PM: Private Sector Can Organize New Year Countdown Events

BANGKOK, Dec 26 (TNA) – The prime minister does not bar the private sector from organizing New Year events but advises organizers to do it with maximum precautions. Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha said that he did not have any particular instruction concerning New Year celebrations and he would let organizations make their own decisions. “But I would like them to use their best precautions,” he said. The prime minister said that he advised well-wishers to send him their letters or New Year cards because he would not receive any in person this year. (TNA)
