Political party in Thailand From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thai Ruamphalang Party (Thai: พรรคไทรวมพลัง, RTGS: Thai Ruamphalang) Formerly known as "Pheu Thai Ruam Power Party"[2] is a political party in Thailand. It became politically relevant after the 2023 general election when the party unexpectedly won 2 seats in the Ubon Ratchatani province.[3] It is unrelated to the similarly named Pheu Thai Party, though some observers in the 2023 election questioned whether the similarity was intentional and confused voters.[4]
