Media reports that a government change may occur this year to make room for Pheu Thai head Paetongtarn Shinawatra to be included in the line-up were dismissed by Deputy Prime Minister Phumtham Wechayachai on Tuesday.

The Pheu Thai former claimed that none of the rumors about Ms. Paetongtarn’s social job that had been spread before the general election of last year were accurate. He insisted that the government is not already being reshuffled by the government.

The alliance partners are exerting every effort to the best of their abilities. Only from the internet have I heard anything about a cabinet reshuffle. There are absolutely no symptoms. It’s coming from strangers who might not be aware of the circumstances, he claimed.

When asked why rumors about Ms. Paetongtarn’s future in the case continue, Mr. Phumtham responded that the media should be the best informed. He added that it is too early to discuss this and that she is currently concentrating on her position as the Pheu Thai head.

The function of our party is based on the three-pronged strategy– the celebration, the House, and the government. She is acting as the leader of the group. Each has a specific duty and duty. Talking about” a government position” is premature, he said.

As several of the administration’s policies, including Sor Por Kor 4-01 land upgrades, drug destruction, and debt relief measures, are being implemented, Mr. Phumtham claims that Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin has asked government ministers to showcase their work.

He stated that after the government spent the previous three months resolving old issues and establishing recommendations for new guidelines and projects, the consumer can then anticipate beginning to see the results of its work.

When asked about the likelihood of Ms. Paetongtarn being appointed a minister, Bhumjaithai Party leader and deputy prime minister Anutin Charnvirakul said on Tuesday andnbsp that he should n’t discuss Pheu Thai’s internal affairs.

However, she is the party’s president. When party members can serve as ministers, why ca n’t the party leader? Without going into more detail, he said,” She may even be more than that.

Varawut Silpa-archa, the head of the Chartthaipattana Party and minister for social development and human security, claimed that Ms. Paetongtarn is qualified to hold a government position because she is the party’s leader.

Mr. Varawut added that while he is not opposed to a significant shake-up, any adjustments must first be approved by all state parties.
