Prayut says submarine project not aimed at pleasing China
Prime Minister Prayut Chanocha said Tuesday that the Navy's proposal to buy three submarines worth Bt36 billion had nothing to do with the move to strengthen ties with China.
Prayut said that the proposal was the result of the Navy’s vision into the next decade. He said that critics should not link the submarine purchase proposal with the fishing, the train projects or other plans initiated by the government.
