Police Deputy Spokesman Warns Against Creating and Sharing 'Trash Content' or Face Legal Action! Reveals case involving alleged use of substances during Songkran festival, no victims have filed complaints yet

On April 27, 2025, at the Royal Thai Police headquarters, Police Major General Sirivat Deepho, Deputy Spokesman of the Royal Thai Police, stated that following an incident where an influencer created content by allegedly mixing a powder claiming to be an anesthetic drug with water and applying it to people's faces during the Songkran festival, such behavior, if true, would not only cause public annoyance but could potentially harm the public. He issued a warning to YouTubers, influencers, online content creators, and the general public to prevent copycat behavior and mitigate potential harm:

1. Cease creating prank content that causes public distress – Actions that cause annoyance, threats, or public embarrassment violate the Criminal Code Section 397, with penalties up to 5,000 baht. If hazardous materials or chemicals are used causing bodily or psychological harm, charges of assault under Section 295 apply, carrying imprisonment up to 2 years or fines up to 40,000 baht, or both.

2. Avoid spreading false information for views or publicity – Posting false videos or messages likely to cause public panic may violate the Computer Crime Act B.E. 2550 (and amendments), Section 14(2), with penalties of imprisonment up to 5 years or fines up to 100,000 baht, or both.

3. Stop sharing or supporting channels producing trash content – To reduce risks of misinformation spread and prevent becoming a tool to increase viewership for those creating social problems, which could lead to illegal copycat behavior.

Police Major General Sirivat further stated that investigations at Phra Pradaeng Police Station in Samut Prakan, where the influencer was conducting Songkran activities, found no reports of victims being harmed or affected by the powder application. However, if any member of the public suffers harm or impact from being sprayed with such substance, they have the right to pursue legal action against the perpetrator.

If citizens witness criminal acts, creation of content causing public distress, or suffer harm from pranks, they can report tips or emergencies to the emergency hotline 191 or the Royal Thai Police hotline 1599 available 24 hours.

Singer Win Wekin Simawarom, who previously faced online jokes comparing him to other celebrities, is taking a hiatus from his music career to pursue acting. He has landed a role as a bar host in the TV series 'Ging Thong Slab Sai (Season 2)' on MV TV, directed by acclaimed producer Getsinee Bunma—a character that couldn't be further from his real life.

Win admits the role is quite challenging as it requires him to entertain and charm older women, something he's never experienced. He expressed both nervousness and excitement about the opportunity, saying: "It's a great chance to take on this role because in real life I would never get to experience this profession. Getting to try this character feels thrilling and fun. I've learned how people in this profession think and work. When I first acted with the senior actors, I felt a bit shy, but everyone on set is friendly and we all have a great time together."

Meanwhile, Win has previously released two singles: 'Mental Burden' and 'Not Number One.' He hints that a new single is coming very soon. Fans who want to see Win's charm in his bar host role can tune in to 'Ging Thong Slab Sai (Season 2)' on MV TV.

On April 27, 2569 at 11:30 AM, the Senate cafeteria on the second floor opened for self-service dining for the first time, featuring three food vendors offering noodle soup with pork and lime, red pork rice, desserts, and Muslim food (chicken rice box at 70 baht per box). Beverages remain complimentary, and payment is processed through digital scanning only.

Senate member Chaiyong Maneerungsukul reported adequate food variety with rice, noodles, and desserts available, though noted the lack of fresh fruit. First Senate Vice-President Grienggai Srirak also participated, purchasing red pork rice and crispy pork, buying five boxes for visiting guests.

Greienggai stated the atmosphere is lively and represents a shift amid the national crisis caused by Middle Eastern energy issues, with the Senate contributing to budget conservation. He explained this is the first day of trials with 3-4 vendors, with plans to survey members' preferences for menu adjustments in coming days. Regarding savings, he estimated costs dropping from 800 baht per person daily to approximately 200 baht or less, with his own meal costing 60 baht.

When asked about dissenting members, Grienggai noted that understanding must be developed through various committees, with most voting in favor of this measure as a temporary crisis response. He stated that if conditions normalize, free meals could return to their previous format. Some members expressed willingness to bring food from home if vendors aren't available. The rotating vendor system will continue until normal conditions resume, with potential expansion to include Parliament secretariat staff purchases if needed.

What started as a joke about unemployment turned into an unexpected business opportunity when Nick Greenawalt from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, had a brilliant idea to transform a tiny space like a toilet into a real revenue-generating advertising area.

Initially, he simply posted humorous content about his unemployment status, but it attracted overwhelming attention. This led him to seriously pursue selling advertising space on his bathroom toilet. In his personal profile, he jokingly wrote: "CEO of unemployment, trying to make $1,000,000 from my toilet," a tagline that perfectly captured the trend and gave the concept a unique identity.

Shortly afterward, numerous major brands began booking space. Clorox, Pine-Sol, and MiraLAX featured their logos and messages on the toilet, while grooming brand Dr Squatch participated with a cheeky comment: "All I hear is 'King Dr Squatch.'" Cryptocurrency company MoonPay also joined the viral moment, posting: "24 hours ago, we advertised MoonPay on a stranger's toilet bowl."

The results were remarkable. MoonPay revealed that the campaign generated 1 million Instagram video views, increased app downloads, and gained over 1,000 new followers—all while spending just 0.05% of their annual marketing budget. The campaign cost was remarkably low despite its exceptional reach.

On social media, his videos went viral rapidly, with some clips receiving over 40 million views and others nearly 13 million. Many viewers praised the creative thinking and saw it as new inspiration for the content and marketing world. Many comments noted that this idea represents not just novelty, but genuine out-of-the-box thinking that can turn into real career opportunities. Some even view him as a representative of a new generation of creators who can transform ordinary things into remarkable business ventures.
