M.R. Chatumongol quits as Ruam Palang Prachachart party leader

 

 

Thailand’s Labour Minister, M.R. Chatumongol Sonakul, has quit as leader of the Ruam Palang Prachachart Party, effective Tuesday, after he failed a performance assessment by the party’s executive board.

 

Well-informed sources said the board met on today, to assess his work over the past year, and agreed that he had under-performed, citing his slow response to the massive layoffs of workers resulting from business closures caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

The board also cited widespread criticism of the Labor Ministry’s handling of other labor problems, said the sources, adding that M.R, Chatumongol has tendered his resignation as party leader.

Wouldn't it be great if all parties had the same performance review?

This "performance assessment" thing must be something they reserve for emergencies only, eh
