Thai PM orders ministers to spend the night in sunken cities
BANGKOK, September 29 (TNA) - Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra has ordered 12 cabinet ministers to stay overnight in 12 provinces severely hit by flooding where they will coordinate flood relief.
Yingluck said on Thursday that the 12 ministers will report directly to her while working with provincial governors and defense troops stationed in the areas. She noted this will enable the government to respond to changing situations more effectively.
Yingluck affirmed that her government will strictly follow the “2P 2R” concept in coping with floods, under clear sightlines of responsibilities with concerned officials in an integrated manner.
