Popular Post webfact Posted June 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 30, 2022 by Krajangwit Johjit BANGKOK (NNT) - In the midst of pressing economic crises, health issues, and global events, Thais have been urged to unite and aid the nation’s progress. Prime Minister Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha stated at the Federation of Thai Industries (FTI) Expo 2022, "Shaping Future Industries for a Stronger Thailand," that the government is committed to working in everyone’s interests while increasing its competitiveness. He then called on the public and private sectors to collaborate in the face of changes and challenges. Deputy Prime Minister and Energy Minister Supattanapong Punmeechaow, Interior Minister Gen Anupong Paojinda, and Digital Economy and Society Minister Chaiwut Thanakasuson were also present at the event. Referring to the so-called bio-, circular-, and green (BCG) economic model, Gen. Prayut said technological progress in a variety of fields necessitates Thailand’s innovative developments, which will impact the manufacturing sector. According to the prime minister, the Thai government has been working with foreign governments in an effort to promote industrial development and strengthen the nation’s industrial base. Priority will also be given to issues concerning the country’s public health system and efforts to alleviate economic hardship among Thai citizens. Gen Prayut went on to say that Thailand might need to import various types of fuel from abroad, in an effort to combat rising energy, transportation, and prices of consumer goods. He also defended the government’s borrowing, arguing that the loans were essential to stimulate spending and drive economic growth in the kingdom. -- © Copyright NNT 2022-06-30 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

If you truly believe this statement Mr. PM, then why not create a true SafetyNet for the citizens of the country. Where are the reduced priced food stuffs that has been touted, and how are the lower class folks being helped with the increase of prices across the board due to inflation. 11 minutes ago, webfact said: According to the prime minister, the Thai government has been working with foreign governments in an effort to promote industrial development and strengthen the nation’s industrial base How is that going to help the common man/woman/child here in Thailand...... 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post internationalism Posted June 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 30, 2022 that's a nationalistic statement. A poor one, in face of political defeat at coming elections. But what he meant is to sacrifice freedoms and wealth for the good of his government rule. I don't think it would work well for the younger generation and for the lower strata of society. 13 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not voting for him but he's not been as bad as many other PM I've experienced, esp Toxsin, Big Jew, Barharn, Yingluck. Not as good as Chuan Leekpai but.
