The Thai Khao Mai Party held its final major rally where Khun Ying Kanlaya affirmed that Thai children must receive free education. Meanwhile, Ae Suchatvee declared full commitment to the Four-Arrows policy, promising to conduct politics without slander and without vote-buying.
On 6 Feb 2026 GMT+7 at the Aerobics Lawn, Chatuchak Park, Bangkok, the Thai Khao Mai Party held its final major rally. This event brought together all 60 party-list MP candidates and the party's prime ministerial candidates who will contest the election on 8 Feb 2026 GMT+7. The party stated that these individuals are not only good speakers but also capable, thoughtful, and responsible.
The rally began at 17:50 when Mr. Chayapong Saifa, the party’s deputy leader, stated that education is the foundation for human and national development. He pledged to professionally improve education, noting that the current education system is in crisis, with many children dropping out due to poverty. The Thai Khao Mai Party intends to make concrete reforms in this area, emphasizing their expertise in education.
The party’s policy, known as the Four Arrows, focuses on providing free education, forgiving unjust student loan debts to reduce burdens, and empowering citizens to tackle other issues. It also aims to reduce teachers’ workloads by cutting administrative and unrelated tasks, emphasizing that education professionals are at the heart of the Thai Khao Mai Party.
Following that, party-list MP candidates and party members took turns delivering passionate speeches promoting the party’s policies. At 18:20, Dr. Khun Ying Kanlaya Sophonpanich, along with Prof. Dr. Suchatvee Suwansawat and associates, arrived at the rally site and were warmly welcomed by supporters.
At 18:40, Dr. Khun Ying Kanlaya Sophonpanich, the party’s prime ministerial candidate and chairwoman, took the stage to thank the public for their support. She addressed Thailand’s educational challenges, emphasizing its importance for national development. The party is committed to actively improving the system to ensure future generations receive free education, as education leads everyone toward their goals.
The Thai Khao Mai Party will also enhance skills, especially in AI, for civil servants and all agencies. They will promote employment for the unemployed aligned with market demands, both online and offline. The party plans to invest in Thai people’s knowledge to help them compete globally and bring income back to Thailand.
Subsequently, the party’s MP candidates took turns promoting various party policies related to the economy, education, and the current quality of life in Thailand. At 19:40, Prof. Dr. Suchatvee Suwansawat, another prime ministerial candidate and party leader, addressed the crowd amid warm applause from the supportive audience.
Prof. Dr. Suchatvee thanked everyone for their encouragement both at the aerobics lawn and online. He explained the party’s founding purpose: to unite Thai people in progress. He said the Thai Khao Mai Party’s policies are realistic and not fanciful, highlighting solar energy initiatives consistent with the policy that Thailand’s electricity cost should not exceed 3 baht per unit.
He expressed his belief that nothing in this world is accidental and everything is predestined. The party chose Chatuchak Park for the rally because it is a sacred place built to commemorate the fourth cycle birthday of King Rama IX ("Chatuchak" meaning "four cycles"). This aligns with the party’s number, which also seems destined. It is time for Thailand to change and reclaim its position as ASEAN’s leader once again.
He then spoke about 'betting,' clarifying it is not gambling but an all-in commitment based on belief. The party’s founding intention is to promote education with the Four-Arrows policy.
Arrow 1: Create new people, transform education.
Arrow 2: Build a new economy with Thai people prioritized.
Arrow 3: Establish a new quality of life where Thai people enjoy good health, end chronic flooding and disasters, ensure no Thai dies in vain, and hold wrongdoers accountable.
Arrow 4: Ensure good people have a place, fight corruption, gray capital, and scammers using AI.
Previously, Thailand was poised to be Asia’s 'fifth tiger,' but after decades, it may now only be the 'leader of turtles' compared to neighboring ASEAN countries. Politicians continue mudslinging, and foreign observers see Thailand as the 'sick man of Asia' due to debt burdens and an aging population exceeding birth rates. Global media attribute this to the country’s failure to reform its human development and education structures. This is why Thailand needs the Thai Khao Mai Party.
The party aims to uphold the ideals of knowledge and courage. It will practice constructive politics without finger-pointing, disrespect, slander, or vote-buying. Understanding the public’s fatigue with unconstructive politics, the party believes power belongs to the people. On 8 Feb 2026 GMT+7, they invite everyone to use their vote fully. Thailand can 'step forward anew' only with true professionals.
