PR Thai Government

The provider of official news and information about Thailand "Public relations mean relations among the public, or to make the people understand one another.
(211)

Almost all undertakings have to rely on public relations. If all invloved attentively perform their duties in common interest, we can rest assured that the general public will benefit and prosper." An excerpt from His Majesty the King's royal speech delivered to the Executive Board of the Public Relations Association of Thailand at Chitralada Villa, 25 March 1980

02/08/2026

Ms. Supamas Isarabhakdi, Minister Attached to the Prime Minister’s Office, has directed the Government’s media agencies—the Government Public Relations Department (PRD) and MCOT Public Company Limited—to strengthen public communication following the murder of two Russian siblings and a related case in Chon Buri Province that resulted in a total of five deaths.

The case has attracted widespread attention in Thailand and abroad. The Government has therefore stepped up public communication to ensure that accurate and timely information reaches both domestic and international audiences.

Ms. Supamas said that Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul had personally visited the crime scene to express his condolences to the victims’ families and apologize to Russian tourists and the Russian people. He emphasized that the incident was an isolated criminal act, not a reflection of Thailand’s overall safety, and reaffirmed the Government’s commitment to ensuring that justice is served.

Following the Prime Minister’s directives, Ms. Supamas instructed PRD and MCOT to disseminate verified information through key government media channels, including the National Broadcasting Services of Thailand (NBT), Radio Thailand, MCOT Channel 9 HD, Thai News Agency, and PRD’s foreign-language services. These agencies have been tasked with informing the public that the suspects were arrested within few days of the incident, that legal proceedings are underway, and that the Government continues to provide timely updates through official channels.

She also instructed state media to report developments in accordance with professional journalistic ethics by avoiding graphic images or content that could undermine the dignity of the victims and their families. In addition, she directed the Sure and Share Center of Thai News Agency to intensify efforts to verify and counter false or misleading information related to the case circulating online, ensuring that the public receives accurate and reliable information.

Ms. Supamas said that the Government is committed to ensuring that factual information reaches both domestic and international audiences while preventing misinformation from causing further distress to the victims’ families. She urged the public to rely on official sources for updates and encouraged anyone who encounters suspicious or unverified information related to the case to submit it to the Sure and Share Center of Thai News Agency for verification.

Following media reports concerning the End of Mission Statement issued at the conclusion of the visit to Cambodia by Mr. Tom Andrews, the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Situation of Human Rights in Cambodia, during 20–31 July 2026, which references Thailand in the context of the Thailand–Cambodia situation, Thailand would like to make the following clarifications:

Thailand notes the aforementioned Statement and wishes to reiterate that the conflict between the two countries, resulting in various impacts, was not initiated by Thailand, but resulted from indiscriminate attacks by the Cambodian side targeting civilian areas in Thailand.

Regarding the Special Rapporteur’s reference to the alleged 650,000 Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in Cambodia, the fact remains that a portion of the figure were Cambodians residing in areas Thailand previously opened up as temporary shelters in the late 1970s as part of its humanitarian assistance. However, following improvements to their situation, these individuals did not return to Cambodia despite repeated protests formally lodged by the Thai side with the Cambodian side. Therefore, they constitute individuals who had encroached on Thai territory and do not fall within the definition of an IDP.

Thailand is of the view that the right of return should not be exploited for political purposes or propaganda, but upheld alongside genuine humanitarian concerns and principles. In this regard, the Cambodian Government has the responsibility to care for and protect its citizens affected by conflict resulting in internal displacement within Cambodia, particularly concerning their right to life and safety. Cambodia also has an obligation to ensure that such individuals, especially the vulnerable ones, have access to adequate shelter, standard of living, food, clean water, sanitation and essential public health services.

With regard to Cambodian migrant workers returning from Thailand, which the Special Rapporteur alleged that the number amounted to 900,000 persons, in fact, the Cambodian workers who returned home included both legally employed workers and those who had entered and worked in Thailand illegally. These workers returned to Cambodia voluntarily following calls made by the Cambodian Government itself. The Thai Government has always stated its commitment to ensuring the safety of Cambodian migrant workers in Thailand and has never had a policy to expel these migrant workers from the country.

Thailand reaffirms its commitment to the promotion and protection of human rights, as well as respect for international humanitarian law. Thailand has consistently cooperated with the Special Procedures under the United Nations Human Rights Council (HRC) and has already provided relevant explanations to the said mechanism, which have been officially recorded. This reflects Thailand’s commitment to promoting transparency, accountability and the protection of human rights in accordance with its international obligations.

Thailand is of the view that the Special Procedures under the United Nations Human Rights Council should uphold the principles of independence, impartiality and objectivity, while taking into consideration information from credible and verifiable sources, as well as facts and perspectives from all sides in a comprehensive and fair manner. This is essential to ensuring that human rights assessments are balanced and consistent with the mandates of the Special Procedures.

Thailand is ready to look forward and rebuild relations with Cambodia. However, such efforts require genuine and sincere cooperation from Cambodia. Both parties should work together to create a conducive environment through the strict implementation of the Joint Statement of 27 December 2025, including the reduction of tensions and refraining from actions or allegations that may be provocative, create misunderstandings, or undermine mutual trust. This would pave the way for addressing issues relating to border security through peaceful means and continued engagement through bilateral mechanisms.

Royal Initiative of Sustainable Fashion

Recognized as a pioneering figure in sustainable fashion, Her Majesty Queen Sirikit The Queen Mother championed eco-friendly, ethical fashion by preserving traditional handloom weaving and empowering rural artisans to create natural, biodegradable Thai silk.

In 1976, Her Majesty founded the Foundation for the Promotion of Supplementary Occupation and Related Techniques (SUPPORT Foundation), which has incorporated local wisdom of traditional silk and cotton weaving to generate income for local villagers. The Foundation focuses on natural dyeing techniques and relies on natural fibers.

Drawing upon the Queen Mother’s legacy for inspiration, Her Royal Highness Princess Sirivannavari Nariratana Rajakanya envisions sustainability that is interwoven with traditional Thai craftsmanship and local wisdom. Her Royal Highness spearheads the "Sustainable Fashion" initiative, with an emphasis on the use of natural pigments, fibers, and low-carbon production techniques. This initiative is also in line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, through environmentally conscious practices in fabric and handicraft production.

Her Royal Highness believes that sustainable fashion can empower local weavers and entrepreneurs to lead sustainable lives and foster economic stability in their homeland, in accordance with the Philosophy of Sufficiency Economy, advocated and developed by His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej The Great (Rama IX).

Thailand Unveils 5 Task Forces to Turbocharge Its Economy by 2029

Thailand just announced five task forces to reshape its economy. Here's what global investors need to know.

The Joint Public-Private Committee to Solve Economic Problems, chaired by Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Ekniti Nitithanprapas, greenlit five strategic task forces to drive structural reform and boost national competitiveness.

Here's the lineup:
● Industrial Transformation & Investment — chaired by the Board of Investment (BOI) Secretary-General
● AI & Digital Technology — chaired by the National Economic and Social Development Council (NESDC) Secretary-General
● Green Economy — chaired by Kulit Sombatsiri, former Permanent Secretary of Energy
● Financial Hub Development — chaired by the Permanent Secretary of Finance
● High-Value Medical & Health Services — chaired by the Permanent Secretary of Public Health

Each chair has been tasked with defining priority projects, teaming up with the private sector, and rolling out "Quick Big Win" plans, with progress reviewed again this August.

The bigger picture? Thailand is targeting:
◇ GDP growth above 3% ("Three Plus")
◇ Investment (public + private) up from 22–23% to 30% of GDP
◇ A spot in the world's Top 20 most competitive economies by 2029

What makes this initiative stand out is the joint public-private structure — pooling fiscal policy, financial tools, investment incentives, and capital market mechanisms under one coordinated push, rather than leaving reform to a single ministry.

For international investors and businesses watching Southeast Asia, this signals where Thailand wants to compete next: advanced manufacturing, digital/AI infrastructure, green industry, financial services, and medical tourism.

Worth watching how these "Quick Win" plans shape up over the coming months.

Clarification on the Allegations Regarding the Detention of Prisoners of War (POWs)

The Joint Information Center on the Thailand-Cambodian Situation (JIC) firmly rejects the allegations made by the Cambodian side concerning the detention of 18 prisoners of war. The call for an investigation into this matter is an attempt to fabricate a new narrative and distort the facts, which goes completely against the evidence and the actual events that transpired.

Throughout their custody in Thailand, the POWs were treated in strict accordance with the related guidelines and principles under International Humanitarian Law. This standard of care was witnessed and corroborated by the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), which conducted visits to the POWs.

Furthermore, following the conclusion of the ceasefire agreement, Thailand proceeded to repatriate all POWs.

The JIC urges all parties to refrain from fabricating narratives or reviving issues that have concluded. Such actions only distort the truth and negatively impact bilateral relations and the atmosphere of mutual trust.

Response regarding a statement made by the Spokesperson of the Cambodian Ministry of Defence in relation to the Joint Boundary Commission (JBC)

The JIC takes note of a statement made by the Spokesperson of the Cambodian Ministry of Defence during a briefing to the ASEAN Observer Team in Cambodia (AOT-KH) and wishes to clarify the following key points:

1. Thailand remains committed to resolving border issues peacefully and through mechanisms agreed upon by both sides. Thailand attaches importance to all relevant bilateral mechanisms, including the Thailand-Cambodia Joint Boundary Commission (JBC), the General Border Committee (GBC), and other mechanisms as agreed upon by both sides, with the goal of promoting overall border security, including undertaking survey and demarcation efforts as mutually agreed.

2. The claim that Thailand has used force to occupy Cambodian territory is a unilateral accusation that does not reflect the facts. Thailand rejects this accusation, as it has consistently affirmed that its actions are in accordance with the Joint Statement agreed by both sides on 27 December 2025, which includes measures to de-escalate tensions and maintain stability along the border.

3. Thailand is ready to support the work of the JBC when the environment is conducive to such cooperation. Survey and demarcation efforts require trust, ensuring the safety of officials from both sides, and respect for the related technical processes. Therefore, it is crucial to avoid communicating these issues in a way that could create misunderstandings within the international community.

4. Thailand cooperates transparently with ASEAN observer teams. Thailand continues to be willing to provide information and facts, and facilitate the work of the ASEAN observer team, so that assessments of the situation are based on complete, comprehensive and verifiable information.

5. Lasting peace must be based on facts, not false allegations. Thailand believes that building mutual trust can only be achieved through adherence to joint agreements, respect for bilateral mechanisms, and avoiding disseminating unilateral allegations that have not been jointly verified or proven.

The JIC calls on all parties to utilize existing mechanisms to resolve issues constructively, so that survey and demarcation efforts can proceed safely, transparently and for the benefit of the people of both countries, leading to lasting peace and stability in the Thai-Cambodian border area.
