Pheu Thai's new political strategy for Thon Buri
Play
The Pheu Thai Party plans to make a "Thon Buri Declaration" to try to solve drug problems and boost its political standing in the area.
Pheu Thai deputy spokeswoman Sunisa Lertpakawat said the party wanted to listen to demands from the people and help them out of any distress by setting up a project in Thon Buri, western Bangkok, that would be a model for 18 other zones around the country.
The Thon Buri Declaration is one of three Pheu Thai strategies to counter moves by the Democrats against the ruling party and the government’s reconciliation bill.
Thon Buri will be the leading zone of the 19 Pheu Thai plans around the country to fight illicit drug use. But the project also includes a political school and a flood-protection plan.
