BANGKOK (Bloomberg): Thailand’s parliament will convene for the first time after the May election, kicking off the process of government formation by a coalition of pro-democracy parties seeking to end almost a decade of military-backed and pro-royalist rule.
The new members of the 500-member House of Representatives will gather at the parliament at 5pm in Bangkok on Monday (July 3). King Maha Vajiralongkorn will address the gathering that will also be attended by the members of the military-appointed Senate and other dignitaries, according to officials.
