BANGKOK -- Thai King Maha Vajiralongkorn has endorsed a new cabinet under the leadership of Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul, a royal command said on Tuesday.

According to the official Royal Gazette, the king appointed the 35-member cabinet as selected by Anutin, including seven deputy prime ministers and other ministers, following his re-election for a second term earlier this month.

The Bhumjaithai Party, whose leader, Anutin, also serves as interior minister, will lead the coalition government, holding the majority of cabinet seats. Its main coalition partner, the Pheu Thai Party, will command eight ministerial posts.

Key ministers from the previous administration remain in place, including Finance Minister Ekniti Nitithanprapas, Commerce Minister Suphajee Suthumpun, and Foreign Affairs Minister Sihasak Phuangketkeow.

The endorsement paves the way for the new cabinet to take an oath of allegiance before the king and present its policy statement to parliament, a final step required before a new administration officially takes office.
