The survey took place between December 10 to 14, 2024. One of the questions asked about the top three ministers of the Ministry of Social Affairs that survey participants were most satisfied with. The results showed that the Ministry of Labour, represented by Mr. Phiphat Ratchakitprakarn, Minister of Labour, was ranked second, with a score of 7.41 out of 10.
