The problem is, they are all lazy and no one wants to lift a finger to do anything. I think its actually good to see the one in charge being held responsible for lack of effort of his department. Hopefully this is the start of holding the top dogs responsible when they do not follow through. It would be great to actually make them do their jobs – whether it works or not will be interesting to see.

If you need Article 44 to do it, then this is not an option for civilian governments, as they do not have those powers. If they were bothered about holding top dogs responsible, there is a certain interior minister who needs looking at.
In addition, for this case there is no actual reason given for the removal. One paper speculates that there were bribes being paid. Will there be an investigation?

Power cliques are forming in the junta government. It’s not performance but conformance. The abrupt sacking using Article 44 robbed that individual of the due diligence process. It’s an embarrassment and a loss of face. Not good for the morale of that ministry. Resignation of the Labour minister and his team is indirectly telling the PM that he is wrong. He has lost control and allowed some to influence him. It will only get worse.

Like everything else in Thailand since the junta’s invisible and ineffective administration and its cling-on disease swept through Government House, employment reform, along with law and disorder, education and road-safety, is just so slow, so pitifully ... SLOW!
