Prawit, the first deputy prime minister, was asked the question by a reporter at Government House. He told reporters that the media should do the assessment.
He has taken the acting PM role since August 24, when the Constitutional Court ordered Prayut’s suspension, pending its verdict on whether he has completed his eight-year term as prime minister.
When asked what he would do if he had to continue serving as acting PM, Prawit responded: “I don’t know. I still don’t know now what to do next”.
