Move Forward Party Secretary-General Chaithawat Tulathon has been tipped to become the new party leader, succeeding Pita Limjaroenrat who stepped down on September 15.

Pita is currently banned from performing his duties as an MP by the Constitutional Court, after the court accepted a petition to consider whether he held shares in a media outlet when he applied for electoral candidacy in the May 14^th general election, which would be in violation of the Constitution.

The secretary-general’s post is likely to be taken over by Apichart Sirisunthorn, while Parit Wacharasindhu is expected to become the party’s spokesman.

Move Forward deputy spokesperson Pakamon Noon-anan declined to confirm or deny the speculation on the reshuffle in the party, saying that they will make an official announcement this Saturday.
