Pita maintains, however, that iTV's loss of its concession means it cannot be considered a mass media organisation. "I am very confident that I am not unfit to run for office and to be a candidate for prime minister," he said, referring to candidate qualifications. Pita, 42, has said the shares were part of his late father's estate, which he has declared to the anti-graft agency. The election commission's chairman at the weekend said the complaints were being examined and further evidence was being gathered. Pita has formed an alliance with seven other parties but faces an uphill battle to woo members of an unelected, conservative-leaning Senate to back him in a legislative vote on a prime minister, which is expected by August.

Move Forward's main coalition partner would be the Pheu Thai party, backed by the billionaire Shinawatra family that was - until now - the main challenger of the conservative, military-backed royalist establishment that has held power for the last decade. Pheu Thai, which won the last five general elections but got pushed out of power each time, secured 141 seats, according to the latest projections, only 10 fewer than Move Forward. "There are many obstacles that Move Forward and Pheu Thai have to overcome." Full-time politics came in 2019, when Pita entered parliament with 80 other members of the Future Forward Party. To become prime minister, Pita must also navigate the upper house.
Thanathorn susține că acordul cu AstraZeneca nu a fost transparent, iar Siam Bioscience a primit un avantaj injust față de alte companii. Se întâmplă ca acționarul companiei să fie însuși regele”, a declarat el într-un interviu pentru Reuters. Guvernul a comandat 61 de milioane de doze de vaccin AstraZeneca și 2 milioane de doze de CoronaVa produs de Sinovac Biotech. Atât AstraZeneca, cât și Siam Bioscience au refuzat să comenteze acuzațiile lui Thanathorn. Una dintre surse a declarat că aprobarea se aplică numai în cazul dozelor fabricate în străinătate.
