THAILAND'S NEWLY appointed economic czar, Somkid Jatusripitak, is expected to restore consumer and business confidence by bringing to the job his expertise in international marketing and grass-roots economy management, as his team replaces Deputy Prime Minister MR Pridiyathorn Devakula and the other economic ministers.
Among the top priorities of the new team would be jump-starting the economy with an injection of funds and launching new measures and campaigns to boost the country's international image, especially in the wake of Monday's deadly blast at Bangkok's Erawan Shrine, which jolted the tourism industry.
Many businesspeople have high regard for the Somkid team, which includes Finance Minister Apisak Tantivorawong (a former Krungthai Bank CEO); Information and Communications Technology Minister Uttama Savanayana; and Deputy Commerce Minister Suvit Maesincee.
In addition, Somkid as the deputy premier in charge of economic affairs will work with new Commerce Minister Apiradi Tantraporn; new Industry Minister Atchaka Sibunruang; new Transport Minister Arkhom Termpittayapaisith; and new Deputy Transport Minister Omsin Chivapreuk, who is chairman of the State Railway of Thailand.
Supporters said the new team is expected to take more proactive measures and oversee more efficient implementation of the existing policies.
Apisak is regarded as one of Somkid's close colleagues, as they used to work together at IFCT before the financial crisis of 1997.
