Government House, 'Anutin' reiterates that posting passports for sale from any country is illegal, ordering the Department of Provincial Administration to expand the investigation into Chinese-language billboards to see if there are any gray capital groups behind them. Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior Anutin Charnvirakul spoke about the case of a Facebook user posting a picture of a large billboard in Chinese installed in the Ratchadaphisek area of ??Bangkok, with a message advertising the purchase of passports for moving abroad, saying that yesterday the billboard had been removed and that he had ordered the Department of Provincial Administration to coordinate with the Royal Thai Police to investigate and expand the investigation to see if there was a gray capital group behind it, and whether it was an influential person using Thailand as a base for illegal activities. He would only say that the billboard was not illegal, but the announcement of the sale of passports, regardless of the count ry, was illegal anyway, and that there would be an urgent crackdown. Mr. Anutin said that this was considered an overreaction to have such a large sign posted, so the sign was immediately removed without any regard to Indra or Brahma. The owner of the sign cooperated well and took it down himself. Mr. Anutin reiterated that he had ordered the Department of Provincial Administration to find the perpetrators as soon as possible. Whether it will become a flash in the pan or not depends on how strict the inspections are, and there is no need to instruct the governors because there is a LINE group and everyone is informed at the same time. 'Illegal matters, let's talk about it. But let's just say that breaking the law in Thailand is not tolerated. We don't despise foreigners who come into Thailand, but we despise foreigners who come into our country and break the law in our country. For me, it is considered trampling. We just go and arrest the wrongdoers and kick them out of the country,' said Mr. Anutin. Sou rce: Thai News Agency
