Thai Prime Minister survives no-confidence vote

Thai Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra survived a no-confidence vote in parliament on Wednesday, defeating a challenge from opposition parties. 

After a two-day censure debate in which the opposition attacked 38-year-old Paetongtarn's management of the country and her inexperience, MPs voted down the no-confidence motion by 319 votes to 162, with seven abstentions.

Paetongtarn, who is from the Pheu Thai Party, has maintained her position as prime minister despite the challenges, which signals her political resilience.
