BANGKOK : The Pheu Thai Party, backed by former premier Thaksin Shinawatra, is bringing more partners into its coalition as it tries to break the political gridlock that has gripped Thailand since the May 14 election. Six junior parties will join the alliance established earlier this week by second- and third-place election winners, Pheu Thai (141) and Bhumjaithai Party (71), said Pheu Thai leader Cholnan Srikaew at a press conference on Wednesday (Aug 9). The six parties have 16 seats in total, raising the total number of coalition MPs to 228.
