webfact Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 PM Prayut to hand financial assistance to people affected by Korat attack BANGKOK(NNT) - Representatives of the Ministry of Finance and state-owned banks, have brought 12 million baht in donation to Prime Minister and Defense Minister, Gen. Prayut Chan-o-cha. The donated money went to the Prime Minister’s Office Disaster Relief Fund to help those affected by the mass shooting on February 8 and 9, 2020, in Nakhon Ratchasima province. The government’s financial assistance for the injured and the families of those killed, has been transferred to Nakhon Ratchasima province. The Prime Minister will present the financial assistance to the victims on February 19. The Permanent Secretary of the Prime Minister’s Office, Teerapat Prayoonsit, said today that Gen. Prayut will distribute the financial aid to 27 people who are family members of those killed and 57 injured people. Mr. Teerapat said officials are checking the information of victims involved in the attack. Public donations for the families of victims of the mass shooting at the Terminal 21 shopping mall in Nakhon Ratchasima province closed on February 16. Total donations have topped 82 million baht, with 29 million baht having been given to those affected. The government resolved to increase payments to four injured victims who are still being treated in an intensive care unit (ICU). Three of them are likely to be permanently disabled. They will receive an additional 1.5 million baht. Another injured victim, who is expected to be treated for at least six months, will receive an additional 1 million baht. On February 21 at Terminal 21, the provincial administration, on behalf of the injured and the families of those killed, will host an event to thank all parties involved in providing assistance. Honorary certificates will be given to good Samaritans on this occasion. -- © Copyright NNT 2020-02-19 Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking Thailand news and visa info 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParkerN Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 (edited) And the mission to be loved at all costs progresses still further. Not unlike vampirising the Thai people by being determined to exploit every misfortune they suffer. In this case, misfortune which he himself had a hand in creating (remember he was head honcho of the Army before turfing out the elected government in 2014 and is not therefore immune to the results of the excesses of that same Army now). This guy really is the pits. A sorry excuse for a human being imho. Edited February 18, 2020 by ParkerN 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post colinneil Posted February 18, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 18, 2020 Public donations, yet little P cannot resist sticking his nose in. Absolutely nothing to do with him, but just wants people to think he is behind it.... Sickening that he is trying to gain support out of this tragedy. 6 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the Korat victims' families would get more if he didn't waste so much tax payers' money on private jets with superfluous entourages. Not really a suitable picture considering this isn't about him - it's about the poor people who lost loved ones under his tenure. 6 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mickey rat Posted February 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 19, 2020 OMG, nobody is wearing a mask! They should be expelled immediately! The horrendous air pollution in Korat that he ignores kills far more per year. What's he doing about that? Perhaps someone might have noticed all the fires burning as they were flying in on their super VIP private jet? ???? Keep up the good work, Mr. General.???? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
