THAILAND’S King Maha Vajiralongkorn endorsed Anutin Charnvirakul as the country’s new prime minister on Sunday, Secretary-General of the House of Representatives Arpath Sukhanunth announced.
In a ceremony held at the Bhumjaithai Party headquarters, Arpath read out the royal command appointing Anutin as premier, as he received majority support in the parliamentary vote on Friday.
In his first official speech as prime minister, Anutin assured the public that his new government was fully committed to working tirelessly and with steadfast dedication to help Thailand swiftly overcome its current crises, despite several constraints in fulfilling duties.
Anutin said his administration would actively promote transparency and expedite legal proceedings where appropriate, emphasizing that the justice system must operate independently, in accordance with mechanisms outlined in the constitution and relevant laws.
