, Chanasit Yodchim, Nittaya Meesri, Weerapat Kantha, Boonlert Saengphan, Theparit Phasi, and Wiroj Lakkhanaadisorn.
Wiroj, speaking at the rally, referred to the old power blocs such as the “Uncle’s Gang” and the economic challenges the country has faced. He noted that previous elections have always resulted in the same old power groups winning. He urged voters, saying, “If you don’t want the country to keep revolving around the Uncle’s Gang, you must vote for Prachachon Party with two ballots.”
He also spoke candidly about politics and explained why he placed himself at number 99 on the party list, which should have been last. This was based on his confidence in forming a government and winning a parliamentary seat, using this strategy as a “high-stakes gamble” to challenge the political establishment.
At 19:20, Chaitawat Tulathon, former leader of the Move Forward Party and campaign assistant for Prachachon, greeted the people of Samut Prakan, admitting he was very excited. He said this was his first visit to Samut Prakan to honor the voters who could help the orange party win all parliamentary seats in the province again. He noted the unusual nature of this election, where nearly every party is campaigning by attacking Prachachon with old and new allegations and claims of inexperience. He asserted that Prachachon’s team is the most prepared to serve the people.
He added that everyone in the party has experience, and they have collectively learned over many years that the old power blocs cannot move the country forward. They aim to create a future where Thailand progresses beyond past limitations. He questioned politicians who claim they would never cede even an inch of territory but allow proxies to let foreign capital destroy Thai businesses and bribe police and officials, asking what kind of patriotism that represents.
At 19:45, Pita Limjaroenrat, former leader of the Move Forward Party and campaign assistant, joined the event to support Prachachon’s Samut Prakan candidates. Upon arrival, he was greeted with loud cheers from crowds who had been waiting since the afternoon. Wearing a white shirt, Pita took the stage smiling, made a heart hand gesture, and invited voters to choose number 46 to support Nattapong Ruangpanyawut, Prachachon’s leader, as prime minister.
Pita expressed his fondness for the people of Samut Prakan, recalling his first campaign visit there during the COVID-19 crisis and the over 400,000 votes the people had previously given him. Despite being disqualified from politics, he said no one can erase his affection for the voters.
The final speaker was Sirikanya Tansakul, Prachachon’s prime ministerial candidate, who took the stage to loud applause and many people presenting flowers and gifts at the front. She thanked everyone who stayed to support the party late into the evening, sharing how much she missed campaigning live. She noted that usually she attended debate stages facing other party members who only promised “If you elect me, I will do this or that,” and questioned why some who had held government positions before never acted for the people's benefit.
Sirikanya continued that the party has prepared professionals to build public trust and assigned experienced individuals to each ministry, differing from past situations where unelected powers overshadowed the voters' voice. She urged people to show their strength in this election. After about 10 minutes of speaking, she took photos with parliamentary candidates and invited the audience to light up their phone flashlights to create a sea of stars, allowing people to come on stage to take photos with candidates and campaign assistants.
