- Who is Paetongtarn Shinawatra, Thailand’s New & Youngest Prime Minister? | Vantage with Palki Sharma
The 37-year-old daughter of billionaire Thaksin Shinawatra has become Thailand's Prime Minister. Paetongtarn Shinawatra -- the youngest leader in Thailand's history as a constitutional monarchy and the second woman premier after her aunt Yingluck -- assumes office after two court rulings that threw the kingdom's politics into turmoil. Can she avoid the same fate as her father? Palki Sharma tells you.

The only reason she could become the prime minister is because of her father's influence and connection. Without her father, she has nothing special.
Soo the actual prime minister is her father not her
They just gonna do what they did last time. Promise stuff. Take the money... Blame opposition.
AND. Take national assets, sell it. Keep the money.
ไม่จริง..
Wish u the best❤❤
Một nữ thủ tướng trẻ 37 tuổi lên nắm quyền đúng thời điểm cả Châu Á đang xung đột quân sự là rất mạo hiểm ,mặc dù có người cha cố vấn nhưng tuổi trẻ thường cá tính và bốc đồng nên nếu mắc một sai lầm sẽ phải trả giá rất đắt trong bối cảnh khu vực Đông Nam Á đang chiến tranh biên giới.dù sao cũng chúc nữ tướng mới này đủ mạnh mẽ và thông minh để tiến lên
She helps Thai military and monarch to force her coalition partner popularly elected 'Pita' out of the game, put her own party member into PM office, a year later, got him boo out of office, now placing herself as the next Thailand PM to continue her father Dynasty. A game well played indeed.
Whole world laughing 🤣😂🤣
Give her chance ❤❤❤
Have no fear ! One day is good, 10-days is good, and full term is good
From Father then his sister and now is his youngest daughter Paetongtarn. Wow Thailand you never learn. Like came out of the horror movie. I guess they love scary movie.🤭🤭😂☠️
These are countries where some family are so worshiped
same with MARCO philipine..father is president, and son is president..
We elect them, what is your problem? Although PT party didn't come first in election, they had beaten the rigged system to the government despite having appointed senate votes as obstacles. The Orange MFP had their chances but came out short and always blamed others but themselves.
@@FahadAbubakari I’ll have to smell Shinawatra’s corruption on Thai national television all over again.🤭🤣
@@hvwj86 n the father is going to rule that country from the back door.
She has 2 ‘PM’ to guide her.
She’s intelligent and well immersed in politics from a young age. Don’t think it will be an issue for her to run the country.
Thaksin himself is very popular and liked especially in the North Eastern Thailand, Isaan.
A vast areas about 1/3 of Thailand with many provinces.
p.s. Let’s not be a judge & Jury here.
I think you a bit out of date and must have missed out on the orange wave of Move Forward that swept the country and won the last election but was not allowed to take power by the dinosaurs. Thaksin is now 75, spent 15 years abroad and his brand has faded significantly. The die hard red shirts in the North and Northeast, who still love Thaksin, are mainly over 50s. His old style image doesn't resonate much with the young in those areas.
We shall see how thailand crumbles with protests & unrests in months to come.
No country prevails with corruption.
Thaksin is no longer all that popular in the Northeast. The over 50s still love him but the young people see him as an irrelevant old geezer from the past and voted for Move Forward. A lot of the die hard over 50s red shirts left the party after he stabbed Move Forward in the back and formed a coalition with the military parties who had ousted Yingluck. We'll see how popular he and his daughter still are at the next election.
Paetongtarn Shinawatra is the new puppet for Thaksin just like his sister was (Yingluck) and his brother in law were and all found guilty of corruption.
Bravo! that's the most accurate and comprehensive contents regarding the new prime minister of Thailand.
Whoever made those script is really amazing.
Young leaders at the helm of affairs of a country are a good sign. But the right balance of maturity and experience along with youth energy and a proactive approach to run the affairs of the country make for an ideal PM/President .
Wow she's beautiful ! Her chief minister name is Good Luk ! 🤣🤣
Don't tell the King ! He probably does not know there is a new PM in Germany !
She won by 79% majority parliament vote of 391 out of 493, a feat unheard of in the west.😅
🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭😙😙😙😁😁😁❤
Because elections in the west are fair that's why.
Money politics
Everyone in Thai politics can see and knows what have been said. Its nothing new but just came out onto the air! Wish her well and hopefully she can unite the Thais and build the economy!
Hope she will sustain well and stay strong and do the best.🎉
Our congratulations for your appointment as Prime minister of Thailand 🇹🇭
Greetings from Sri Lanka
I visited Thailand 🇹🇭 twice a Buddhists Thailand 🇹🇭 country
I am a Aryan Sinhalese and a Theravada Buddhist from Sri Lanka
Blessings ✨️
2:14 And also the first woman Prime Minister of Thailand.
Won't be long before she will be ousted in a military coup. The PM job is a curse in Thailand.
The polical system is a curse. Plus, the elite (Royals and military) don't want to change anything. And anyone who thinks that the airhead in chief is good for the country needs to get his head examined
Family business 😂, Thailand has beautiful villages ❤
Yes, votes can be bought for a bag of rice.
❤❤❤❤❤

The downfall of dynastic politics, which is a key feature of the Shinawatra family’s political activities. If Paetongtarn is elected as prime minister, she will be the fourth person from the Shinawatra clan, following Thaksin himself, then Somchai (brother-in-law), Yingluck (younger sister), and Paetongtarn (daughter). This doesn’t even include other members of the clan who have entered politics, such as Jae Daeng, or people like Chaisit, whom Thaksin appointed as Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces when he was prime minister.
Why is dynastic politics the downfall of democracy? Because family ties are given more importance than actual abilities to perform duties within a democratic system. This blocks opportunities for those outside the family, other members of the party, or ordinary people with high capabilities but not enough power or money. They get sidelined simply because they aren’t part of the family. This monopolization of power fosters authoritarian political behavior because people voting in elections focus not on individual capabilities but on the family’s political influence. So, even if one claims that the people have elected them, it cannot be denied that this nurtures authoritarian behavior, where the choices for voters are predetermined.
Thaksin openly admitted himself that he doesn’t trust people outside his family. That’s why we rarely see Thaksin promoting outsiders to represent his family. 😅
Same familiar last name as previous Prime Ministers. Hope it works out.
" I hope I will do my best to move the country forward " . The word " I hope " should be changed to " I will " so as to express her strong determination.
Her downfall will be the doing of her corrupt dad who will face the constitution court for les majestic case which is jail term if convicted. Also I do foresee a coup if she does try to influence the court to help him and also bring her aunt convicted Yingluck back from exile.
You raise a good point. Thaksin wanted Sretta to stay on longer to do the digital wallet which might have landed him in jail, help him with his lese majeste case and bring Yingluck home. Now it is hard to do any of those things. He didn't mind the idea of Srettha going to jail for the digital wallet but can't afford to let this happen to Ung Ing who will come under attack for helping Thaksin and Yingluck get let off their criminal cases. Thaksin actually has to face the Criminal Court for his lese majese case, not the Constitutional Court.
I wonder how long it will take for Paetongtarn Shinawatra to get a criminal record for corruption as Prime Minister as the rest of her family have managed.
Typical Politicians in Asia 😂😂😂
How is that different in the west?
Literally OPPOSITE of what Star Plus says:
"Rishta nayi, soch wahi" 😂😂
❤❤
The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
power of money
Even with a tanking economy, Thailand's is still almost 3 times richer and more developed than India. So, please no condescension.😂😂😂
and thailand is declining.. lol.. while india is getting richer.. thailand has big problems with declining population and manufacturing sector that is moving to vietnam and indonesia.. thailand is the s*x capital of the world
I hope she does well!
She got a deal with the monarch 😐😐😐😐
When Burmese and Thai People Do Namaste I Melt
Any guess on how long she’ll hold office before she gets ousted for corruption charges? Taking bets here
😃😃😃😃👍👍✌️✌️❤
अब थाईलैंड के दुनिया में सभी देशों से सुमधुर संबंध हो जाएंगे क्योंकि इस सुंदरी पर तो सभी देशों के राष्ट्रीयध्यक्ष सम्मोहित हो जाएंगे
Whenever a Shinawatra takes power there are a few things you can count on: 1) It's just a matter of time before corruption rears its head and carefully calibrated protests pour out into the streets with lots of color and noise. 2) Blood is spilled and the tanks roll. 3) The army takes over and forms a ruling junta. 4) Or, of late, it's the courts that heed the call, and the Shinawatra family are forced back into exile in London or Dubai where the family owns mansions. Then a new government is hastily thrown together, sometimes without the benefit of elections. Since independence in 1932, Thailand has suffered 22 coups. But the US has a strong presence in the country via the state department and "affiliates." It's job is to steer Thailand out of China's orbit. The Shinawatras are aligned with China. That spells trouble from the outset.
so family politics like Gandhi's are not only in india
gandhi family of thailand ?
No it's worse than that.
@@Thinkbighead in thailand the power is in military hand and there is king , so who is power doesn't matter that much except some economic decision
Not 1 Not 2 but gen3 of corruptions
Thaksin Family got dislike from the Royal Family that’s why they got fabricated with fault corruption by court and people in higher power. 😅
Daughter of previous chief of intelligence accused ousted and exiled prime minister .. means the father is PM behind the scene ..
Will not raise the issues of Thais freedom justice equality and human rights plus accountability of the royal family 😂
Isn't Taksin a criminal?
Is there a politician globally that could not be classified that way?
Thaksin, corruption unlimited . A tragedy for the nation, a debt repaid by foolish monarch.
Possibly 1-2 years, its difficullt to survive more than that.
She has decided 😂
🌼🇩🇿
Billionaire??? Ohhhh huh...
CONGRATS PM PAETONGTARN! She went from flipping burgers at McDonald to become a PRIME MINISTER! 上海灘 😂😂😂
The country can not go Forward with Taksins Family Ruled the Country 30 years.
The world is so ticklish...and its laughing at the kingdom; kingdom?
excellent analysis and definitely unfiltered
❤❤❤❤she speaks English ❤
Hello! Coup is coming 😂
Indian people learn from this...!
US is put her office
The Gandhi , Marcos dynasty of Thailand . A power hungry family , so what is new ?
She will be gone in one year, so why the fuss.
Ung Ing should have stuck with flipping burgers at the Siam Square McDonalds. That's in line with her intelligence, skills and experience.
Jealous mak mak
What do you mean by chaos, Palki. It was quite a peace transition. Don't bullshit.
Dissolving pm sounds chaotic to me...
No riots, no color revulotion!
That is a disaster for Thailand.
same sht with bangledesh
Congratulations. Please give her a Chance to Govern.
Why she is memories her speech, it's time to do for the country,😂
Ur report no good r u ok look at other news
puppet minister.. she is not even eloquent and have no confidence in speaking.. lol
She wont last long 😂
She will be a puppet on a string
she too young and can not run the country..thailand will down hill..
Thaksin: the true subject of Rama X. Not those greedy uniformed men.
She’s a nonsense by my opinion.
you must be a genius
She is cute. But that is where the good part ends. Not the brightest bulb on this Christmas tree. She is In this position thanks to the family influence and their millions of dollars at Swiss banks.
The Thailand court will find fault to put her down. Because She was the former Thailand prime Minister...
Thailand 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
An appointed puppet on a string and a new dynasty in the making...
