Politics of Thailand Political parties Elections

The party contested the 2019 Thai general election, fielding candidates in 226 constituencies and submitting 26 party list names.^[4] It did not win any of the constituencies, but gained one party list seat^[5] and joined the government coalition headed by the Palang Pracharath Party.

On 8 August 2019, party leader Mongkolkit said that Thai Civilized and four other parties would withdraw from the government coalition due to the parties not being assigned any cabinet positions, forming an "independent opposition" separate from the existing coalition.^[6] However, following talks, the other parties announced that they would not leave the coalition, thus causing Thai Civilized to leave the government alone, officially doing so on 13 August 2019.^[7][8]
