Người Thái sẽ bỏ phiếu vào Chủ nhật cho cuộc tổng tuyển cử quyết định chính phủ tiếp theo của quốc gia Đông Nam Á.
Kể từ khi hạ viện bị giải tán vào ngày 20 tháng 3, các đảng chính trị và các ứng cử viên thủ tướng của họ đã tích cực vận động để giành được sự ủng hộ từ hơn 52 triệu cử tri đủ điều kiện của đất nước.
Từ Bangkok đến thành phố phía bắc Chiang Mai cho đến những nơi khác, Nikkei Asia đã nắm bắt được sự nhiệt tình ngày càng tăng của đất nước về cuộc tổng tuyển cử đầu tiên sau bốn năm trong vài tuần qua.
