Thailand has first transgender candidate for the Job of a Prime Minister



Pauline Ngarmpring began her new life as a transgender woman after transitioning at the age of 49.
He is the country's first transgender candidate for the post.


It is an unexpected turn of events for the former news reporter turned sports promoter, who has quickly embraced her role as an ambassador for LGBT rights and gender equality in a country with few openly gay or female political leaders.

"Politics was my interest for a long time, and as a man, I was often invited to join a political party. But I was not in the right frame of mind until after I transitioned," she said. "As a woman, I am comfortable and have nothing to hide. I am ready, but is Thailand ready to accept a transgender candidate?"




Thailand will hold a general election on March 24, its first since a military coup in 2014.
