Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha disregarded calls for him to step down and said he is doing what's best for the country, in comments made on Thursday to overseas Thais during his visit to the United States.
Corruption in Thailand must be dealt with for the sake of the country's people, Gen Prayut told representatives of the Thai community in the US at the meeting held at the George Washington Room of the St Regis Hotel in the American capital.
