Dr. Samchai critiques the government's civil service reform plan, arguing that the proposed early retirement of 30,000 positions cannot realistically achieve the stated goal of reducing recurrent spending from 70% to 30% of the budget. He warns the plan risks repeating past failures—staff may simply return as outsourced contractors rather than delivering genuine cost savings. Real reform requires structural change beyond headcount reduction: cutting administrative positions, improving service quality, and reducing corruption—not ad-hoc layoffs. Policy uncertainty itself damages morale more than reform itself.
