Bangkok Phew Thai Party leader and real estate tycoon Sretha Thawisin has been elected Prime Minister of Thailand. It is reported that he won the necessary votes in the vote held in the Parliament on Tuesday. 375 votes were needed to prove the majority. However, with 20 more votes to be cast, one of the MPs collapsed in the House. With that, the polling was stopped, but it is reported that Sretha had confirmed her victory. Sretha’s victory marks the end of months of political uncertainty in the country. Efforts to form a government by the Move Forward Party, which won the elections held in May, have been unsuccessful. After that, Pheu Tai Party, who came second, got a chance. There are 11 parties in Sretha’s front, including two pro-military parties that were in the front of former Prime Minister Prayuth Chanocha.
