Private sector supports female Thai prime minister
BANGKOK, July 4 (TNA) - The private sector has expressed enthusiasm as Thailand prepares for its first female prime minister following Sunday’s successful general election.
Payungsak Chartsutipol, chair of the Federation of Thai Industries (FTI), said he was confident that Yingluck Shinawatra, the Pheu Thai Party top list MP, had the ability to solve national problems. He underlined that political stability was essential to the economy as it would boost Thailand’s image, and hence investors’ confidence.
Payungsak proposed that the new government focus on solving economic problems, including rising living costs and inflation, while progressively increasing the minimum wage so as not to hurt business operators.
Meanwhile, Kannikar Chalitaporn, the president of Siam Commercial Bank, said she would be pleased if Yingluck became the country’s first female prime minister. She believed Yingluck was knowledgeable and capable and would be able to work with other parties to administer the country. Kannikar also noted that the next government should terminate of fuel subsidies as it distorts the working of market mechanisms. (TNA)
