The Thai Sang Thai Party (Thai: พรรคไทยสร้างไทย, romanized: Phrrkh thịy s̄r̂āng thịy; lit. 'Thai Build Thai Party') is a Thai political party founded in 2021 by people formerly from the Pheu Thai Party led by Sudarat Keyuraphan.[6]
The Thai Sang Thai Party was registered with registration number 3/2564 on 23 March 2021, with Sa-is Boran and Wallop Chai-thaisong as the first party leader and general secretary. The first official party headquarters was in Nong Song Hong District, Khon Kaen Province,[7] but the party's coordination center in Bang Khen District, Bangkok, was used as a temporary party office.[8] New official headquarters were then built on Thoet Rachan Road, Sikan Subdistrict, Don Mueang District, with a pillar-raising ceremony held on 6 April 2022.[9][10]
Thai Sang Thai officially began its activities with an event on 10 December 2021, which considered the policy of the party.[11] On 22 March 2022, the party decided to nominate aviation officer Sita Tiwaree as candidate for governor of Bangkok in 2022.[12] Along with the nomination of candidates for the Bangkok Council in all 50 constituencies on 30 March.[13]
In July 2022, following the news that several party members had returned to Pheu Thai Party, Sudarat stated that this was not a problem and the party would continue its work in full.[14][15][16]
