Pheu Thai Party

The Pheu Thai Party is a major political party in Thailand, known for its populist policies and strong support among rural voters. It was founded in 2007 as a successor to the Thai Rak Thai Party, which was led by former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra. The party has been influential in Thai politics, advocating for social welfare programs and economic reforms. Recently, it has gained attention for its commitment to implementing a maximum fare policy of 20 baht for all electric train lines in Bangkok and surrounding areas, a move aimed at easing the cost of living for the public.
