I will quit if I could not solve the country's problems : PM
Prime Minister Surayud Chulanont reiterated on Thursday that he will stay on as prime minister and is considering to reshuffle his cabinet.
However he said he would consider quitting if he could not solve the country's problems or being under political pressure.
"I am considering reshuffling my cabinet. I do not think of resigning as I intend to finish my term. However I may think about resigning if I fail to handle the country's problems," he said.
He was speaking at the Government House, a day after he was discharged from a hospital. He was admitted to Bangkok hospital on Monday for scheduled medical check up.
Rumours had it that he would resign soon following conflicts with the Council for National Security members and he could not handle the growing dissatisfaction of the public over his government's poor performance.
He denied he had reached a deal with ousted prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra so that he could escape the punishment.
Surayud also reiterated that CNS promised that there would be more coup by them.
