PM Cuts Interview Short Over Southern Border Cabinet Tour Criticism
PM Anutin abruptly ended a press conference at Wat Arun after being questioned about the cabinet's avoidance of three southern border provinces, citing the temple setting before leaving.
At 3:50 p.m. on September 3, 2025, at Wat Arun, Prime Minister and Interior Minister Anutin Charnvirakul spoke about illegal data center installations across multiple areas that have caused public concern. A committee has been established to address the issue, and the PM said he is aware of all problems. When asked if clarity would come soon, Anutin stated that the first meeting will be held tomorrow, September 4, and that everyone already knows their roles and procedures. When a reporter asked about Rakchanok Srinok's criticism that the cabinet tour lacks courage to visit three southern border provinces, the PM cut the conversation short by saying "We're in a temple right now" before immediately leaving the press conference.
