The mayor of Prachuap Khiri Khan - a man known as "Mayor Gear" - has called for a number of senior officials to forego their salaries this month.

 

Instead, the money raised will go to buying PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) for foundations and medical staff involved in Covid-19 work.

 

The suggestion, that is set to raise 720,000 baht, was well received by Thai netizens.

That request will go down like a lead balloon......

They sure look like they are all behind it.

Just wondering approximately how much do they make per month? Thai government is always waiting donations from other countries.

There should just be a cut in military spending and  give that to medical staff.

 

Ok i know im dreaming.

The happiest looking bunch of Bunnies in the country !

Will that include bribes 

Guess they make x-fold of it in side business anyway. 

555555555555????

 He makes most of his money not by his salary this is Thailand rememberHis salary is the smallest thing he makes TIT

Go mayor go straight to jail????

Now that is a somber looking meeting
