webfact Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 MOBILE CABINET MEETING Cabinet to hold meetings in all provinces The Nation The Cabinet is expected to hold mobile meetings in all 77 provinces in order to stay in touch with each locality, Deputy Prime Minister Yongyuth Wichaidit said yesterday, voicing confidence that political stability would enable the government to complete its four-year term. "Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra plans to hold meetings and stay overnight at every province," he said. Yongyuth said Yingluck might not pick the same meeting venues as former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra had done, adding that mobile Cabinet meetings in the South will take place in Nakhon Si Thammarat, Surat Thani, Songkhla and Phuket. Yingluck is scheduled to chair her first mobile meeting in Chiang Mai next week. She said the idea of having the Cabinet convened in every province came up as Yingluck chaired yesterday's meeting on policies pertaining to provincial clusters. He said the prime minister instructed provincial governors to show tangible results on flood recovery efforts by March, a month after the disbursement of the funds. The job performance evaluation for every governor will hinge on the post-flood recovery, he said. He said he would hold talks with the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration in order to speed up compensation payments to residents hit by the flooding. The government is determined to help flood victims across the country, including those living in the South, seen as the backyard of the opposition Democrats, he said. Yongyuth said Justice Minister Pracha Promnok, in his capacity as director of the Flood Relief Operations Centre, would oversee the compensation payments. He also said his Interior Ministry had a firm policy to punish any culprits involved in irregularities in connection with the flood relief supplies and at the same time to ensuring fairness to officials wrongly accused. -- The Nation 2012-01-13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzMick Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Good chance for a sweep bet on how many she actually attends, all proceeds to the charity of choice of the winner. I hope she can come up with some better excuses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siampolee Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 (edited) A re-run of Thaksins fiasco which cost millions and proved nothing, no doubt though a good many palms were and will yet again be oiled as a result of the money trail that was created by the roving cabinet meetings. Yet again it proves beyond a doubt who is actually running the current P.T.P. Muppet Show here in Thailand.

WAERTH Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I thought there were 76 provinces, where is 77? Somewhere in the Gulf? Bueng Kan. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bueng_Kan_Province Bamgkok is technically NOT a province but a special governmental area (Maha Nakhon). But most people count it as a province so then Thailand has 77 provinces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdnski12 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 The local "Comfort Girl Bars" will do a roaring (or twittering) trade when the randy Parliament Members investigate their erstwhile establishments. How nice of the Govt to spread the Taxpayers Largese around Thailand. Surely they will show up in Red Shirted Issan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet again it proves beyond a doubt who is actually running the current P.T.P. Muppet Show here in Thailand. Exactly, All these Ideas are seemingly arranged to get all these V.I.P. in 10 luxury mini buses careering at 140 KPH with police all over the place, creating havoc at every intersection. No tour buses will be in the far right lane at this time. All that travel, expenses claimed, hangers on invited to lavish food and the rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
