THE CEO of a lottery company is now moving to launch a new political party named “Plein” (Change) to resolve problems faced by lottery vendors and punters and other social issues, Thai Rath and Daily News newspapers said today (Jan. 16).
Mr. Pantawat Nakvisut, or Knot, CEO of the Lottery Plus Division of Lottery Online Co., Ltd., located in Sukhumvit Soi 63, said he had submitted party registration papers to the Election Commission on August 31, 2022 and is now wating for approval after which it would be open for membership.
“I will soon be opening a platform for people to voice thei opinions to determine the party’s policies. The focus is on social problems with what the party most wants to resolve is the problem surrounding the Thai government lottery and lottery vendors.
“Our policy is to sort out both overpriced lotteries and small vendors not having access to tickets priced at 70.40 baht.
“People don’t dare talk about this but my party volunteers to do so,” Pantawat said
