Who will become PM if Srettha is removed by a charter court ruling?


BANGKOK: Amid political turmoil, analysts are pondering over the future of the coalition government, including who will become Thailand’s 31st prime minister should incumbent Srettha Thavisin be removed by a court ruling in response to a petition filed by outgoing senators.

Six of the nine Constitutional Court judges on Thursday (May 23) voted to accept the petition from 40 senators seeking to remove Srettha as PM. The petition accused Srettha of violating political ethics by appointing Pichit Cheunban as PM’s Office Minister even though he had once been jailed for contempt of court.
