PPRP candidates call for Prawit to lead party againListen to this articleCandidates from the Palang Pracharath Party (PPRP) yesterday urged former party leader Gen Prawit Wongsuwon to return to lead the party, saying his departure left them uncertain and weakened campaign morale. Gen Prawit stepped down as party leader early this month, citing health reasons, shortly after withdrawing as the party's prime ministerial candidate. Treenuch Thienthong was appointed as the new party leader to lead the PPRP into the Feb 8 polls. Supasit Sorapatjirapong, a candidate in Chon Buri's Constituency 4, said candidates needed clear guidance from the party on campaign strategy and support for both constituency and party-list candidates. He said there was no nationwide campaign strategy in place, which contrasted sharply with the period when Gen Prawit led the party.
