The Prime Minister revealed readiness to submit the list of the 'Anutin 2 Cabinet' to the King on Monday, 30 March, if all goes smoothly, pledging to move forward as quickly as possible to establish a full government. He affirmed his support for coalition party policies, incorporating them into the government's agenda.
At 19:22 on 27 March 2026 GMT+7. Anutin Charnvirakul, the Prime Minister and leader of the Bhumjaithai Party (BJT). He gave an interview at the Government House regarding talks with Chulaphan Amornwiwat, leader of the Pheu Thai Party (PT), and Suriya Juangroongruangkit, a key Pheu Thai figure, on 26 March. He noted that Pheu Thai controls major ministries including Agriculture and Cooperatives, Social Development and Human Security, Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation, Labor, and Education, all of which are important ministries. Pheu Thai must participate in drafting the government policy because each party has made promises to the public, which are then combined into the government’s policy. Being part of the same government means policies are not divided as ‘Bhumjaithai’s policy’ or ‘Pheu Thai’s policy’ with refusal to support each other. Since I assumed this position, I support the policies of all parties.
. (Fragment) Has the list of ministers passed the qualifications check? There are rumors that some nominees have qualification issues. Anutin stated that at this moment everything is okay. He hopes that on Monday, 30 March, if nothing changes, the list will be signed and submitted for royal endorsement. They are trying to proceed as quickly as possible. Currently, as a caretaker government, which is probably the last weekend of the first Anutin government, there are many issues that cannot be fully advanced due to legal and regulatory restrictions. For example, when I have to quickly sign something and consult with the Election Commission (EC). Since next week we will have a new government, we push forward to finalize the new government, pay respects to the King, take the oath, and present the government policy to Parliament. We will proceed at full speed. The limitations since the dissolution of Parliament in December 2025 will no longer apply. The government will then be a full-fledged government.
Regarding rumors about Ms. Sutadawan Wangsupakitkosol, a party-list MP from Pheu Thai, who is on the ‘Anutin 2 Cabinet’ list and alleged to have qualification problems, is the issue resolved? Anutin replied, The ministerial list cannot be publicly discussed because it must be approved by the King first. If any nominee has potential conflicts with the constitution, the list is checked thoroughly. I would not propose anyone with issues. Therefore, all coalition parties submitting names, including Bhumjaithai itself, must have all nominees vetted. We do not restrict anyone’s rights. If someone has a problematic background, they cannot be appointed. That is all. . (Period)
