The candidates ticked off the Democrats’ election pledges of a 25 percent increase in the minimum wage, enhanced drug suppression, low-interest education loans and farmer supports. Their message of “politics for the people” was met with enthusiasm by supporters.

Jakkrit touted the record of party leader Abhisit Vejjajiva, saying the prime minister and Democrats have worked for the people over the past two years with programs offering free primary education, stipends for the elderly and farm guarantees.
