Thailand attempts to stimulate economy by giving cash to poor

Thailand's military government has approved a one-time payout for low-income people in an effort to stimulate the country's weak economy.

People who make less than 30,000 baht (£680) a year will receive 3,000 baht (£68), while people who make up to 100,000 baht (£2,267) a year will receive 1,500 baht (£34).
