Sutin also told the villagers to be patient and that the government would definitely hand out the 10,000 baht promised to them under the digital wallet scheme.
He said the Srettha government was finding funding sources for the scheme as the previous administration had left behind a huge debt.
After the rice harvesting activity, the Nong Bua Lamphu deputy governor gave Sutin a shirt made from cloth painted with Lai Bua Lamphu, a lotus pattern, which is the symbol of the province.
The provincial administration said that after the Cabinet members don the shirt made with cloth designed with the new pattern at the mobile Cabinet meeting, the provincial administration would allow groups of villagers to use the pattern on clothes for sale.
The provincial administration said this year groups of villagers had sold clothes made from local fabric valued at over 1 billion baht.
