On April 28, 2025, lawyer Ananchai Chaidet filed a formal complaint with the Office of the Trade Competition Commission (OTCC) against major e-commerce platforms for enforced shipping selection practices deeply embedded in their systems. Many sellers report being unable to choose their own shipping providers and must use only platform-designated services, even when costs are higher, delivery is slower, or service quality is poor. The impact extends beyond merchants to consumers, who lose the right to select the best available services, while competing logistics providers are blocked from market entry. Despite the OTCC issuing clear control directives—particularly Section 3 prohibiting exclusionary, coercive, or restrictive practices leading to monopolies or reduced competition, and Section 4(2)(ข)1) explicitly classifying mandatory shipping services or non-adjustable default settings as prohibited behavior—platforms continue to operate unchanged. Such conduct may violate the Trade Competition Act B.E. 2560 under Sections 50, 54, 55, 57, and 58, carrying penalties of up to two years imprisonment, fines not exceeding 10% of annual revenue, or both. Some business operators report being squeezed by uncontrollable costs, while others lose business opportunities due to inability to select appropriate shipping for their goods. The OTCC previously issued E-Commerce guidelines for multi-sided digital platforms with immediate effect, referencing the Trade Competition Act to address unfair or anti-competitive practices. Guidelines cover pricing restrictions—including price fixing, unjustified discrimination, and excessive undisclosed fees—and behavioral restrictions including algorithm-based visibility discrimination and mandatory service usage. Violations carry both criminal and administrative penalties, with the OTCC emphasizing case-by-case evaluation.

Chachoengsao FC has formally lodged a complaint with the Football Association of Thailand requesting clarification on referee Songkran Bunmeekaert's performance during their April 26 Thai League 1 match against Muangthong United at Chachoengsao's Daikin Stadium, which ended 0-0.

The match between already-safe Chachoengsao and 14th-placed Muangthong United, who desperately needed points to avoid relegation, was overseen by FIFA Elite-level referee Songkran Bunmeekaert, but the club claims there were numerous questionable decisions throughout.

Chachoengsao has submitted a formal letter to the Football Association detailing six specific controversial incidents:

1. Minute 58:40 - Referee blew for a foul on Chachoengsao's Uge van Lingen before a potential goal-scoring opportunity, awarding Muangthong player No. 2 a yellow card despite it being an advantage situation for Chachoengsao.

2. Minute 63:30 - After Kittipong Sansnit was fouled by Tristong Do in the penalty area, the referee called a free kick rather than a penalty. The VAR intervened and reviewed the incident, but the referee ultimately decided it was outside the box, despite the contact clearly occurring within the penalty area.

3. Minute 74:10 - George Philippe deliberately kicked the ball away to waste time and should have received a second yellow card (resulting in a red), but the referee did not issue one.

4. Minute 91:38 - After Kittipong evaded Muangthong defenders and had a clear scoring opportunity, the referee called a foul and gave a yellow card to Muangthong's Songwut Kraikhrue, despite this being a clear advantage situation for Chachoengsao.

5. Minute 94:22 - Jonathan Bolinga appeared to step on Muangthong's player No. 2, but no yellow card was issued. Had the referee called this, Bolinga would have received a second yellow and been sent off.

6. Minute 96:34 - Kevin Ignazio made a pass that bypassed Muangthong's defensive line, but the referee called a foul despite it being an advantage situation for Chachoengsao.

Chachoengsao FC is requesting clarification from the Referees Committee and the Disciplinary and Conduct Committee to ensure the football community has correct understanding and that refereeing standards remain consistent across all matches.

The excitement continued when the host brought fortune teller Sian Rung to surprise them on stage, asking the two to drop their looks and wear aprons to showcase their Northeast cooking skills. Orm made delicious larb moo and served it to Ling, melting fans' hearts, while Ling prepared spicy som tam that made everyone in the hall drool!

They then brought the 'Trending' format to Paragon Hall, capturing Ling and Orm moments and diving into deep conversations about the future. But what made everyone go crazy was the question 'Who liked who first,' causing both girls to blush and squirm.

Young actor Feefy Premonnan Sripanich is preparing to become a father as his wife enters her fourth month of pregnancy with their first child. The actor recently visited the newsroom to update on his life as a family man and his entertainment industry plans. He also responded to criticism that he's a 'gold digger' following revelations that his wife's family are wealthy southern businesspeople.

When asked about his current life, Feefy explained: "After getting married, I committed to working harder. Now that my wife is pregnant, I'm working even more. I'm focusing on online content now, so you won't see me on television as much, but I'm more active on social media than usual."

Regarding entertainment work, he said: "I still enjoy acting, but being Muslim does limit the roles I can accept. For example, I cannot bow to anything other than God. I understand it's acting, but ultimately it's a real form of worship, so it makes me uncomfortable. Similarly, close physical contact with women is forbidden in Islam, so I avoid those scenes. This way, my wife can feel comfortable too."

Asked if these restrictions came before or after marriage, Feefy responded: "I was strict before marriage. I was born into a Muslim family, and while I lived a typical teenage life initially, as I studied more and gained deeper knowledge, my faith strengthened. I wanted to follow religious principles more closely. With these limitations, I'm uncertain what the future holds in entertainment, but I trust everything comes from God's will."

His most recent work was the drama 'Meung Kaew,' filmed nearly two years before it aired. Regarding future projects, he said: "I'm not turning my back on entertainment, but right now I'm focused on business. If an opportunity comes along that aligns with my values and a role I genuinely want to play, I'll reach out to casting directors. I still enjoy acting, just in roles where I can be comfortable and fully committed."

On his early marriage decision at age 25-26, Feefy explained: "It was surprising even for me, but I wanted to do things correctly according to Islamic principles, which don't include dating. We kept things within family circles, got to know each other superficially, and then married."

Regarding his role as a husband, he said: "I stand on principles of justice—I'm firm on what's right, but flexible where possible. My wife and I listen to each other and show mutual respect."

On how his life has changed, he reflected: "My role has changed dramatically. I have more responsibility now. I think about how much we've built, and we have someone to care for. Being married has made me more mature, thinking more about the future."
