Social Security Board Election Registration Deadline One Week Away

Social Security Board Election Registration Deadline One Week Away
8 Jul Khaosod

At 11:30 a.m. on July 8, 2569 at Parliament, Rakchonok Sri-nok, a People's Party list MP, held a press conference calling on the Social Security Office and large employers to cooperate in the Social Security Board election registration. She noted that only one week remains for registration. As of today, 750,000 insured persons have registered out of approximately 10 million total, while only 6,000 employers have registered out of 500,000. She criticized the Social Security Office's data presentation methods, stating that cumulative graphs from day one are statistically ineffective and should instead show weekly or daily breakdowns to reveal meaningful proportions.

Rakchonok also complained that provincial data displays only ten provinces at a time, requiring users to manually scroll to view other regions. She urged the Social Security Office to improve data accessibility and provide clearer information about employee and employer registration numbers without requiring users to check province by province. She noted that employer registration has been made unnecessarily complicated, requiring photocopies of ID cards and business development documents. She referenced Deputy Prime Minister Suphajee Sutharmanphand's commitment to streamline inter-agency data sharing and called on the Social Security Office to coordinate with the Interior Department and Business Development Department to simplify the registration process.

Rakchonok emphasized that the Social Security Office should have learned from previous elections and addressed employer complaints about registration obstacles. She demanded that the office promptly notify applicants if documents are incomplete and specify what additional steps are needed. She concluded by noting that staff at the Social Security Office should implement these improvements rather than allowing rigid bureaucratic systems to continue producing substandard results.
