Prayut faces censure but eyes keeping power in 2023 electionPrime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha chairing the Police Commission meeting at the Royal Thai Police office on June 20, 2022. He is encountering another tough test as he is set to face a fourth no-confidence motion. The issues are similar to those Gen Prayut had been accused of in a 2021 no-confidence motion. Gen Prayut, a former army general who led a military coup in May 2014, assumed the premier post of the military government in August that year. In Thailand, a prime minister is elected by votes cast by members of the lower house and junta-appointed senators.
