My health will decide whether I carry on in Cabinet: Prawit

By The Nation

Deputy Prime Minister General Prawit Wongsuwan said on Tuesday that whether he would continue to work in the Cabinet following the upcoming reshuffle by the prime minister was dependent on his health.

 

He said that while he was always willing to work hard, whether or not he could continue his work was really down to his health.

 

Prawit also rejected current speculation concerning tea money among his aides, stressing that anyone close to him found to be involved in such a practice would be punished.

 

He urged the media not to report on speculation, and insisted that his close aides were not involved with tea money.

 

Prime Minister General Prayut Chan-o-cha said at Tuesday’s Cabinet meeting that the ministerial reshuffle was “nothing personal”, but all about work efficiency, Government Spokesperson Lt-General Sansern Kaewkamnerd said during the weekly press briefing at Government House. 

 

If it is necessary to reshuffle the pack, he has to do so for the sake of the utmost efficiency of his Cabinet, Sansern reported the PM as saying. 

 

The PM urged those losing out in the reshuffle not to feel any hurt because if that was the case, it was he who would feel it the most because he would be the one who had to make the decisions – on who should leave, who should stay – the spokesman added.

"Don't feel bad 'cos that will make me feel the baddest" Adults or children?

 

As for the Deputy's comments, if you ain't well, jog on. That goes for anyone else who isn't best suited for the job for whatever the reason. 

If only everyone else was as sincire and dedicated to work as Brother No.1, the country would progress leaps and bounds.

Thought meritocracy was the deciding factor. Maybe the military has a different criteria or rather clique mentality. 

I do hope he's not unwell:partytime2:

If they are, he should step down.

Here's hoping then!

Getting sacked can lead to bad health

In the first instance, the position was taken by force

Since then, the country has served at his whim and his morality and not whats best for the country

 

His health is not the issue.. His IQ on the other hand might be

 

No sympathy for bullies and the quicker your gone, the better!

Prayut said his military senior classmates Deputy PM and Defence Minister General Prawit Wongsuwan and Interior Minister General Anupong Paochinda, and his close friend Agriculture and Cooperatives Minister General Chatchai Sarikulya, would remain in the Cabinet.

Sounds personal to me. And with regard to Chatchai it's certainly not about work efficiency.

'The PM urged those losing out in the reshuffle not to feel any hurt ...'

 

As per usual, the PM is demonstrating some confusion as to where his priorities should lie.

Yup, no one should get upset by what the PM says or does, rightly or wrongly! He is a General and MUST be obeyed at all times!

I want to spend more time with my children.  I want to pursue my hobbies

OK down on our knees at midnight to night and pray very hard
