PM and Ung Ing to do battle in 2023 for the top job with public debt and the economy as key issues
Episode 288
Tuesday, 27 December, 2022
Public debt and the management of the economy will be the key battleground for this General Election as it is clear the alternative to the Pheu Thai Party and Paetongtarn Shinawatra or Ung Ing is the incumbent General Prayut Chan ocha. Just as the opposition party has surged in the polls with its promise of a ฿600 a day minimum wage and extended public sector borrowing, even beyond the current raised limit, the prime minister will aim to counter this by emphasising financial discipline and rectitude as provided for under the 2017 Constitution. https://www.thaiexaminer.com/thai-news-foreigners/2022/12/27/prayut-paetongtarn-shinawatra-ung-ing-to-battle-in-2023-over-debt/ Joseph O' Connor reports from Bangkok.
