According to the source, Bhumjaithai won the most seats in Thailand’s February 8, 2026 election but fell short of a majority, prompting a coalition agreement with Pheu Thai and smaller parties. The deal may stabilize government formation in the near term while accelerating longer-run political realignment toward the People’s Party as the main opposition force.
Angus Taylor’s elevation to Liberal leader and Jane Hume’s election as deputy provide internal clarity and factional balance, but the party faces an immediate test with a volatile byelection in Farrer following Sussan Ley’s resignation. The document suggests the Liberals’ larger challenge remains unresolved: containing right-flank competition while rebuilding credibility and competitiveness in metropolitan seats amid a difficult economic backdrop.
Preliminary Election Commission results indicate Bhumjaithai’s decisive win, positioning Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul to form the next government with multiple coalition options. The outcome reflects heightened security-driven nationalism and strong provincial networks, while raising questions about the depth of economic reform and the persistence of underlying political contention.
Malaysia’s proposal to study an elected Kuala Lumpur mayor has triggered strong pushback from PN and UMNO-linked voices, with critics warning of politicisation and representation concerns. The outcome will hinge on legal-constitutional design and whether the government can manage race-sensitive narratives while addressing DBKL governance weaknesses cited in local reporting.
EIA data show China is installing renewables at world-leading scale and has already surpassed its 2030 wind-and-solar capacity target, yet coal still dominates primary energy and power generation. EV adoption and policy-driven refinery restructuring are slowing oil-demand growth, while gas infrastructure, storage, and strategic stocks reinforce energy security.
