General Prawit Wongsuwan, known as "Big Pom," took on the role of a food critic by eating noodles at "Not Wararit"'s shop without any political drama. Meanwhile, Watthana Sengphairo joined, praising Palang Pracharath as the model for the "Half-Half" co-payment scheme and affirming no constitutional amendment plans to be made.
At 11:45 a.m. on 26 Jan 2026 GMT+7, Watthana Sengphairo, candidate for Bangkok's 23rd constituency (Bangna-Phra Khanong) from the Palang Pracharath Party, joined General Prawit Wongsuwan, party advisory chairman, for noodles at "Luk Tong Chon Cow" noodle shop on Bangna-Trad Soi 23, owned by Not Wararit Fuangarome, a well-known actor and host. Numerous members of the public continuously asked for photos.
Notably, there was no discussion or inquiry about any prior political controversies involving Not Wararit. Only Not Wararit warmly welcomed and served General Prawit's group and also requested to take commemorative photos together.
After dining with General Prawit, Watthana stated that General Prawit encouraged his election campaign. Watthana emphasized that he is a lifelong resident of the area—his mother from Bangna and father from Phra Khanong—and that his family has lived there for three generations. He returned with the goal of sustainable development, noting that Bangna-Phra Khanong is unique for having two parallel electric train lines spanning three kilometers. He hopes local residents, as original landowners, will collaboratively develop the area into a "special administrative zone" along the train lines, where residents are affluent, to boost the local economy further.
Watthana added that Palang Pracharath continues to focus on national security and protecting the country's key institutions. The party is free from vested business interests and was the initiator of the "Half-Half" co-payment scheme, a beneficial policy even adopted by Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul, leader of the Bhumjaithai Party.
Regarding the constitution, Watthana reiterated Palang Pracharath's stance against amending it. He acknowledged that the constitution can be amended but not in its entirety.
"Some politicians say amending the constitution is difficult, which is natural since the constitution governs the country. However, claiming to amend the entire constitution without specifying what parts to change only causes public concern and suspicion," he said.
