Visited the Maha Sarakhan province The first point of travel is Phayakkhaphum Phisai District Office To meet with government agencies to follow up on solutions to drought problems, drug problems, and informal debt. Along with meeting fellow citizens, local MPs came to welcome us. Including Mr. Lattachai Ch okchai Wattanakarn Maha Sarakham Provincial MP, District 3, Bhumjaithai Party The owner of the area was waiting to welcome him. While Mr. Suthin Khlangsaeng, Minister of Defense As the owner of the area Today I did not travel to visit the area. Due to a mission to travel abroad The Prime Minister walked in a Toyota Alphard, registration no. 8 KP 1127. As soon as the Prime Minister arrived, there was a group of Phayakkhaphum Phisai sub-district mothers. Came to tie a horse's loincloth to welcome him. Then the Prime Minister Received a briefing on problems in the area. Before giving the policy, the income of people here per capita is still low. And it still depends a lot on the agricultural sector, so water is the main factor that we have to manage. Just a moment ago, the numbers were clear. The amount of rain is still not enough to meet the needs of people in the agricultural sector. Therefore, there was a discussion with the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives. Provide mainte nance, dredging of canals, and improvements to the water supply system. Let everyone have water to drink and use. Ready to coordinate development efforts Let's come in and take care of water to have enough in every dimension. As for the problem of informal debt, it is a deep problem in Thai society. How much work? It was not enough to pay off the debt, but it turned out that there were less than 3,000 people registered to solve debt outside the system, even though officials in every department were working hard to get everyone into the system. Let there be mediation with the debtors. But the numbers are still not satisfactory. Because as we know, the debt figure is over one hundred billion. Therefore, I would like the debtor to come and inform the security department more clearly. I will look at the issue of influence. Various things that come to intimidate Ready to admit that crime problem Part and most of the drug problem It arises from debt. If the problem of informal debt can be solved, various problems will be reduced. Prime Minister Another big problem was also mentioned: drugs. which is considered a big problem in the northeastern region Each political party has a campaign, which is why they are called MPs. They know that the biggest problem for the people is drugs. This comes from both debt and legal laxity. Therefore, we request all sectors to pay attention to this matter. To provide appropriate care to the people, ask the Police, Narcotics Control Board, Ministry of Interior. Ministry of Justice Prepare a list of drug users, both large and small, with a suppression period not exceeding 90 days from today. Those who have drugs in their possession are considered guilty. Let's look at their clear intentions. Are you a user or a seller? Must be dealt with decisively. and request that the results be reported to the Prime Minister's Office every month. Please focus on measures to seize property and burn and destroy seized items. Destruction of the seized items must be done quickly. Do not move frequently. B ecause there will be doubts in society. The Prime Minister said that in the case of addicts, please take care that they are patients and must receive treatment. Request that local government organizations, public health, and the interior work in an integrated manner. Open a local treatment center that can be controlled, such as military camps, with the public health department coming in to help with treatment and care Request that there be security and administrative officials to take care of safety. Please be strict and consider the safety of the people as your main priority. The Prime Minister also concluded that confiscation process It must be done quickly to intercept along the border. Do not let drugs leak in to deal with drug dealers. It is strictly a matter of involving the community in solving problems. To bring the village into participation and integration, everyone must help each other. I would like to emphasize again that this road is a long way off. I believe that we have a clear plan, but the problem still exists. The price of methamphetamine is still not high and there is still a lot of it. We have to work harder.
