Popular Post webfact Posted July 12, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 12, 2020 Deputy PM Somkid confident PM Prayut’s decisions on cabinet in best interests of nation BANGKOK (NNT) - The Deputy Prime Minister, Dr. Somkid Jatusripitak, has voiced his readiness to accept any decision made by Prime Minister and Defense Minister, Gen. Prayut Chan-o-cha, after he signaled a possible cabinet reshuffle, saying he believed the Prime Minister will make his decisions based on the best interests of the nation. Speaking about the resignations of four Palang Pracharath Party members, Dr. Somkid said it was due to changes within Palang Pracharath and that their departure was amicable. On changes to cabinet positions, he voiced confidence Gen. Prayut will base his decisions on the greater good of Thai society, assuring MPs he will accept any appointments that are made. Meanwhile, Deputy Prime Minister, Prof. Dr. Wissanu Krea-ngam, downplayed speculation that the Prime Minister has signaled a cabinet reshuffle and said he would wait to hear of such a move directly from him first. Nonetheless, he allayed concerns that changes to the ministers could impact deliberation of the national budget, as the relevant committee does not contain any political figures. The Secretary-General of the Palang Pracharath Party, Anucha Nakasai, said the four departures from the party were undertaken on good terms. He said he would continue to perform his duties but declined to comment on any quotas for government posts. Party board member Chaiwut Thanakamanusorn said he believed the four former members of Palang Pracharath would join other parties but didn’t speculate on whether they would join former Democrat member Korn Chatikavanij’s political party. He confirmed the vacant ministerial portfolios would remain with the party but indicated final decisions are up to the Prime Minister. -- © Copyright NNT 2020-07-13 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven100 Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 The thai economy has performed quite well since Khun Prayut Chan O Cha took the reigns. GDP increased yearly as did government spending on infrastructure which created 1000's of jobs. The facts speak for themselves .... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The job market for the average Thai was bad before the virus. The number of farangs working in Thailand has also plummeted. Not much to cheer about.

In a way the economy actually could be put on autopilot or have a monkey in control and do the same based on tourism and exports. As for the average Thai, they are so up to their eyeballs in debt and unless mistaken it has never been so high like this before. And the virus has nothing to do with this metastasizing like a cancerous financial citizen crisis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jane Dough Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Just hoping that Anutin is put on the back burner. Hopefully with it lit. A change at the tourism and sports helm would be handy, too. In these dark times we need someone who might resurrect the Durian Kit-Kat ideas. Rooster 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
