"Sia Nu" was deeply moved as he embraced his wife after leading by a large margin, raising his hands in a full salute to gratefully thank every vote.
At 21:05 on 8 February 2026, at the Bhumjaithai Party headquarters, Anutin Charnvirakul, leader of the Bhumjaithai Party, arrived amid cheers and a joyful atmosphere. Anutin wore a bright smile and his eyes showed clear emotion.
Immediately upon arrival, Anutin went to embrace Chaiyachon Chidchob, the party secretary-general, along with key leaders and party-list MP candidates such as Santi Promphat, Patthana Promphat, Supachai Jaisamut, and Kriangsak Sudlapa to congratulate them on the initial results showing a strong lead in many areas.
A memorable moment came when Anutin went directly to the barista coffee shop to embrace his wife, Ms. Thannon Niramits, surrounded by encouragement from their daughter and son, Ms. Nainpak and Mr. Seranee Charnvirakul, who had come to join their father in awaiting the results.
When asked about reports that the Bhumjaithai Party might win up to 200 parliamentary seats, Anutin exclaimed “Wow” and raised his hands above his head in joy before saying he wanted to deeply thank all the people who voted for the Bhumjaithai Party. "Thank you very much indeed."
