Senator begins debate against government today with scathing attack on PM

13 Sept 06:01 Key points summarised by AI

Senator Seree Suwanpanont initiated a general debate by sharply criticizing the Prime Minister for acting like a salesman during overseas visits and underperforming without significant achievements.
Seree accused the government of failing to improve citizens' lives, dismissing the delayed budget bill as an excuse, and questioned the efficacy of the controversial "digital wallet" scheme.
The Senator also charged the government with eroding the justice system through selective law application, seemingly in favor of a specific individual, and failing to resolve informal debt due to debtors' fears of reprisals.
