Thailand’s new Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin has vowed to act quickly to relieve the country’s economic problems in his inaugural speech to Parliament.
He vowed to quickly take measures to relieve debt problems, mitigate rising energy costs and boost tourism, without going into detail.
The promise drew major interest in the election campaign, but critics have questioned whether it would have a sustainable effect. These steps would allow the economy to grow and its people to be able to “live with dignity,” he said. But Parliament failed to endorse a coalition formed by the progressive Move Forward party, which won the most seats in the May polls, because members in the appointed and conservative Senate were alienated by its calls for minor reforms to the monarchy.
