BANGKOK: The biggest party in Thailand's caretaker government will meet on Thursday (Aug 15) to choose a successor for dismissed former premier Srettha Thavisin, as it races to shore up its alliance a day ahead of a pivotal parliamentary vote on a new prime minister.
Recently dismissed Thailand 's Prime Minister, Srettha Thavisin speaks to members of media after Thailand 's Constitutional Court ruled on dismissal case at the Government House, in Bangkok, Thailand , on Aug 14, 2024. BANGKOK: The biggest party in Thailand 's caretaker government will meet on Thursday to choose a successor for dismissed former premier Srettha Thavisin , as it races to shore up its alliance a day ahead of a pivotal parliamentary vote on a new prime minister.
Srettha was the movement's fourth premier to be removed by a court ruling and his downfall could indicate the end of an uneasy detente between Thaksin and his enemies in the conservative elite and military old guard, which had enabled the tycoon's return from self-exile in 2023 and ally Srettha to become premier the same day.
Lawmakers allied with the military had then closed ranks to block the anti-establishment election winner Move Forward from forming a government, but rallied behind Srettha and Pheu Thai in a second vote six weeks later.
