Prawit denies poll date extension
Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister Prawit Wongsuwan yesterday (Nov 16, 2018) dismissed a rumor that the government is considering extending the date of the next general election, the Thai-language daily Matichon reported.
Mr Prawit also dismissed the speculation that Prime Minister Prayut Chan-ocha might meet former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, who is now in Singapore.
“The election date has been set for February 24, 2019 and I see no reason why it would be changed,” said Mr Prawit.
