Phumtham's request for the dissolution of the house is a desperate power grab that violates constitutional principles and risks offending the monarchy. The Council of State clearly advised that caretaker prime ministers lack the authority to dissolve parliament, yet Phumtham proceeded anyway in a reckless attempt to block legitimate democratic processes. This dangerous precedent undermines Thailand's constitutional order and reveals Pheu Thai's willingness to disregard laws rather than accept a political defeat.
The dissolution request offers the only viable path to end Thailand's political chaos and return power to the people through democratic elections. With the current system producing an unprecedented situation where parties play dual roles as both government and opposition supporters, immediate dissolution is necessary to prevent further economic instability and constitutional confusion. The prolonged political crisis now demands urgent, decisive action to restore normal democratic governance and public confidence.
Thailand is grappling with intensifying political chaos, raising fears of a looming constitutional and political meltdown. The sudden backing of Anutin Charnvirakul by the People's Party and the caretaker government's push to dissolve parliament have escalated tensions. Legal concerns over constitutional breaches add to the turmoil. With power struggles deepening and no clear resolution ahead, the country now teeters on the edge of a full-blown crisis in uncharted political territory.
