Bhumjaithai will support digital wallet loan bill if it is constitutional

Bhumjaithai leader Anutin Charnvirakul

Interior Minister Anutin Charnvirakul said today that his Bhumjaithai party will support the government’s loan bill for the digital wallet scheme, if it does not contravene the Constitution.

As a member of the coalition government, he said that, although the scheme was initiated by the Pheu Thai party, the success of the scheme should be treated as an achievement of the whole government.

The Bhumjaithai party leader said that the party’s MPs will definitely vote for the bill in parliament because, when the bill reaches parliament, it means that it has been approved by the cabinet, the Council of State and the Bank of Thailand.

Speaking from San Francisco, Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin told Thai media that the government is waiting for confirmation, from the Council of State, concerning the constitutionality of the loan bill.
