Popular Post webfact Posted September 26, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 26, 2023 PRIME MINISTER SRETTHA Thavisin Tuesday (Sep.26) told all members of his cabinet to no longer manage to have too many government officials accompany him during his official trips to the provinces. Government spokesman Chai Wacharong quoted the prime minister as suggesting that all cabinet members no longer give orders for too many government officials to literally hang around in his company at places where he may pay official visits or meet with local villagers as they may have usually done. Apart from the prime minister’s entourage from Bangkok, a cabinet member may not only order the director-general of a department but a deputy director-general of the same agency, plus their subordinate officials to accompany him in addition to those who are based in the provinces where he may visit and dutifully responsive to them.

mikebell Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Sounds like a refreshing change from the new PM; denying junket membership to the many. Now if he can just persuade them to work instead of enjoying the hospitality of others, he'll get my vote ...oh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
