As the surprise winner of Thailand’s recent election tries to form a new government, some officials are saying, “not so fast.” Pita Limjaroenrat swept the vote by promising to take on the powers that be — Thailand’s military establishment — but election officials are threatening to ban him and, potentially, his victorious Move Forward party. A law in Thailand forbids candidates from owning shares in media companies; Pita inherited, from his deceased father, shares in a TV channel that went bust more than fifteen years ago. Election officials will soon rule on the case. The World’s Patrick Winn gives us the details.
