More than 90 per cent of complaints filed by members of the public after the coup in May have been sorted out satisfactorily, the prime minister said Friday.
General Prayut Chan-o-cha also said his government had taken a "proactive approach" in tackling people’s problems. Multiple-agency rapid response teams made up of police and military officers working together on urgent measures had been an effective mechanism, and many of their moves yielded concrete results, he said.
"I can assure you that every complaint will be heard and every suffering will be taken care of. The government will do its best to figure out a way to help the people," the prime minister said.
He was speaking in his weekly public address made during the TV programme "Returning Happiness to People in the Country", which was broadcast nationwide Friday night.
Over the past four months, 211,797 complaints have been filed through the Damrongtham centres throughout the country. Of those, 191,797 cases, or 90.5 per cent, have been sorted out, according to Prayut.
