JAKARTA - Thailand's Constitutional Court (MK) said Prime Minister Sretta Thavisin violated ethical rules for the appointment of a cabinet. Sretta appointed a lawyer who served a prison sentence to join his cabinet.

The judges are reading out the verdict in the case requesting the dismissal of Srettha.

Reported by Reuters on Wednesday, August 14, Thailand's Constitutional Court has yet to announce whether Thai PM will remain in office. Sretta denies making a mistake.

Previously, Thai Prime Minister Sretta Thavisin had been highlighted for 'going around a number of countries' during his first 10 months as leader of Southeast Asian countries.

Sretta, a real estate tycoon and newcomer to the political field who became prime minister in August 2023, made 15 overseas visits and promised to stop for two months in March in response to public criticism.

Some of these visits were unavoidable, he said, referring to the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN)'s official visit, as well as to China and Japan.
