Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha has insisted that Thailand is better able to deal with inflation and the rising cost of living than other countries, amid criticism of the government's failure to handle the problems.
In a post on his official Facebook account, Gen Prayut wrote that inflation and the high prices of goods caused by the economic impacts of Covid-19 are a major concern for the public, and the government is stepping up efforts to address the problems.
