Government launches “Have problems, consult the PM” charm offensive
Thailand’s government yesterday launched a new program, dubbed “Have Problems, Consult the PM,” to allow the public to voice grievances and problems directly to Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha.
Prayut welcomed groups representing farmers, civil society and independent entrepreneurs at Government House.
The PM told them that the program is his own initiative at a time of challenges, including Thailand’s economic slowdown and worries about the spread of the Covid-19 coronavirus, and assured them that the government is working hard to alleviate their struggles.
According to the PM, by meeting with the people and hearing their problems directly, the Government will get access to accurate information for use in developing remedies.
It was unclear whether the privilege of addressing the PM directly will extend to foreigners.
