Economists laud political parties’ proposals to reduce income inequality
Economist have welcomed policies proposed by rival political parties in the run-up to general election, but they are sceptical about the financing plans and their effective implementation.
The Democrat Party last week announced six key economic policies to address the needs of low-income groups at around the same time as arch-rival Pheu Thai unveiled its broad policies. The previous week, the debutante Future Forward Party had put forward bold proposals to address the widening inequality in society.
