Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra declined to comment on allegations that Pitaka Suksawat, her husband, sold shares in a company but failed to inform the National Anti-Corruption Commission ( NACC ) about the allegations.

She retorted when investigators inquired about her questioning whether she had been appointed prime minister prior to Mr. Pitaka’s alleged sale of his 16,500 stock of MWP Co.

Next August, Ms. Paetongtarn took over the role. She turned to some nearby ministers to inquire whether the case had thoroughly explained this in parliament after the press release yesterday acknowledged this.

The top continued by saying she would prefer to skip this problem for the time being because the issue is very delicate before waiting for their response.

Ms. Paetongtarn questioned how the property market may be improved now that the country’s economic development program has been amended.
