Paetongtarn Shinawatra, chief of Pheu Thai’s Inclusion and Innovation Advisory Committee, said in its special meeting on its “Think Big, Act Smart, For All Thais” campaign that ongoing considerable problems needed to be solved by the people who can “think big” and “act smart”.
She said that if the Pheu Thai Party comes to power and remains in tenure for four years, Thai people can reduce their expenses, increase income and have more opportunities and the gross domestic product will rise by at least 5% a year.
