"appointments"

With some 4,000 public schools having no directors, the education minister has set up a special committee to amend rules so that their appointments could be speeded up.

The Pheu Thai Party’s legal team yesterday petitioned the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) to investigate whether Prime Minister General Prayut Chan-o-cha and his Cabinet members had violated laws by appointing two of the Supreme Court judges who had ruled in the case against ex-PM Yingluck Shinawatra to positions outside the court.

The Cabinet on Tuesday approved the appointments of 10 senior officials in the public health sector, including four directors-general and four deputy permanent secretaries.

THE latest reshuffle of Prayut Chan-o-cha’s Cabinet has drawn mixed responses from politicians and scholars.
