Ministry to reassess aid applicants
The Finance Ministry plans to reassess the eligibility of 13.8 million state welfare smartcard holders to effectively screen the status of low-income earners eligible for financial aid.
Income is the main assessment criteria as eligible recipients of state welfare benefits will have to meet a low-income threshold as stipulated by the Finance Ministry, said Krisada Chinavicharana, the finance permanent secretary.
