The ruling of the defeat of the parliamentary qualifications of the opposition party leader of the third party in Thailand
The Thai Constitutional Court said that the leader of an opposition party who had made a breakthrough in the third party in Thailand with a departure from military affairs owned shares in a media company that was forbidden for election candidates. I handed down a ruling that disqualifies me. In response to the ruling of the party leader, who has garnered support mainly from young people, there has been a rebound in Thai social media.
The Thai opposition party, the New Future Party, gathered support mainly from young people in the elections for the return to civilian government in March, and moved away from military politics.
However, after the election, the Thai Election Management Commission alleged that the party leader, Tanatone (40), owned shares in a media company that was forbidden by the candidates.
Mr. Tanatone explained that he had already transferred his shares to his mother at the time of the candidacy, but the Thai Constitutional Court said that Mr. I handed down the ruling sentence.
The power of the Thai Parliament House is slightly higher than the opposition parties such as the New Future Party, with the ruling party centering on the party to which Prime Minister Prayut, who led the coup five years ago, belongs.
After the ruling, Mr. Tanatone stated that “there was no impact on the party,” and he remained a leader and expressed his willingness to expand the party.
Mr. Tanatone has been popular among young people using social media since the election period, and has received a ruling, and opinions such as "There is no justice in this country" have been posted.
