A meeting of the leaders of the eight-party alliance agreed to meet every week until it can formally take power.
A meeting of the leaders of the eight-party alliance, which holds a clear majority in the 500-member House of Representatives, agreed on Tuesday to meet every week until it can formally take power, said Pita Limjaroenrat, Move Forward’s leader and the bloc’s prime minister candidate.
"We insist that our work is going well and we will stay united,” Pita told reporters in Bangkok, adding the claim over the house speaker’s job will be settled as soon as possible and it won’t come in the way of government formation. The allocation of cabinet positions will also be discussed later, he said.
Even though the coalition commands a clear lower house majority, the Harvard-educated Pita still faces opposition from a majority of the 250-member upper house Senate that also gets to vote on prime minister until early 2024.
