Two key leaders, Kwanchai Praipana and Chinnawat Haboonpad, were critical of the vote for Thida, arguing that they and other leaders at the regional level were left out of the voting proce
“Everything was fixed because southerners would elect their fellow southerner,” Kwanchai said in reference to Thida’s southern hometown.
Reds spokesman Pipatchai Paiboon countered that Kwanchai had made unacceptable slur.
Of the 30 leaders casting votes for Thida, six were from the South, Pipatchai said.
