Peoples Party Launches Nationwide Orange Volunteer Network, Gives Government Time Before No-Confidence Motion

"Natthapong" is leading the launch of an orange volunteer network in Bangkok, aiming to cover every village nationwide. The party plans to soon announce its Bangkok governor candidate and requests the government be given time to work before filing a no-confidence motion.


At 13:00. On 22 March 2025 GMT+7, at the People's Party office in Bang Khae district, an event was held to meet orange volunteers to form a citizen network. These volunteers act as observers and reporters of local issues, driving change in their communities. Natthapong Ruangpanyawut, head of the People's Party, said this activity aims to build a strong local network for the party, targeting coverage of over 75,000 villages nationwide.villagesin Bangkokisa strong support base area. Therefore, it is intended as a pilot area to involve everyone in political work following the People's Party approach—politics for the maximum benefit of the people. At minimum, orange volunteers will be spread to every polling station to protect voters' rights. The orange volunteer network also assists in policy development by surveying local problems such as the energy crisis. Currently, over 4,000 volunteers nationwide are gathering data and sending it back to the party. Next week, the party will summarize the data and forward it to the government. In parliament, they will urgently submit a motion conveying how the people are suffering.


When asked about the Bangkok governor election race,,Mr. Natthapong said that the party is ready and confirms candidates will be fielded in all districts. Policies are also ready. The party will soon announce its Bangkok governor candidate. He urged everyone to place their hopes in the People's Party in this election, believing the candidate, policies, and 33 district MPs will offer the best choice for the people. Regarding a no-confidence motion against the government, he said that according to the political calendar, the government should be given some time to work. However, this does not mean reducing oversight activities such as submitting motions, questioning, or committee work, which will continue fully. The no-confidence motion can only be submitted once per parliamentary session and requires consultation with opposition parties. It is too early to discuss this now, but if major issues arise, the party is ready to proceed and will not reduce government scrutiny.
