Nonthaburi: Anutin Charnvirakul, leader of the Bhumjaithai Party, made a notable campaign stop at a morning market in Nonthaburi Province to support Kanyaporn Kaewthip, a candidate for Member of Parliament in Constituency 1. Anutin emphasized his commitment to achieving results rather than pleading for votes.
According to Thai News Agency, Anutin interacted warmly with both the public and candidates from the Democrat Party, including Mr. Nanthin Panichkul and Ms. Supansa Yenpetch, who were also campaigning in the same area. He commented on Prime Minister's good looks and wished him success, while highlighting the government's accomplishments. Anutin's familiarity with Nonthaburi stems from his five-year residence there during his tenure as Minister of Public Health and Commerce.
The campaign event was vibrant, with market-goers, including vendors, greeting Anutin and requesting photos. Anutin's stroll through the market included a moment where he bought fried oysters and assisted an elderly woman who was breathless from excitement at meeting him. Villagers also expressed concerns about the Thai-Cambodian border issue, to which Anutin responded with empathy.
Amidst cheers of "Fight on!" and comments on the Prime Minister's appearance, Anutin engaged with the crowd, posing for photos on a campaign bicycle and enjoying coconut water. He noted the positive response from the public and reiterated his commitment to addressing local issues.
Anutin articulated a strategy focused on leveraging familiarity and understanding of local problems over traditional vote-begging tactics. He stressed the importance of building public trust and confidence, stating that genuine accomplishments would naturally attract voter support.
