Thailand's parliament has voted for Paetongtarn Shinawatra, the 37-year-old daughter of former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, to become the country's next prime minister. This decision follows the ousting of former Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin by the Constitutional Court over an ethics violation. Paetongtarn, if endorsed by King Maha Vajiralongkorn, will be Thailand's second female and youngest prime minister. She is expected to secure majority support from the Pheu Thai-led coalition in the lower house. Her nomination continues the influence of the Shinawatra family, with her father and aunt previously serving as prime ministers. This political shift comes amid ongoing tensions between populist factions and the pro-royalist military establishment.
