Labour network rallies for more assistance

By THE NATION

 

 

Members of the Labour Network for People’s Rights rallied outside Government House on Tuesday demanding that the government pay Bt5,000 to each member of the country’s workforce for three months.

 

On January 19, the Cabinet approved the “RaoChana” (WeWin) cash-handout campaign, in which Bt3,500 will be handed for two months to the self-employed, farmers and welfare-card holders. Those eligible can register from Thursday onwards and the cash can be withdrawn via a smartphone application.

 

The protesters said the money was too little and giving access to the assistance via a smartphone app would leave many out of the loop. They also rejected the plan of transferring Bt1,000 per week, saying some people needed more cash to survive.

I know we have some clever people on here living on small amounts, but if you can live on 106 baht a day and cover your rent, food, gas, electric and water, I take my hat off to you,

The interesting part is that people obviously believe that Governments have money which is completely false !!!

 

Governments steal money from productive people or make loans and let other people pay for it .... it's one big fraud !!!
