PM resumes official duties


PRAYUT Chan-o-cha (pic) resumed official duties as Thailand’s prime minister after the country’s top court lifted a five-week suspension and settled in his favour a dispute surrounding his term limits.

The 68-year-old premier attended a meeting to review the flood situation in some parts of the country yesterday and is scheduled to meet with a couple of foreign envoys later in the afternoon. He will visit the flood-ravaged rural northeast today, according to his office.
