Reform panels making progress, Wissanu says

By The Nation

 

 

Under pressure to produce results soon, the national reform and strategy committees were on Wednesday discussing how to meet a requirement in new legislation that their reports be drafted “in the same manner”.

Deputy Prime Minister Wissanu Krea-ngam said that the 13 reform committees and six strategy sub-committees convened to compare progress and, for now, had agreed to draft proposals in the same format.

 

The committees also agreed to hold open meetings upcountry to assess public opinion, Wissanu said, adding that they are indeed making progress.

 

The reform committees are due to submit proposals by December, to be scrutinised by the strategy committees to ensure they’re in line with established national strategy.

 

Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha had earlier urged that the panels’ progress be reported to the public.

Lol

 

Like they care what the people think.

 

You don't take power by gunpoint, write laws to empower you and your friends, give yourself and your buddies amnesties for everything done in the past and future, only to ask the people (who you are supposedly working for) if they like the color of the icing on the cake.

 

Unless it can be used as an excuse to delay elections.

Who gets the lunches? That's the 7th sub-sub-committee. They get 47500 baht a month in line with qualifications in order taking.
