Wichai’s resignation yet to be approved

Commerce Minister Jurin Laksanawisit has decided not to approve the resignation of the Department of Internal Trade director Wichai Pochanakit yet.

 

Wichai had submitted his resignation letter to the Commerce Ministry's permanent secretary asking for leave until April 24 before resigning.

 

“I told him I didn’t want to see him resign,” Jurin said. “He has worked very hard to solve the face mask problem amid this Covid-19 pandemic and he managed to provide them to 60 million people in the country. We did the best that we can.”

 

He added that Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha was not notified about the matter. He was also not certain that the decision would lead to a conflict among coalition parties.

So, according to Jurin Laksanawisit almost all Thais are wearing face masks. Oh dear, why did they put a blind man in charge of commerce?

...and with that, his pants spontaneously caught on fire.

I still don't know where they have them in stock.

the govt ministers couldnt lie straight in bed, what a total load of BS,  after the hoarding and selling of a few million masks to china to make a huge profit  the govt sees nothing wrong with it and praises the person in charge of distributing the facemasks, obviously making profit comres before protedting the thai populace as well as not ditributing the masks to them

After been caught red handed selling the face masks, they still have the gall to <deleted> their citizens with statements like the one above.

I pity the common. Thai

I walked into my local hospital and they gave me a mask, cheap green one but still.

I got a free mask today at DIY. They had them for free at the check out counter. 

 

We also bought two masks at the local linen store when the Mrs. and I went into buy some cotton material for a project at her office.
