Bangkok: Deputy Government Spokesperson requests media cooperation in reporting news from reliable sources, fearing that fake news will not benefit Thailand in the international arena. Ms. Sasikan Wattanachan, Deputy Government Spokesperson, announced after the Cabinet meeting that the current political and border situation, including various threats, is quite tense. She therefore requests cooperation from both Thai and international media to report news from reliable sources. She can follow news updates from Government House and the Thai-Cambodian Border Situation Administration Center (TBSA) because there is a lot of fake news these days, some of which is not good for Thailand in the international arena.
