Thailand's parliament has elected Patongtarn Shinawatra as the Prime Minister. He is the country's youngest Prime Minister. Just two days ago, Thailand's Supreme Court removed Prime Minister Shretha Thavisin from office. He was accused of violating ethics rules by appointing an ex-convict in the cabinet.
Patongtarn, 37, is the youngest daughter of former Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra. In addition to her father, her aunt Yingluck has also served as Prime Minister of Thailand, making her Thailand's youngest and second female Prime Minister.
Shinawatra is the third member of his family to reach this position. His father Thaksin Shinawatra returned to the country only last year after 15 years of exile. Thaksin was first elected as Prime Minister in 2001 but was exiled after the coup in 2006. Patongtarn is said to be very popular in Thai politics. In the last election too, she campaigned vigorously despite being pregnant. Her Pheu Thai party finished second in the 2023 election.
