The Securities and Exchange Commission held an urgent press conference on July 9 to announce findings against Suphaporn Phimphongse, who filed seven share trading reports covering six securities with the SEC. SEC Secretary-General Pronngong Bussratakul explained that the reports, initially filed on June 30 and July 2, 2025, showed transactions dating back to 2021. When the SEC identified irregularities, it flagged the data as "preliminary information" on July 3, then escalated the status to "under accuracy verification" on July 7.

The SEC identified several critical inaccuracies: the reporter was not listed as a shareholder on the record closure dates despite reported acquisitions; reported securities did not actually exist during the specified periods; and reported share numbers did not reflect actual transactions, such as warrant exercise amounts that matched another person's convertible bond exercises.

Additionally, the SEC found that Suphaporn filed Form 59 reports (requiring insider status) despite having no legitimate obligation to do so under securities regulations. The SEC removed all associated data from its public disclosure system. SEC officials stressed that the system maintains rigorous identity verification procedures, requiring registration matching government population database records and OTP confirmation via registered phone numbers. "The SEC remains confident in its filing systems," said Deputy Secretary-General Sucha Bunyapanet, noting that the Form 246-2 reporting system remains fully operational despite circulating rumors of closure.

Thanya has finally spoken out, her voice trembling as she clarified her apology regarding a comment she made, but insisted the actual incident occurred a year ago. She explained what led to Pek's status change and pleaded for the matter to end, stating she never wanted ongoing conflict between them. The controversy intensified when her sister Myrra, frustrated by the endless discussion, posted heated comments about Thanya's issues with Pek and Ning, despite Thanya remaining silent. Myrra revealed that the real events happened a year prior and questioned why the other party's apology to Thanya hadn't been mentioned.

Thanya Clarifies Her Apology Comment—But the Real Issue Happened Last Year

During a recent live stream with On Sripan, Thanya addressed Myrra's posts about last year's events, saying: "Since this wasn't resolved, my sister probably wanted to explain on my behalf because she was frustrated that I wasn't speaking up." She admitted the confusion: "People now think I apologized because I misunderstood something, which is silly. When we don't know all the facts or get confirmation, there's nothing we can do about it."

"Years have passed, everyone knows the situation. From what Myrra explained, my sister knows everything. Close friends knew too, but it came out differently," Thanya continued. "When the situation happened, I felt bad. The news spread and I wanted it to stay quiet, but when it didn't, everyone waited for me to speak. But if I speak, the drama never ends. That's just how it is."

Thanya revealed her strategic silence: "I felt Pek's statement was already the best response. I couldn't ask him to say yes or no because either way, it would backfire. Both sides would suffer. It's best to leave it ambiguous and let it end. This way, I'm not lying to anyone. The more I talk, the more damage it causes, so I preferred silence."

"Today I'm clarifying the apology—yes, I apologize for creating the recent news coverage, but last year's events have their own story," she explained. "October 31st was Pek's birthday. According to Myrra, they already cleared things up and apologized. November 1st, after I resolved things with Pek, I couldn't hold back anymore and went live to announce the status change. Everyone saw the atmosphere of that live stream."

"My frustration from that live stream—I was upset and angry, and I could only take it out on Pek, the only person I would do that to. She made me the one who brought up these issues."

Thanya insisted she won't make claims without evidence: "I'm actually a very calm person. I don't easily lash out at people, but I often target Pek because she likes creating problems that stress me out. But it should have ended. Pek said what she said and it should have been over. I didn't want to speak because speaking only prolongs it."

Thiago Scuro, Monaco's general manager, has acknowledged that Paul Pogba, the World Cup-winning French midfielder, may be sold by the club during the upcoming summer transfer window. Pogba recently returned to professional football last season after joining Monaco in France's Ligue 1 on a two-year contract. However, Scuro has now admitted that the midfielder's future with the club remains uncertain and there is a possibility he could leave this summer. "Yes, of course, he might move away, or he might stay. It's a complex matter," Scuro said. "We respect him first and foremost. When he came here, he helped develop many young players. But truthfully, the project with him hasn't worked out as well as we hoped last season. When we started this plan, we expected something quite different." Pogba continues to struggle with fitness and injury concerns, having played only six matches for Monaco totaling just 115 minutes due to issues including fitness problems and injuries to his ankle, thigh, and calf.
