BANGKOK (Reuters) – The leader of the Move Forward Party that won Thailand’s election this week on Thursday said he was confident of being able to form a government that would be stable and balanced.
Leader Pita Limjaroenrat was speaking at a press conference as part of an alliance of eight parties worth about 312 lower house seats, short of the 376 votes needed from the 750-member bicameral legislature to vote in a prime minister to form a government. He also said he was not concerned about any pending cases against him seeking to disqualify him.
