Yongyuth to seek budget of B1bn to support newborn babies of poor families

Deputy Prime Minister Yongyuth Yutthawong said Thursday that he will ask the Cabinet next week to consider allocating a budget of Bt1 billion for providing childcare support to newborn babies of poor families.

If approved, the pilot project would continue for a year, he added. He said former prime minister Anand Panyarachun would make a speech in support of government’s childcare support at Parliament Friday.
