Quick Glance: Thai court to decide on challenge to derailed PM bid by election winners
  • Thailand's Constitutional Court will decide on Wednesday whether to review a parliamentary decision that blocked Move Forward, the election winners, from making a second prime ministerial bid.

  • The court's decision could either end or prolong weeks of political deadlock.

  • The court must determine if Move Forward's challenge to the legislators' decision on July 19 is valid, which prevented Pita from being nominated for premier for a second time after his initial failure.

  • If the court declines to review the decision, parliament could schedule a vote within days on the prime ministerial candidacy of Srettha Thavisin, a businessman and political newcomer from the second-place Pheu Thai Party.
