Prayut appoints four committees to drive for reforms, reconciliation and draft strategies
Prime Minister Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha on Monday night signed an order to appoint members of four committees under the umbrella committee for reform, reconciliation, and national strategy.
Each of the four committees – national strategy preparation committee, reform preparation committee, reconciliation preparation committee, and strategic administration committee – will be chaired by the prime minister himself with one or two deputy PMs as deputy chair.
Most of the members are state officials and military officers except the 33-member reconciliation preparation committee that will include academics.
Two former charter writers, Sujit Boonbongkarn and Anek Laothamatas, and Suthibhand Chirathivat who is a lecturer at Chulalongkorn University’s Economic Faculty, were appointed as members in the reconciliation preparation committee.
Anek was chairman of now defunct National Reform Council’s committee on studies for national reconciliation.
