Following Future Forward with Aim Sinpeng
Summary
Aim Sinpeng from the University of Sydney joins NIAS Director Duncan McCargo to talk about the Future Forward Party - a progressive new party that took third place in the March 2019 Thai elections, only to be banned less than a year later by the Constitutional Court. Aim shares insights from her many interviews with Future Forward MPs and candidates to explain how the new party performed so well electorally, despite rejecting traditional campaigning methods in local areas. This is a fascinating conversation about one of the hottest issues affecting Thai politics in recent years.
