13 Sept 11:57Key points summarised by AI
Governor Chadchart Sittipunt graded his first year in office at 5 out of 10, stating that 211 of his 226 campaign policies have been implemented, with the modest score intended to drive further improvements.
He identified corruption as the most challenging issue and acknowledged underperformance in areas like the urban economy and fresh market development, aiming to foster a more people-centred, efficient, and transparent working style among city officials.
Significant achievements include resolving over 200,000 public complaints via the “Traffy Fondue” system, upgrading public infrastructure with new LED bulbs and resurfaced pavements, and enhancing school services by increasing lunch values and providing computers.
