At 2:00 p.m. on May 12, 2569 at Government House, Prime Minister's spokesperson Rachada Thanadirek announced directives from the cabinet meeting regarding the government's commitment to provide farmers and citizens with agricultural land ownership for livelihood security.

Last week, a Prime Minister's Office regulation on community land titles was repealed because existing legislation already empowers the National Land Policy Committee to oversee citizens' agricultural land issues. However, the Prime Minister has ordered the National Land Policy Committee to expedite the certification of community land titles previously issued under the now-repealed regulation into a fair land distribution format under Section 10 of the National Land Policy Committee Act. This legal status certification must be completed within 60 days.

Spokesperson Rachada stated that the Prime Minister is committed to decisively suppressing nominee schemes with concrete results. Previous enforcement efforts have been implemented in phases with multi-sector coordination involving the Justice Ministry, Commerce Ministry, the Anti-Money Laundering Committee (AMLC), and the Royal Thai Police.

The government has therefore instructed relevant agencies to accelerate measures against the use of nominee schemes in illegal business operations. Following the anti-nominee policy directive, reports emerged of certain lawyers and accountants providing advice or facilitating legal circumvention. These two professions have been identified as containing individuals misusing their expertise to create loopholes for nominee business activities. The Prime Minister has assigned the Justice Minister and Commerce Minister to consult with the Bar Association and Accounting Professions Council to consider professional ethics actions against involved practitioners, while instructing the AMLC to investigate financial trails of related persons to ensure concrete anti-nominee results.

On May 13, the Prime Minister is scheduled to visit Koh Phangan in Surat Thani Province and Phuket to monitor the situation and direct anti-nominee enforcement in key tourism areas, emphasizing the government's intensive nationwide inspection to prevent illegal groups from encroaching on professions or harming citizens and Thai entrepreneurs.

On May 12, 2025, General Chaiyapruks Duangprathet, Chief of the Royal Thai Army and Commander of the Army Operations Center, conducted an on-site inspection of the Sai Yok border checkpoint area in Buriram Province to monitor security operations and evaluate safety measures in the region.

He subsequently visited and offered encouragement to Aphirak Butphet at his residence in Ban Kwad District, Buriram Province, following an incident in which both men encountered an armed group of Cambodian soldiers while gathering forest products. The encounter raised concerns among local residents living near the border.

The Army Chief directed the Suranari Command to adjust military deployment appropriately, deploy enhanced border surveillance equipment and support systems, and install additional monitoring devices to improve operational effectiveness and ensure comprehensive area coverage. He also ordered all units to maintain maximum readiness of personnel and equipment, capable of protecting national sovereignty and ensuring public safety at all times, in accordance with policies prioritizing security along all Thai border areas.

Victorina Himeji, a Japanese volleyball club, has confirmed its separation from Thai national volleyball player Chatchachon Moksoree, known as 'Boombim,' after three seasons of partnership. The club announced that the 26-year-old player will depart at the end of the 2025-26 season. Since joining Victorina Himeji in 2023, Chatchachon has supported the team with her brilliant smile and powerful playing skills. The club expressed heartfelt gratitude, stating: "We are sad to announce that Chatchachon Moksoree will leave our team at the end of the 2025-26 season. Throughout the three seasons she has been with us, she has continuously dedicated herself to the team, and we all wish her continued success on her new journey. Thank you, BB."

In response, Chatchachon shared through the club's announcement: "I have decided to leave the club. Thank you for all the encouragement throughout these three seasons. I have spent wonderful time at this outstanding club and feel I have grown greatly as a person. I have always received support from our fans. Winning the V2 Division championship and promotion to the SV League, along with capturing the Emperor's & Empress's Cup in 2024 together with the team and fans, are invaluable experiences I will never forget in my volleyball career. None of this would have been possible without the support of our fans and sponsors. I am grateful to the coaches, staff, and all my teammates who have always taken care of me. Please continue supporting Victorina Himeji, a team I love very much. Thank you so much."

On Friday, May 1, 2026, at 10:30 a.m., His Majesty graciously appointed Air Chief Marshal Chom Rungsawang, a royal advisor, to present a certificate of rank, fan, and three-colored cloth to Venerable Phra Thepvichiryan Sundhorn at Wat Phutthavanaram (Wat Pa Wang Nam Yen) in Mueang District, Maha Sarakham Province.

The Sovereign issued a royal charter on April 16, 2026, elevating the venerable to the rank of Phra Racha Khana Chadnimitti with the royal title 'Phra Thepvichiryan Sundhorn Bowordhammapani Siribhawananustittha Mahakanissara Buworsangkharam Kamwasi,' of the Vipassana tradition, currently stationed at Wat Mahachai Royal Monastery in Maha Sarakham Province, with five subordinate temples registered under his name.

The Director of the National Office of Buddhism assigned Supathorn Muangmaj, Director of the Buddhist Education Division, along with officials from the National Office of Buddhism and the Maha Sarakham Provincial Buddhist Office, to participate in the ceremony and assist with sangha affairs.

Venerable Phra Thepvichiryan Sundhorn, formerly known as Suriyant Wanasasub, is a renowned Buddhist scholar from Maha Sarakham, tracing his spiritual lineage from the late Venerable Luang Pu Kamphan Kosobunyo, a celebrated meditation master from Nakhon Phanom Province.

Currently 47 years old with 27 years of monastic service, he serves as the abbot of Wat Pa Wang Nam Yen in Geung Sub-district, Mueang District, and as assistant abbot of Wat Mahachai Royal Monastery. Born on February 13, 1979, in Maha Sarakham Province to parents Thongchai and Lamun, he was ordained at age 15 at Wat Don Kloi in Kalasin Province.

He was fully ordained on April 17, 1999, and subsequently traveled throughout Northeast Thailand's forests seeking spiritual advancement. Learning of Luang Pu Kamphan's reputation, he became his student and studied advanced meditation techniques, ancient scriptures, and sacred amulet-making rituals for four years.

In 2006, after returning to Maha Sarakham, devoted followers invited him to establish Wat Phutthavanaram (Wat Pa Wang Nam Yen), which has flourished through the patronage of donors. The temple features remarkable permanent structures, including the nation's largest wooden dharma hall, constructed entirely from hardwood.
