Suchart infuriates Pheu Thai for saying govt would be short-lived

Education Minister Suchart Tadathamrongvej has ruffled the feathers in the ruling Pheu Thai Party after predicting that the government would be short-lived.

His prediction was disputed by Pheu Thai figures Wednesday, including party leader Yongyuth Wichaidit, who said that he believed the Pheu Thai-led government would complete its fouryear term. But he also added that it was uncertain if Suchart would survive the next Cabinet reshuffle.
Suchart Wednesday held a press conference to confirm press reports that he made the prediction the government would not last until the end of this year. However, he denied that his remark was caused by any dissatisfaction at the possibility that he could be replaced in the upcoming changes in the Cabinet lineup.
