Cabinet rejects cooked food price control

 At the meeting today, the ministry is assigned to review the proposal, and resubmit it to the mobile Cabinet meeting in Kanchanaburi. 
 Commerce Minister Boonsong Teriyapirom said prior to the meeting that 10 cook food items could fall under price control, as part of the government's efforts to ease the increasing cost of living. The ministry has asked major consumer goods manufactures to maintain prices for four months. He said that manufacturers should not claim that higher wages result in higher production cost.
