Sompong Amornwiwat was re-elected as leader of the main opposition Pheu Thai Party on Thursday, less than a week after he resigned the post on Saturday.

Sompong quit after his strategist Sudarat Keyuraphan and her team resigned their posts the day before. All remain members of the party.

The change in Pheu Thai leadership comes after days of rumours that Potjaman na Pombejra, former wife of ousted PM Thaksin Shinawatra, has taken de facto control of the party and wants to restore it to its former glory. High-ranking party members have dismissed speculation that the party is about to join the coalition government, insisting it remains committed to leading the opposition.

Thursday’s meeting also selected 10 new deputy party leaders. These are Anudith Nakornthap, Kittiratt Na-Ranong, Chusak Sirinil, Kriang Kantinan, Suthin Khlangsaeng, Chaiya Promma, Anusorn Eamsaard, Yutthapong Jaratsatian, Somsak Chantapink, and Pichai Naripthaphan.

Meanwhile Nakhon Ratchasima MP Prasert Chantarawongthong was selected as Pheu Thai secretary general, and Arunee Kasayanond as spokesperson.
