Progressive Movement leader Thanathorn Juangroongruangkit has vouched for Sirikanya Tansakul, the Move Forward party’s policy director, as Thailand’s next finance minister, as he praised her resourcefulness and all-rounded knowledge of government policies and budget spending.

 

As the party’s policy chief, she reads every bill before it is presented to parliament for consideration and explained, in detail, the intricacies of each bill to other members in the party, said Thanathorn in his Facebook post on Tuesday.

 

The former leader of the now defunct Future Forward party, the predecessor of the Move Forward party, Thanathorn recalled that Sirikanya was introduced to him by an academic friend when the Future Forward party was still looking for a qualified policy chief, after having interviewed several candidates.

 

During the initial stage, he said that his working relationship with her was a little frought, as both of them often disagreed on issues but, after several months, they adjusted and could get along quite well, but they still engaged in frequent debate.
