No change in road map to election, Prayut assures
Prime minister Prayut Chan-o-cha yesterday insisted that the road map for national elections remain unaltered, dismissing suggestions that the junta will postpone the poll in light of the King’s coronation ceremony. This idea was floated by ultra royalists Arthit Ourairat and Chulcherm Yugala yesterday, who said the long-awaited general elections should be held after the coronation ceremony. The Royal Household Bureau announced on Tuesday that the coronation ceremony will be held from May 4 to 6.
