The Supreme Court ruled on Thursday (3 August) to ban former Palang Pracharath MP Thanikan Pornpongsaroj from running in elections for life, after she allegedly asked another MP to vote on her behalf during a parliamentary session in 2019.

The Election Commission of Thailand (ECT) has released the final vote count of the 2023 general election, but said that it still has to ensure that no fraud has occurred before it can announce the certified result.

The Election Commission (EC) clarified that a photo allegedly showing vote-buying in Amnat Charoen Province is false, and that in fact it shows the membership registration process of the Palang Pracharath Party. The Party leader said the photo was edited.
