On October 14, 2026, Prime Minister and Minister of Interior Anutin Charnvirakul gave an interview following the Cabinet meeting regarding the progress of the 'Thai Helps Thai' project, a policy that has garnered significant public interest.
The Prime Minister clarified that, at this moment, the project has not yet been officially presented to the Cabinet for consideration because there are still preparatory steps regarding the details, particularly concerning the adjustment of the budget sources to be used for this project.
Regarding the issue of adjusting budget sources, Mr. Anutin stated that the government needs to wait for the relevant agencies or the bill sponsors to submit the matter and provide clear details for consideration first, in order to ensure that the budget allocation is conducted correctly and transparently in accordance with government regulations.
The Prime Minister did not specify a clear timeframe for when this matter would be brought to the Cabinet meeting, but he affirmed that the government is accelerating the relevant processes so that the project can proceed according to the planned roadmap.
Citizens following this policy must therefore wait for further progress announcements from the government, which are expected to be provided once the documents and various work plans are complete and finalized.
