Prime Minster Yingluck Shinawatra said Thursday that there would be opportunities for members of the so-called 111 Club to join the government but ruled out a cabinet reshuffle in the near future.
The five-year ban on the former Thai Rak Thai Party executives of the club will end at the end of this month.
Speaking upon arrival in Bangkok after an official visit to Qatar and Bahrain, Yingluck said her government would not close the door for the club members to join the government.
“They are capable and qualified persons who are more than welcome to join our work. However, it will depend on the timing,” she said.
“Inviting them to work in the government will depend on their qualifications and certainly their wishes,” she said.
When asked whether there would be cabinet reshuffle to allow the club members to join the government, Yingluck reiterated that it depended on the timing.
