The Thai parliament will vote to elect a new prime minister on August 16

According to the news on August 14, the Thai parliament is scheduled to hold a vote to elect a new prime minister on August 16.

Previously, on the same day in the afternoon, the Thai Constitutional Court ruled on the case regarding the qualification of Prime Minister Srettha's position, determining that the appointment of Pijit as the minister of the Prime Minister's Office during the cabinet reshuffle in April this year was illegal. Prime Minister Srettha, who is directly responsible, has had his position terminated. Srettha said he accepted the verdict, and the acting prime minister is rushing back to Thailand from abroad.

The prime minister of Thailand is elected by a vote of all members of both houses of the parliament. This new prime minister election has attracted much attention. Previously, the political situation in Thailand has been changeable, and various political forces have competed fiercely. Political parties have long been actively preparing, and candidates have also been striving for support with all their efforts. Analysts point out that the election result will play a key role in Thailand's future political direction, economic development, and social policies.

All sectors of Thai society are eagerly expecting the new prime minister to lead the country towards a more stable and prosperous future. The international community is also closely following this important political process. Currently, the specific support rates of each candidate and the final trend of the election remain variable, but the vote on August 16 is undoubtedly a crucial moment in Thailand's political process.
