“Changing horses” in the middle of a battle, “good news” or “bad news”?

I have been writing about good news from Thailand for several days in a row. Even though it’s just a small piece of news, it’s considered meaningful. After reading it, “Jai Fu” is happy and has the encouragement to continue working despite the many “bad news” stories that have arisen. Some small evils, some big ones, but I don’t bring them up to talk about or write about. Because it is considered that during the last 2-3 weeks It’s a happy week. It’s an auspicious week. Because it is the time of the Thai New Year festival plus the Rattanakosin Festival which has lived for 242 years, bad news should not be talked about. which has been born and formed all this time, even though it is a time when there should be only good things like that, but at this time the good festival has already passed. Talking about bad news, no one would think that it would bring something inauspicious to Thailand. The first bad news is The change and transfer of a number of government ministers has been in the headlines since last week. Why did I make the news? “Changing ministers” is bad news? Reason number 1 is because this government has only been in existence for 8 months. Ideally, it should still be in the new rice phase. According to the average of changing ministers in each government in the past, it usually took more than 1 year at least, but this was only 238 days, about 8 months (on the day I wrote this). Changing them already means that there must be some kind of problem in the government. Of course, according to management theory, whether managing a company, managing an organization, or managing a country, the participants in management should not be changed as it is called. “Changing horses mid-battle” should be done too quickly, using the same horse to continue fighting until the battle can be conquered. Or when the time is right, for example, the horse is starting to get tired. Starting to have wounds They were starting to get injured to the point where they couldn’t fight with us like before. I didn’t see any horses that were tired or tired. Some are still strong and working very well. Many good policies were born. Got changed midway For example, the Ministry of Public Health has no way to assume otherwise than to assume that there is a “problem” (I don’t know what) occurring in the Pheu Thai Party to the point of Change the horse that is still strong and fierce in the battle… like Dr. Chonnan stubbornly loses, but some knowledgeable people tell me that it’s also in management principles. If we find a better horse Or we find that winning battles quickly requires better horses. Because when we first went to war, time constraints made us decide to use some horses first, so when the time came to make a decisive attack, it was reasonable to find new, strong horses to be added in time. I asked what the policy was. This government wants quick and decisive results during this period? Received an answer that the policy is to distribute digital money of 10,000 baht… The government has confirmed that it must move forward in changing horses for the Ministry of Finance who will be responsible for finding money to distribute in order for this policy to move forward. Therefore it was necessary to do this and the government by the Pheu Thai Party itself organized a “new horse” to reinforce the ministry that was firmly established. If the above analysis is true, it means that what I gave to the news of “Changing horses in the middle of a battle” is “bad news” is correct because changing horses in Case 1 may have an impact on the work of an important ministry of the country that is driving many important long-term policies such as As for the results, it may have to be slowed down somewhat, which is considered bad news. Small things that don’t take a lot of time should be able to adjust. As for the second case, changing horses to achieve the policy goal of distributing 10,000 baht of digital money to each person, if it’s like what the hon. Knowing the analysis, it is considered to be “bad news” that may prolong and escalate because the policy of distributing digital money is a high-risk policy. And there was a lot of opposition from academics and people who cared about the country, including The Bank of Thailand’s policy is to spend up to 500 billion baht, which must come from the sweat of taxpayers, with no way to avoid protest from taxpayers. Therefore, it will inevitably become louder and louder. It is normal, therefore, the government’s determination to move forward. Therefore it will be a source of conflict that may become stronger and stronger in the future. It will not make me feel frightened and think that How can changing horses in the middle of this battle be “bad news”?” “Zoom” click to read the column. More “Hehapati”
