Thailand's PT Party backs Yingluck as prime minister candidate

BANGKOK, December 12 (TNA) - Thailand's Pheu Thai Party announced Thursday that Yingluck Shinawatra would remain its prime-minister pick for the next general election, set for February 2nd 2014. Pheu Thai Party Leader Jarupong Ruangsuwan, who is Acting Interior Minister, also urged the Democrat Party not to boycott the polls, so that the people would be given more choice to decide who should run the country. Jarupong added that he was worried violence could disrupt the voting process, which would be detrimental to the country, saying that he would like to call on Suthep Thuagsuban of the People's Democratic Reform Committee to listen and accept what the majority of Thais say.
