Thailand's opposition leader Pita Limjaroenrat said on Monday he was ready to become the next prime minister, after his Move Forward Party finished first in an election that crushed parties allied with the military-backed establishment.

But complex negotiations lie ahead, including with fellow opposition party Pheu Thai, as they seek to build a governing coalition.THITINAN PONGSUDHIRAK, CHULALONGKORN UNIVERSITY

"However, the very strong result for the Move Forward party... makes the coalition-building process that will come next difficult, as much of its agenda, like the reform of the lese majeste law, is unacceptable to the conservative forces who dominate the Thai Senate.

"Move Forward's reform agenda puts the military and monarchy in the direct crosshairs so tensions could heighten if the next government moves aggressively on its campaign pledges.""Move Forward cannot take anything for granted. Pita has assumed that they can form a government with Pheu Thai. But there is still the equation that Bhumjaithai may gather others and Pheu Thai as well to form another type of coalition.
