BANGKOK (Reuters) -Thailand's embattled Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra faced the prospect of losing her government's majority on Friday, as a vital coalition partner looked set to demand her resignation and senators launched a legal bid to remove her from office.
Paetongtarn, the politically inexperienced daughter of divisive tycoon and former premier Thaksin Shinawatra, is fighting fires on multiple fronts, struggling to breathe life into a stagnant economy facing steep U.S. tariffs and under pressure to take a tougher stand on a territorial row with Cambodia that has seen their troops mobilise at the border.
