BANGKOK – His Majesty King Maha Vajiralongkorn has formally granted royal assent to Anutin Charnvirakul’s appointment for a second consecutive term as Thailand’s Prime Minister. The official proclamation was delivered on Friday by Secretary-General of the House of Representatives, Sirote Paetphan, during a ceremonial gathering at the Bhumjaithai Party headquarters.
The endorsement follows a decisive parliamentary procedure where Anutin secured the requisite majority support in a House of Representatives vote conducted on Thursday. This constitutional formality, held in the capital, marks the conclusive step in the domestic political process, transitioning the nation from electoral deliberations to governance formation.
With the royal command now issued, the procedural pathway is cleared for the subsequent establishment of a new cabinet and the delivery of a policy address before the parliament. This address is a mandatory constitutional prerequisite that must be fulfilled before the incoming administration can formally commence its governmental functions and exercise executive authority.
