    The Pheu Thai-led government is expected to assume office at the end of September, according to Deputy Prime Minister Wissanu Krea-ngam today (Wednesday).

     

    He explained that, even though there is a Royal command appointing Srettha Thavisin as the prime minister, he is still unable to start performing his duty because his cabinet is yet to be set up and take the oath of allegiance.

     

    He gave a timeline of about three weeks for a new government to assume office. It will require one week for the completion of the cabinet line-up, another week for the secretariat of the cabinet to check the qualifications of all the cabinet candidates and another week for all the new ministers, led by the prime minister, to take an oath before HM the King or his portrait.

    And of course to get the oath of allegiance right this time without any omissions.

  2. Today I received by mail from The UK Pension Service, dated 2nd May, a letter containing Proof of Life forms. Informing me that my pension had been stopped on the 2nd May?, due to Proof Life forms not being received by them. I've already sorted this out and my pension was resumed this month. My point is that this letter took more than three months to reach me. Another letter from an insurance company was dated 23rd April. What has happened to the postal service? Is it the fault of the UK or Thai postal system? If the postal service is now untrustworthy is it not time for the UK pension service, to come up with a better way to obtain this information? Or send their requests six months in advance before any pension stoppage?  My gripe for the day????

    Not sure if is the case.. but some times the belt can kill you.

    But can save more times. One thing that I find annoying when being driven by members of my family is that the driver locks the doors. I've tried to explain that should we have an accident, rescuers would not be able to get to us immediately. Their answer is "What about robbers?"????

    Personally, I find it grossly unfair, in any country, where privileged people drive on the streets in an overly expensive car, often hundreds of times more pricey than what 99.9% of the common folk drive. Thus, if a collision should happen, the commoner is placed in a very difficult position. Such is the case here. Of course the pickup truck driver is at fault but had she been driving a "normal" car, his insurance, if he was insured, would have been adequate.

    (As an aside, I wonder if she has the proper work permit)

    And hogging the outside lovertaking ane most probably. Most self respecting Mercedes, or BMW drivers would be seen on the inside lane, let alone a Rolls Royce.????
