Former prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra’s daughter and the newly elected new prime minister, Paetongtarn Shinawatra, have received a message of motivation and caution.

On Tuesday, Yingluck addressed a warm pleasant message to Ms. Paetongtarn on the X system, saying she was glad of her sister for choosing to be prime minister.

She also cautioned the new prime minister that, especially now that the nation is dealing with financial problems, she may have to deal with both stress and the high hopes of others. &nbsp,

She hoped that Ms. Paetongtarn had overcome all of her challenges and succeed in her new position, though.

” We have been faced with several instances and obstacles, and we were able to get through those with strength,” Yingluck said. I strongly believe that you will overcome any challenges and solve any challenges that may arise, and that you will undoubtedly succeed.”

Yingluck urged her sister to be open-minded and concerned about the emotions of those around her.

Ms. Paetongtarn is the second woman to hold the office of Thailand’s prime minister, succeeding her uncle Yingluck, whose girl was former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra.

Yingluck’s social career was cut short when she was removed from office by the judge and fled abroad in 2017 before being sentenced over her administration’s tainted rice-pledging system.

On September 27, 2017, the Supreme Court’s Criminal Division for Persons Holding Political Positions in absentia sentenced her to five years in prison for failing to stop the sale of corn in a deceptive and dishonest manner.

Her nephew Thaksin stated in April that he hopes to bring her home this season.
