The Democrat party is all set to nominate its leader Abhisit Vejjajiva while the pro-Thaksin parties plan to nominate Pracha Promnok, leader of Pheu Pandin party.
Abhisit Vejjajiva, 44 was born in England, and graduated from Oxford University with a Bachelor's degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics. He is one of a very few Thai politicians who looks handsome.
It is going be a neck-to-neck race for the premiership as the vote of every single MP counts.
The Democrats are quite worried after news that the Pheu Thai Party is offering 50 million Baht to each MP who report sick and don't show up for the vote. Millions are being offered for MPs who change their minds.
Whether Abhisit becomes the 27th prime minister of Thailand or not remains to be seen in the hours to come. The session starts at 9am today.
Thailand might just get a handsome young prime minister today.
