People Power Party split on Thursday afternoon on the re-nomination of Samak Sundaravej for the post of prime minister.
If Samak is nominated in the Parliament to take the post of prime minister on Friday, a group of 70 PPP MP will abstain, said PPP MP Preecha Rengsombunsuk.
The group will not attend a meeting of the party scheduled around 6pm, he said.
