Thai property tycoon Srettha Thavisin has been elected as the new prime minister of Thailand following a decisive win in a parliamentary vote.
The 60-year-old Thavisin’s victory in the parliamentary vote, with the support of two-thirds of the assembly, ends weeks of political uncertainty that followed an election held 100 days ago.
Srettha Thavisin’s election as prime minister ushers in a new era of coalition politics.
He faces the challenging task of holding together a potentially fragile coalition government, which includes parties affiliated with the royalist military.
The military, notorious for orchestrating coups in 2006 and 2014 that toppled Pheu Thai (a major Thai political party) governments, holds a significant stake in this coalition.
