Executive Committee

As an heir to a politician, Jaruwan had the chance to experience politics since her early twenties. Coming from the world of a marketing student at a private institution, she dropped out for over a year to find a new experience in Uttaradit province. During her time there, she devoted herself to the task of listening and learning stories of the locals who struggle through their daily problems. That led her to an understanding but also to question whether survival should be the only answer for the Thai people, or is it the case that actually everyone deserves to live with the fullest of human dignity.

Why Future Forward

I seek changes, for the betterment of our country.’  With this reply, once he stated he is looking for more women to join with the Future Forward party, I volunteered myself.”
