BANGKOK, Thailand – Pheu Thai Party has announced it will hold an extraordinary party congress on October 31 to elect a new party leader.
The move follows the resignation of Ms. Paethongtarn Shinawatra as party head, which led to the dissolution of the current executive committee. The outgoing committee now serves in an acting capacity until a new leadership is chosen.
In the interim, the party’s acting executives have appointed Mr. Chusak Sirinil, the acting deputy party leader, to serve as acting party head. The extraordinary congress will also elect a new executive committee to lead Pheu Thai in the next term.
The congress is scheduled to begin at 10:00 a.m. on October 31. (TNA)
