Bhumjaithai Party (BJT; Thai: พรรคภูมิใจไทย, RTGSPhak Phumchai Thai, IPA: [pʰák pʰuːm.t͡ɕaj tʰaj]; lit.'Thai Pride Party') was founded on 5 November 2008, in anticipation of the 2 December 2008 Constitutional Court of Thailand ruling that dissolved its "de facto predecessor", the Neutral Democratic Party, along with the People's Power Party (PPP), and the Thai Nation Party. After the dissolutions, former members of the Neutral Democratic Party and former members of the PPP faction, the Friends of Newin Group defected to this party.

Bhumjaithai has a populist platform, since some of the platform was drawn from Thaksin Shinawatra's populist Thai Rak Thai party and the People's Power Party.[9] The party has a strong base in Buriram Province.
