Prayut dances away his woes in Kalasin

Wearing a Phu Tai shirt and dancing with local performers, Prime Minister General Prayut Chan-o-cha enjoyed spending his Wednesday in the northeastern province of Kalasin for a one-day visit.

 

Besides meeting with local people, Prayut gave away dozens of cows, buffaloes and agricultural tools to farmers before observing an irrigation development project in the afternoon. 

 

He also visited Phu Tai Cultural Centre, a local fabric-looming cooperative following Royal initiative of HM Queen Sirikit. 

 

Prayut has recently made frequent but brief field trips to distant provinces.  On contrast to his trip to Trang last week to inspect flood management, this trip to Kalasin appeared to focus on local development as well as getting in touch with the locals. 

 

While his trip in Songkhla and Pattani in late November did not end well – it was marked with confrontations between villagers and officers – Prayut managed to spend some of his time in Kalasin cheerfully doing the “serng” traditional dance with local girls.

 

He also reminded locals how his government had allocated Bt305 million for irrigation development and Bt1.4 billion for three road construction projects.
