Billionaire businesswoman Daranee "Madam Keng" Thianthawornwong's Thairath Talk interview attracted 143,450 YouTube views in two days, outpacing a rival amulet expert's five-month view count. In the interview, she clarified a 600-million-baht debt dispute, challenged her opponent to sue her, and refuted claims about travel times. The full episode airs on Thairath TV Channel 32 on October 24.
Madam Keng's interview on Thairath Talk has drawn massive attention, particularly within the amulet community, after the program aired her revealing sit-down with billionaire businesswoman Daranee Thianthawornwong — owner of Chi Villa & Spa Ayutthaya and executive at M.C.S. Steel — on the evening of October 20. Within two days, the YouTube clip racked up 143,450 views, quickly overtaking the previous viral interview featuring her counterpart Sian Phra, which took about five months (since its May 14 release) to reach roughly 140,706 views. The rapid climb underscores how public interest has swung heavily toward the creditor's side of the dispute.
In the interview, Madam Keng clarified the debt at approximately 600 million baht, not the 800 million previously reported. She stood firm, daring the other party to sue her immediately rather than wait days. Regarding a disputed 260 million baht sum, she stated it could not be waived because it was a large amount not brought in casually.
She also rebutted claims about travel time, saying the journey from her home in Ratchakram would take at least 70 minutes even without traffic, yet the other side alleged only 20 minutes. She explained she drove her Bentley herself, got lost on Rama V–Bang Kruai roads, and the trip took 90 minutes, calling the 20-minute claim a blatant lie.
Madam Keng challenged the other party to file a lawsuit so the truth can be publicly tested, noting she has been attacked in over ten media appearances. She confirmed the show's producers did not provide questions in advance and argued the feud only escalated because Sian Phra's side went to the media first. The full broadcast airs on Thairath TV Channel 32 this Saturday, October 24, at 15:45, with replays on all Thairath social platforms.
