The government is ready to take action, even in a caretaker position before the next administration takes power, should global volatility affect the country's economy or financial system, Finance Minister Arkhom Termpittayapaisith told reporters.
His remark was in response to the global stock market rout last week following the collapse of three US banks, which sent shockwaves through the financial industry, with stocks plunging and public confidence shaken.
