Chuwit Kamolvisit, a former notorious king of the Thai massage parlor business is campaigning for the 2008 Bangkok Governor Elections again this time, after finishing third in the Bangkok Governor Elections back in 2004.
Chuwit, contesting as candidate #8, is seen in posters all around Bangkok with a very serious look on his face and a large pair of binoculars in his hands with a message that reads "I see the problem" or "Phom maung hen panha" in Thai. Chuwit is good at making news headlines.

Apirak Kosayodhin, candidate #5, who won the race for governor four years ago, is preparing to seek a second term as governor of the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration. Apirak also has a website to promote his campaign at www.futurebangkok.net. One of his campaign posters reads "we share joys and sorrows with Bangkok people".

Leena Jang (Leena Jungjanja), candidate #7, is also contesting again this time after being famously disqualified during the 2004 Bangkok Gubernatorial elections, when she led her cabaret dancing team outside Centre Point in Siam Square on the back of a pickup truck to gain the attention of voters. She is offering free community bus travel in her current campaign, as seen in her posters.

Another interesting candidate to watch out for this time is candidate #2 Dr. Kriangsak Charoenwongsak, or Dr. Dan as he calls himself. He too has a website for his campaign at www.DrDanCanDo.com. Dr. Dan is targeting the younger generation using social networking sites like Hi5, and has web blogs. In his posters, he uses attractive keywords like WIMAX 75 Mbps internet, T Zone for Teen, safety for women, GPS in pubic buses, quick garbage pickup service, war with rats and cockroaches, fresh oxygen - beautiful and greener Bangkok, Say hi (all Bangkok schools to be bilingual), sky-trains throughout the city, and so on.
