PRIME Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha Friday (Oct. 21) refused to comment on a possible cabinet reshuffle and a suggestion that former deputy prime minister MR Pridiyathorn Devakula is suitable to head Palang Pracharath Party’s economic team, Thai Rath and Matichon newspapers said.

 

After attending the Special Economic Zone Development Policy Committee meeting at the Government House this morning Prayut was questioned about Mr. Nirote Sunthornlekha, Palang Pracharath MP for Nakhon Sawan and chief government whip, having said that as the country needs a macroeconomic expert to restore stability after the impact of Covid-19 pandemic Pridiyathorn is most suitable as party’s economic chief.

 

The person taking this role need not be a candidate for prime minister but could helm the economic team, he had said.
