Chamber of Commerce President believes economy will not be severely affected after court ruling on PM

The chairman of the Thai Chamber of Commerce and the Board of Trade of Thailand stated that even though the Constitutional Court's decision did not allow Prime Minister Settha to continue and the entire cabinet was removed, he believes that the Thai economy will still receive support and tourism will not be severely affected. He will wait and see the appearance of the new prime minister and cabinet to restore confidence. Mr. Sanan Angubolkul, Chairman of the Thai Chamber of Commerce and Board of Trade of Thailand, revealed the case of the Constitutional Court's 5-4 vote to dismiss Mr. Settha Thavisin from the prime minister's position that from the Chamber of Commerce's perspective, the court's decision is something that all parties must accept. However, in terms of the economy, it must be said that it affects the country's confidence in the short term, especially the various projects and plans that are currently driving the country's economy. The Chamber of Commerce believes that during the period of wait ing to select a new prime minister and a new cabinet, which will take no less than 1 month, the process will be accelerated in order for the economy to move forward. It is believed that this year's economic projections will not be affected, as tourism can continue to move forward. During this period, we would like the government budget to be accelerated in order to drive the economy forward continuously, while the House of Representatives can continue to consider the 2025 budget. The Chamber of Commerce would like to see politics return to stability as soon as possible because it must be acknowledged that the people's livelihood problems in this situation are issues that must be urgently resolved. It is hoped that the political sector through the parliamentary system will help each other to follow the democratic process so that Thailand can return to a government with full power to administer the country and grow to its potential. -514 Source: Thai News Agency
