In a historic move, 37-year-old Paetongtarn Shinawatra, the daughter of ousted billionaire Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, has been elected as Thailand's youngest prime minister. She takes over from her aunt and uncle, both former prime ministers, becoming the kingdom's second female premier. This development comes after the Constitutional Court sacked the previous premier, marking the latest turn in the ongoing power struggle between the military, pro-royalist establishment, and populist parties linked to Thaksin.
