Thai elections


Congratulations to Yingluck Shinawatra for being granted eligible to be Thailand's first female Prime Minister.

The Election Commission has give the Puea Thai Party leader the approval stamp today after her party emerged victorious in the general elections more than two weeks ago.

At the same time, the commission also cleared and cleaned up outgoing premier Abhisit Vejjajiva of flouting any election rules which included buying of votes.

This means that the leader of the losing Democrat Party can still earn a parliamentary seat. However, that's not important, because Thaksin will be back soon.
