BANGKOK (NNT) - In a significant turn of events, a private discussion was held between key officials concerning Thailand’s economic and financial landscape. The meeting, which occurred at the Government House, lasted approximately 45 minutes and both parties opted not to give any interviews post-discussion.

 

Sethaput Suthiwartnarueput, Governor of the Bank of Thailand, met with Prime Minister and Finance Minister Srettha Thavisin for this closed-door gathering. Following the meeting, the Prime Minister took to social media platforms, including Twitter, to state that the exchange of views on the economy and finance was highly beneficial. He added that similar meetings will take place on a monthly basis.

 

Earlier in the day, the Prime Minister briefly spoke to the media in Muang Thong Thani. When asked whether interest rates were a topic of discussion in his meeting with the Central Bank Governor, he stressed that all matters were on the table for discussion.

Hopefully after the snacks and lunch,  the THB will drop a bit more and get a more realistic rate say 45 THB for 1 euro ?

Bad news, there's no more money left and out credit is bad. Better bring Prayut back to take over.

Take note, no Big Macs for them...............

Probably the PM saying what he wants and the BOT governor saying that's impossible due to outside country economic events

And they decided the way to prosperity is to tax the farangs and tax them hard...

So much for central bank independence.

Skullduggery at foot or trying to educate the PM on how and where money actually comes from.

Just look closely at the Photo in the Headline

Srettha looks as though he has just been told that the Candy Store is well and truly gone bust, and that all his Election promises have gone up in smoke along with it

Things cannot be good right now, as the RTAF have been asked to defer their 2023 procurement Budget until 2024
