Shock Exit Of Thai PM Srettha Thavisin

Thailand’s Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin has been removed from office after a court ruled he had violated the constitution, in a shock decision that plunges the kingdom into further political uncertainty. This move was a surprise to many including Thai observers as Thavison had only been in power for slightly less than a year. Michael Montesano, Associate Senior Fellow, ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute will be helping us unpack the implications of this move
