Bankok, July 25: Thailand’s Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha confronted opposition inquiries in the parliament for the very first time as the former junta military pioneer on Thursday set out his administration’s arrangements.
Prayuth took control in a 2014 coup, yet has remained on as the prime minister after a general poll held in March under a framework that resistance groups state was designed to guarantee the military kept its hands on power.
Prayuth, who as junta pioneer built up a reputation for being pretentious of any individual who disagreed with him, has welcomed legislators by saying “I always missed you all,” according to Al-Jazeera news reports.
When Prayuth began his presentation, he was tested by an individual from the opposition Pheu Thai party to adhere to the 66-page policy document and not to offer an additional remark over it.
“OK, I will read that out for you. And you will have to follow along,” he responded.
The arrangement priorities, released in the synopsis on Sunday, incorporate attempting to empower financial development and building up a medicinal cannabis industry. The top need is securing the government.
The most top-level figures in the fresh legislature are most from the former junta party, yet Prayuth expected to manufacture an alliance with 19 different parties in order to guarantee a small majority in the lower house of parliament over the individuals who contradict him.
Asked before appearing to the parliament if he was getting nervous, Prayuth said: “No, I’ve stayed for five years already.”
