BANGKOK (NNT) - The prime minister has asserted a revamp of Thailand requires the implementation of 3 core strategies that would elevate prosperity and people’s overall livelihood.

 

Prime Minister Gen. Prayut Chan-o-cha delivered a speech on the topic “Accelerating Thailand.” He elaborated the government strives to concretely bring various initiatives to realization as it prepares the nation for future challenges.

 

One goal is to elevate the overall wealth of the nation and dissipate prosperity to every locality so people’s livelihood could improve. Three core strategies are being implemented for these purposes.

 

The first strategy involves infrastructure development for transportation as well as for digital affairs. Infrastructure will open up opportunities for people to make their living and be self-reliant. The second strategy involves the electric vehicles industry and modern agriculture.

 

These two industries are poised to become among the world’s largest in the future. The third strategy concerns the use of the banking sector to create opportunities for new entrepreneurs and enterprises.

 

The prime minister said the aim is to bring these strategies to realization within the next 12 months. Many projects under these strategies are already progressing. Gen. Prayut called for the public to have confidence in said projects and asked for public cooperation in taking the nation toward greater prosperity.

 

The prime minister added there are criticisms over his management of the nation from time to time, and said this is normal in a democracy.

 

He noted that people should not let their attention over crucial national matters be distracted. He asked that everybody contribute to the big picture at hand and ready the nation for the future.

If you really want to help the poor people of Thailand you Know what you should do.

None of that is going to happen.

Here is a hint,one main thing is to stop corruption.

More infrastructure?

More ways to get brown envelopes.

My friends village got money for a new road,the budget for that

was enough.

The road only went half way,money gone!

Where is it?

You are correct.

The very big problem is the corruption is endemic in Thailand, non more so that the RTP.

Even if you could replace all the police, the newcomers would soon succumb.

Its an impossible task?

It is not an impossible task but there is no one brave enough to attempt it.

There are a lot of good Police officers but for some reason they do not

get promoted.

Call it peer pressure if you like.

Thailand is corrupt from top to bottom.  It's a way of life and is casually accepted/expected.  If you replaced all the police, you would still have a corrupt police force, just like any other sector, no need to succumb to anything.

 

Corruption is a Thailand problem, not something unique to any particular area.

Also to help you spend more on the poor you might want to stop rich people getting the pensions as they are lined up every month with their hand out.

There is no corruption in the system in Thailand.

 

Corruption is the system.

Yet no mention of the fundamental requirement of education improvement ,in which the PISA educational tables show Thailand is seriously lacking in ? 

[Srikcir]

3 core strategies...?

Absent building a better democratic and moralistic society, free and open elections, fully elected Parliament, publically elected judicial system, a military under civilian control, etc.

Household debt to GDP reached an all time high of 91% in the fourth Quarter 2021.

79% of rural areas remain poor with unequal distribution with the South and Northeast having almost the poverty rate at the national level.

Eight years in "office" and Prayut misses the mark. But he desires re-election for 4 more years?

Maybe he can share all their collective off-shore accounts around the country, after-all most of it belongs to the nation.

But only for the rich in every locality. The poor can go & get stuffed, as they cannot afford the contents of a brown paper envelope to grease the wheels of official corruption.

 

According to https://tricycle.org/beginners/buddhism/three-poisons/

In his early teachings, the Buddha identified “three poisons,” or three fires, or three negative qualities of the mind that cause most of our problems—and most of the problems in the world. The three poisons are: greed (raga, also translated as lust), hatred (dvesha, or anger), and delusion (moha, or ignorance). The three poisons are opposed by three wholesome, or positive attitudes essential to liberation: generosity (dana), lovingkindness (maitri, Pali: metta), and wisdom (prajna).
