Yingluck Congratulates Niece Paetongtarn on Becoming Thailand's PM

[webfact]

 

Former Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra has congratulated her niece, Paetongtarn Shinawatra, on her historic appointment as Thailand's 31st premier. This marks a significant moment for the Shinawatra family and Thailand’s political landscape, given Paetongtarn’s distinction as the country's youngest leader and its second female prime minister.

 

On Tuesday morning, Yingluck took to Facebook to share her pride, posting three heartwarming photographs: two of them together and one of Paetongtarn holding a large bouquet of roses. Yingluck, who was Thailand's 28th prime minister, expressed her admiration for her niece’s bravery in taking on the monumental responsibility of steering the nation forward.

 

Paetongtarn inherits a challenging role, particularly as Thailand grapples with pressing economic issues. In her congratulatory message, Yingluck acknowledged the significant pressures and high expectations Paetongtarn will face. However, she also expressed confidence in her niece’s resilience and willingness to heed advice, suggesting that these traits will serve her well in overcoming the obstacles ahead.

Yingluck is the youngest sister of former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, making Paetongtarn not only her niece but also Thaksin's daughter. This familial connection intensifies the spotlight on Paetongtarn, given the Shinawatras' prominent roles in Thailand's political history, reported TNA-MCOT.

 

Currently living in exile, Yingluck fled Thailand in 2017, just days before being sentenced in absentia for negligence related to a rice subsidy program. The Supreme Court's Criminal Division for Holders of Political Positions handed her a five-year prison sentence. Despite her own tumultuous political journey, Yingluck's support for Paetongtarn highlights the enduring influence of the Shinawatra family in Thai politics.

 

As Paetongtarn steps into her new role, the nation watches closely, hopeful yet cautious about the leadership and direction she will bring to Thailand.

So she was send this to five years so when she comes back, I’m predicting no jail time no hospital stay and I’ll be forgiven. There is absolutely no shame in Thailand for these people TIT
