Labour minister vows policy aid amid fuel crisisLabour Minister Julapun Amornvivat. Workers remain at the centre of government policy, and measures will be pushed to ease their burden during a prolonged energy crisis, Labour Minister Julapun Amornvivat said yesterday. Mr Julapun also pointed out that cooperation with other ministries is essential, as no single agency can address labour issues alone. "From now on, training programmes will be market-driven, so workers will develop skills that increase productivity and income," he said. The minister said that timely delivery of welfare benefits is a priority, as delays can worsen hardship among affected groups.
