After winning elections in 1963 and 1967, he was removed from power in 1968 by the military. He is to date Kuthina's longest serving Premier for a single term. | |||||||||

| Prince Chennoi took power via the Princely Coup, which had the support of the king. Much of his administration was spent dealing with a worsening position in the Siamat War, ongoing and expanding RLM and other ethnic separatist group terrorism, and a declining economic situation. His harsh suppression of student protests in 1974, which saw a massacre in Mahakram which killed 74, saw further protests erupt. As the situation worsened he resigned, after being warned of an imminent coup. |  Chulalongkorn (1971-1977) | ||||||||

22th July 1974 | 12th March 1978 | 3 years, 233 days | 1974 | Phak Prachathipat | ||
| Masaki oversaw the 'Second Flowering', a period of restored democracy in Kuthina. His Democratic Party was a broad-church centre-right party. Until 1976 it governed as part of a national coalition. Masaki faced criticism for his handling of the Shimazhen Energy scandal, in which a number of Democratic delegates were accused of corrupt dealings with the Shimazhen corporation. This led to his party's defeat in the 1978 election. |  Takdanai (1977-1985) | ||||||||

Yuuiti Osaki (1914-1987) |
12th March 1978 | 29th April 1984 | 6 years, 48 days | 1978 1981 |
Khonnganmai | ||
| Osaki led the New Worker's Party to victory in the 1984 elections. With the 'Pink bloc' coalition he continued Kurusatienkit's reforms and Masaaki's democratisation efforts. His attempts to tackle the military and seek peace with the RLM saw several failed coups attempted against his government. The most serious, the Chamlong Putsch, was thwarted by nationwide strikes which allowed Yuichi's government to return to the capital after three weeks. The support of the king was considered an essential factor to his survival. He resigned after the failure of his negotiations with the RLM to demilitarise. | |||||||||
