Bangkok: Paetongtarn Shinawatra, the daughter of Thai political heavyweight Thaksin Shinawatra, won the parliamentary vote to become Thailands’ youngest Prime Minister on Friday, days after her predecessor Srettha Thavisin was removed from office over an ethics code violation for appointing a minister who had served time in prison. She earlier passed the required threshold of 51 per cent votes required to win the backing of the Thai Parliament.
