Popular Post webfact Posted July 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 21, 2020 Prayut promises his new Cabinet will only have capable people By THE NATION Prayut Chan-o-cha Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha said on Tuesday (July 21) that he will only have capable people fill the vacant ministerial posts. He made this announcement after attending the weekly Cabinet meeting. Refusing to elaborate, Prayut only said a search will be launched for potential new candidates for the posts as soon as possible. He also said the new ministers must be qualified, adding that people can make suggestions, but the new Cabinet line-up will only be finalised by him. The premier also insisted that he has no political conflicts with other ministers. Over the past two weeks, seven key ministers in his government have resigned. The latest was Labour Minister Chatumongol Sonakul. He confirmed with Nation TV reporters via telephone on Monday evening that he has had his team submit his resignation letter. Earlier on Monday, Chart Pattana Party leader Tewan Liptapanlop also stepped down from his post as Prime Minister’s Office minister, saying he had quit so the “prime minister can reshuffle the Cabinet freely and without any worries”. On July 16, deputy prime minister Somkid Jatusripitak, finance minister Uttama Savanayana, energy minister Sontirat Sontijirawong, minister of higher education, science, research and innovation Suvit Maesincee and Kobsak Pootrakool, deputy secretary-general to the PM for political affairs, gave up their portfolios effective immediately.

With the drugsdealer and other incompetent f**ls in tow.

Popular Post darksidedog Posted July 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 21, 2020 I wonder if he realises how many good laughs we get every time he opens his mouth and tries to say something serious. If its capable people he has to have, better start immigration on organising the needed work permits. Can't say there are quality candidates coming to mind locally after all. 7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post colinneil Posted July 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 21, 2020 Prayut promises only capable people will be in his new cabinet, so that means all the present incapable members are getting the push, he will have to remove them as not 1 of them is capable. Only thing the present mob are capable of is getting their LARGE snouts in the trough. 11 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlikely to happen with so many dinosaurs pulling the string saying that Thai people shouldn't be like foreigners, not let themselves be influenced by foreigners and not conspire with communists, pride in the nation and jadajada.
