Provincial bodies won't be disbanded, Charupong says

The Pheu Thai Party denied Monday that it plans to dissolve provincial administrative organisations, as suggested by Natural Resources and Environment Minister Preecha Rengsomboonsuk.

Interior Minister Charupong Ruangsuwan, who is Pheu Thai leader, and party deputy spokesman Anusorn Iamsaard said there was no plan to dissolve the PAOs.
Preecha said Pheu Thai planned to dissolve the PAOs because their operations overlapped with those of municipal and tambon bodies, plus the Local Administration Department.
