After a meeting of Obec executives Wednesday, Obec secretary-general Chinapat Phumirat said a total of Bt5.487 billion was also prepared to pay these early retirees as the seed money.
As the educational zone offices had sufficient human resource budget to pay for the retirees' welfare allowances at 85 times and to cover the payments for replacement officials in the five-month period, He said the Obec thus didn't need to ask for the Cabinet approval.
