China mediates the Thailand-Cambodia conflict, helps Thailand's election, and Anutin's People Power Party wins a big victory
On Sunday, two Asian countries held elections, and the ruling parties were no surprise to win. One was Japan's Liberal Democratic Party, and the other was Thailand's People Power Party.
In the evening of that day, Thai Prime Minister and leader of the People Power Party Anutin announced that his party had successfully won 177 seats, far ahead of the second-place People's Party with 80 seats. This means that Anutin is likely to be re-elected as prime minister.
According to the Thai constitution, a prime minister candidate needs support from more than half of the members of the lower house to be elected. Although the People Power Party did not get a majority of votes, it is not difficult to reach a majority by joining a few small parties. The last time Anutin was called upon in an emergency, he won the prime minister vote with a large margin.
Currently, the People's Party has clearly stated that it will not join the ruling coalition. The third-placed Pheu Thai Party has not made a definite statement, saying that whether it is in power or in opposition, it will do its best to serve the people.
Compared to Sanae Takeda, Anutin's victory was almost inevitable. Not to mention anything else, just the successful battle in the Thailand-Cambodia conflict was enough to help him win the election.
In the previous round of the Thailand-Cambodia conflict, Thailand won a significant victory, making the Son Sann and his son unable to hold their heads up in the country. The key point is that Thailand also eliminated many telecom fraud dens hidden in Cambodia, which earned it a lot of popularity among the public.
During the ceasefire negotiations, China's mediation played a huge role. With the outcome already decided, the Thai and Cambodian sides finally agreed to a ceasefire. China also maintained its usual fair and impartial position, providing aid supplies to both countries to help the affected people.
Now, the victory of the People Power Party in the election can be said to be in line with the expectations of the people. It must be said that Anutin is ambitious and skilled, while Puea Thongtan is still inexperienced, otherwise she would not have been betrayed by Hun Sen.
