Pheu Thai Digital Wallet Project Endorsed By All Coalition Partners

[webfact]

 

THE PHEU THAI-INITIATED populist handout campaign, known as the 10,000-baht digital wallet project, today (Apr. 23) secured solid support from all coalition partners.

 

In a press conference at Government House, Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin confirmed all coalition partners, namely the Bhumjaithai, Palang Pracharath, Ruam Thai Sang Chart, Prachachart and Chart Thai Pattana, have lent their unfaltering support for the Pheu Thai handout campaign, scheduled to begin in the fourth quarter of this year.

 

Nevertheless, the cabinet today resolved to have the Council of State determine as to whether a sum of 172.3 billion baht could be legally provided from the Bank for Agriculture & Agricultural Cooperatives for the delayed digital wallet project calculated to need a total of 500 billion baht in funding.

Don't get blended, the photo does not show a congregation of idiots but a congregation of dangerous, self-centered men out for the hunt of whatever money and power they can get. 
The real script of their "digital wallet" business will surface sooner or later - get ready for a big surprise. The uncles and grannies in Isan have not the slightest clue, where this money comes from but that is irrelevant; the Bangkokian taxpayers might be advised that it is their money going out the window straight into some selected few pockets. Governmentally approved highway robbery? We'll see .......

Versus bipartisanship with "minority coalitions."

Thainess democracy at its best.

Yes let "HIS" bank pay for it. Thailand is broke now, it's only going to get worse with this clown at the wheel and all his grandeur ideas, of which there is no funding for any of them.

Can't wait for future reports on how people have scammed money from this digital wallet.
