BANGKOK, 3rd June 2018 (NNT) – Farmers and people who have informal debts can request assistance from Damrongtham centers in their communities.
Defense Ministry Spokesman Lt Gen Kongcheep Tantravanich said today the prime minister had instructed the Ministry of Defense and the National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO) to help people in all areas especially the country's farmers to settle or mediate their debts.
Individuals with informal debts or money owed to creditors that are not financial institutions or governmental agencies can file for assistance at Damrongtham centers nationwide.
Anyone unable to settle debts will have their balance transferred to a state-run financial institution.
In the next six months, the Internal Security Operations Command will be collecting feedback from local communities for evaluation, so that the administration can take additional measures to help indebted individuals.
