Prayut says he not care about US invitation

Prime Minister General Prayut Chanocha Friday said he did not care whether the US Embassy would invite him to attend the Independence Day event in Bangkok this year.

“It’s their business. It does not matter. If they invite, I will [attend]. If they don’t, I will not,” said Prayut.  
Meanwhile, General Wilas Aroonsri, secretary-general to PM, said that an invitation had been sent to the PM. However, the premier would not be able to attend the event as he would be attending the Japan-Mekong summit, scheduled for July 4. 
“That is why [he] will not be able to join. It does not mean that they did not invite,” said Wilas.
