An investor looks at a wall of red at Asia Plus Securities' stock board. The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) index closed on Monday at 1,638 points, down 13.68 points or - 0.83%, in turnover worth 40.7 billion baht. Monday's decline was the steepest in Asean, higher than the 0.41% slump in the Jakarta Composite index. If the Thai Raksa Chart party is dissolved, the other pro-Thaksin party Pheu Thai could lose more seats to opposition parties, said Mr Prakit. Thai Raksa Chart is viewed as an offshoot of Pheu Thai and was established about a decade ago before rebranding and relaunching late last year.
