Cabinet Meeting Tense! Ministers from Bhumjaithai and Kla Dharma Show No Interaction, Gloomy Atmosphere Prevails

On February 17th, during the Cabinet meeting chaired by Deputy Prime Minister Sophon Saramay, 7 ministers were absent, including Anutin Charnvirakul and Thammanat Prompao. The meeting atmosphere was notably tense and silent, with ministers from Bhumjaithai and Kla Dharma parties showing no interaction. Several agenda items were withdrawn and deferred to the next government, such as a proposal by Commerce Minister Supajee Suthumphunth regarding foreign labor business regulations. Notably, the typical friendly exchanges between ministers were absent, with Kla Dharma ministers sitting silently with serious expressions, while Bhumjaithai ministers continued casual conversations.
