BANGKOK: The newly installed Senate was inaugurated on Wednesday (July 10), following the EC’s certification of the results of the 2024 Senate election that saw 200 elected senators and a reserve list of 100 approved.

One senator-elect, Kordiyah Song-ngam, was temporarily suspended due to her advisory role to the president of the Ang Thong Provincial Administration Organisation.
