Possible candidates for the seat that have been reported in Thai news include:

- MFP deputy leader Natthawut Buaprathum
- Pheu Thai leader Chonlanan Srikaew
- Prachachart leader Wan Muhamad Noor Matha
Prachachart secretary-general Tawee Sodsong stated before the meeting that today's agenda will primarily focus on the 23-point MOU that they signed on May 22.

He mentioned that the discussion regarding ministerial seats will be addressed at a later time.
Pita Limjaroenrat, the leader of the Move Forward party, stated that today's discussion will focus on the specifics of implementing the 23-point MOU.

He mentioned that the coalition intends to convene regularly, either on a weekly or bi-weekly basis, to address this matter.
He said the discussions will not be about which party will get which ministerial seat, and the discussions will be based on the people's problems first, before assigning those who are best suited to fix them.
