Govt 'favours family over country'
Play
Chinnaworn Boonyakiat, a Democrat MP from Nakhon Si Thammarat, spoke against the Prime Minister in the censure debate against the government Tuesday.
He said that the government had no legitimacy to rule because it did not fulfil its promises and favoured a single family rather than the country.
Chinnaworn said that the government failed to fulfil its election pledge to lower living costs for Thai people. He gave the example of the rise in fuel prices and increased cost from the Bt300 minimum wage scheme. Only products such as corn and rubber had got cheaper, he said.
