webfact Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Newly elected Bangkok Governor Chadchart Sittipunt has injected new energy into the capital with his distinctive work style. In stark contrast to his predecessors, Chadchart is down-to-earth, highly active, and open-minded. “I am not your boss,” Chadchart told officials of the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) at their first meeting. “We will work together. No matter what you have in mind, you can talk about it with me. If you think I should revise policies or add some more policies, come forward.” Chadchart has been dubbed the “world’s strongest politician” for his impressive physical build and has dispensed with the entourage of bodyguards that accompany many other public figures. This means that residents can easily approach him as he moves around the city. Simple work rules Though known for waking and getting to work early, Chadchart has not ordered his BMA officials to do the same. He only wants them to focus on their work and address Bangkokians’ grievances.

khunjeff Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 I enjoyed his live streams from Seattle, where he was attending his son's graduation and chatting with Thai students - he seems very down to earth. Where he came up with the name "Traffy Fondue" for his app, though, is a mystery to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
