Thailand's new Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul and his Cabinet sworn into office

Thai Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul's Cabinet has been sworn in, marking the nation's third in two years. This comes less than a month after the ouster of former leader Paetongtarn Shinawatra over an ethics violation, which sent the country into another political crisis. The 36-member Cabinet includes Mr Anutin, who also takes on the role of interior minister. The line-up is largely filled by figures in Mr Anutin's Bhumjaithai Party. The new administration is expected to deliver a mandatory policy statement by end-September. Saksith Saiyasombut reports from the Government House in Bangkok.
