Trinuch emphasized that she has not yet discussed a government formation deal with Anutin, awaiting the Election Commission's certification of the 2026 election results. She said they have always worked well together and revealed that "Big Pom" has not given any comment yet.
At 11:10 a.m. on 10 Feb 2026 GMT+7. Ms. Trinuch Thienthong, Minister of Labour and head of the Palang Pracharath Party (PPRP), as well as the incoming MP for Sa Kaeo’s 2nd constituency, gave an interview at the Government House about whether she had been approached to join Anutin's second government, saying that no clear discussions have taken place yet since the election just concluded.
When asked if there had been any informal talks, Ms. Trinuch said, "Let's wait a little longer. Initially, the Palang Pracharath Party has 5 MPs: 4 constituency seats and 1 party-list seat. However, we still have to wait for the Election Commission (EC) to certify the results first." When pressed on whether there had been any discussion at the Cabinet meeting, Ms. Trinuch replied, "There has been no serious discussion. Only greetings and congratulations were exchanged. I emphasize that no actual talks have taken place."
Asked if forming the new Cabinet would take a long time, Ms. Trinuch said, "As the Prime Minister said, we must wait for the Election Commission’s certification before proceeding according to the system." When asked if Palang Pracharath is ready if approached, Ms. Trinuch said, "The party is clear that it listens to the people, and the people have clearly entrusted the Bhumjaithai Party, led by the Prime Minister, with significant support as the main leader in forming the government. We have worked well together so far."
However, when asked if there would be any conditions, Ms. Trinuch stated that no talks have occurred yet and that Gen. Prawit Wongsuwan, chairman of Palang Pracharath's advisory board, has not given any comments on joining the government. He has only expressed congratulations.
