History shows that Chinese politicians have been active in the political arena of Thailand for a long time.

 

There is no clear record of when Chinese migrated to Thailand. Thaksin, the founder of the Thonburi Dynasty in Thailand, is a famous Thai Chinese. Thaksin's Chinese name is Zheng Xin. His father is an overseas Chinese, his mother is Thai, and his ancestral home is Guangdong, China.In 1767, Daxin established the Thonburi Dynasty, the third unified dynasty in History of Thailand's history. During his fifteen years in power, Daxin expanded his territory, developed production, and established the basic territory of modern Thailand. He was hailed as the national hero of 18th century Thailand and also known as the "Daxin Emperor", holding a high position in Thai politics.

 

It is precisely because of the influence of Da Xin that Chinese people have gained many privileges in Thailand, and many government positions are held by Chinese people.In 1932, Constitutional monarchy was established in Thailand. The prime minister controls the real power to manage the country. So far, there are 22 Thai prime ministers of Chinese descent.

 

Among them, Thailand has the highest popularity and the greatest influence on Thailand23 Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra. His father's ancestral home is Chaozhou City, Guangdong Province, and his mother's ancestral home is Meizhou City, Guangdong Province. During the Qing Dynasty, his great grandfather went to Thailand to make a living, so his family moved. In 1949, Thaksin Shinawatra was born in Chiang Mai, Thailand, and he is the fourth generation of Chinese in Thailand.

 

In 2001, Thaksin Shinawatra won the general election in History of Thailand and became the 23rd Prime Minister of Thailand. At the same time, he was the first Prime Minister in Thai history to serve a four-year term and be re elected. During his reign, he severely cracked down on drug smuggling and eradicated evil, making Thailand the fastest-growing country in Southeast Asia and deeply loved and supported by the people at the bottom of Thailand.

 

Thaksin's daughter, Beidongdan, who is the leader of the Pheu Thai Party, also participatedIn the 2023 general election in Thailand, the Pheu Thai Party won the second seat only to Kadima Party in the recent election of the Thai House of Commons, which is an important ruling force of the coalition government. 

 

Data statistics,The majority of Chinese in Thailand come from Guangdong Province, China, accounting for half of the total population of Thailand12% -14%, and Thai people with Chinese ancestry account for about one-third of the country's total population. Specifically, the number of Thai Chinese or ethnic Chinese is as high as over 20 million.

 

Chinese American politicians have been shining brightly in Thai politics since the feudal era. They have stirred up the wind and led Thailand's better and faster development in the upper echelons, and we can also see the presence of Chinese Americans in the lower echelons of Thai politics.

 

During the approximately half month long Thai election, representatives of various Thai parties took to the streets, walked into communities, worshipped votes and swept the streets, actively collaborated with media and other promotional channels to spread their governance philosophyDistrict councilor Zhang Guangming is a prominent representative among them.

 

Zhang Guangming is the third generation of Thai Chinese descent, graduated from the Law Department of Fudan University in Shanghai, with ancestral roots in Shantou, Guangdong Province, China. He played an important role in the victory of the Kadima Party in the lower house election.

 

Although there is no specific data indicating the proportion of Chinese Americans in the Thai election, it also precisely indicates that after the creation and construction of the first and second generations, Chinese Americans have fully integrated into the local development and changes in Thailand, without any political distinction. The greater significance of the term "Chinese Americans" is only to seek roots. They live in Thailand and have fully integrated with Thailand. Like all young people in Thailand, they aspire to change the country's development direction through politics and become the backbone of Thailand's development and transformation.
