Bangkok: Anutin Charnvirakul, Thailand's Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, has declined to comment on the opposition's decision to host a seminar at the Pullman King Power Rangnam Hotel. The event, scheduled for Saturday, August 29, aims to present evidence of collusion in the Senate elections.

According to Thai News Agency, Anutin dismissed the significance of the opposition's choice of venue, suggesting it was unrelated to him. When asked about the potential symbolism of hosting the event at the Pullman Hotel, Anutin humorously remarked, "Oh, thank you for your patronage," and noted it as a gesture of support for a friend's business. He further commented on his friendly relations with the hotel's owner, saying, "The Pullman is owned by the owner of King Power, right? We're good friends. Thank you for your patronage."

When questioned about any deeper implications of holding the seminar at the Pullman Hotel, Anutin maintained his stance, stating, "I don't know. It has nothing to do with me." His remarks underscored a distancing from the opposition's activities and any potential controversies surrounding the venue choice.
