Looking at the “retirement lottery” policy, the government still hasn’t communicated enough.

'Sirikanlaya' sees the government's 'retirement lottery policy' as not communicating enough. The policy was issued but not studied, which may cause the public to be uninterested. Ms. Sirikanya Tansakul, deputy leader of the Move Forward Party, talked about the survey results on the retirement lottery that the public ignored and disagreed with, saying that she understands that the public may not receive much details because this project is still in the study stage. This is the time when the government has a policy but has not studied all aspects to be ready to reveal details to the public, resulting in less campaigning or understanding of the PR of the project. Of course, when the word lottery is mentioned and used during retirement, there may be a lot of debate in society. Therefore, the government must communicate more with the public. One reason why the public is still not interested is because the amount spent is low and may not be enough to live after retirement. It is just an additional amount for savi ng money in other forms, so the public may not be interested. The government must publicize and make the public understand more. When asked if the public might think it is not worth it, Ms. Sirikanya said that we need to look into the details to see how much the government will be able to invest this money instead of us. If we start saving from a young age, we might get something substantial. But the government might have really communicated too little about this. Source: Thai News Agency
