Bangkok: "Phumtham" discusses with the National Security Council to crack down on the call center gang, Cambodian border, and the bombing incident. Phumtham Vejjayachai, Deputy Prime Minister and Defense Minister, led the National Security Council (NSC) meeting to assess the 3-cut measure's progress, aimed at dismantling the Myanmar-based call center gang. The strategy involves cutting off electricity, internet, and oil supplies. The meeting also focused on the situation at the Thai-Cambodian border and the recent bombings in the Andaman province.
According to Thai News Agency, Mr. Arsit Sampantharat, Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Interior, reported on the bombings in Phuket, Krabi, and Phang Nga provinces. Suspects have been questioned, and a comprehensive investigation is underway. Local agencies have been instructed to closely monitor the Andaman Sea tourist areas. It remains uncertain if these matters will be discussed at an upcoming NCPO meeting, pending the chairman's agenda review.
In response to the proposal by the governor of Sa Kaeo Province to cancel the 75th anniversary of Thailand-Cambodia relations and halt all forms of free assistance, such as the construction of the Thai-Cambodia Friendship Bridge, Mr. Arsit noted the need to review the meeting agenda, as he had not yet seen the specifics.
