Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra Wednesday instructed government offices to prepare contingency plans and fallback workplaces after anti-government protesters overran several ministries.
Yingluck told an urgent meeting of key government officials at Parliament that she would resolve the situation peacefully and cautiously, while all offices would have to prevent any damage to state property and any leakage of confidential information and back up important records.
Offices have to continue operating at a temporary location because they are working for the people. If they can’t find another spot, the Finance Ministry can be contacted to help search for one.
She also pleaded for the protesters not to shut down government offices as that would inconvenience the public.
