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.
