Deputy Prime Minister Pipat Ratchakitprakarn addressed corruption allegations on May 15, 2569 at PAT Arena, responding to a Zero Corruption survey by the private sector-government joint committee that identified the Port Authority and Highway Department among the top ten most corrupt state agencies, with the Land Transport Department also appearing in the top ten for bribery solicitation rates. Pipat stated he would invite heads of the implicated agencies to clarify whether the allegations have merit, and would establish an investigative committee if evidence supports the claims. He instructed Transport Permanent Secretary Chayathorn Promsar to verify the survey's credibility, methodology, sample size, and case numbers before deciding whether to investigate only these three agencies or expand the probe department-wide.

Deputy Transport Minister Sompetch Bunyamani revealed that the Port Authority ranked second among the ten agencies with average bribes of 100,000 baht, and committed to examining the survey's detailed methodology and reliability. He confirmed the Transport Ministry's consistent emphasis on transparency and good governance, noting the ministry has internal controls while welcoming public and private sector oversight to strengthen government accountability.

Port Authority Director-General Krichpetch Chaichuay stated the agency was unaware which service division the allegations involved, given over 200,000 annual transactions and eight affiliated associations. He noted that 80-90 percent of port services have been digitized over the past 2-3 years, with vessel registration serving as a nationwide pilot program. The Port Authority plans to request detailed information from the joint committee to identify and address specific problem areas.

The anime community is devastated by the loss of legendary Japanese voice actress Yamazaki Wakana, the iconic voice of Ran Mouri from Detective Conan, who passed away peacefully at age 61. Her agency confirmed her death on April 18, with the official announcement made on May 15. Yamazaki Wakana became a household name among anime fans for her decades-long portrayal of Ran Mouri, the female lead in Detective Conan, establishing herself as one of the most distinctive voices in Japanese animation.

In February, she had announced through her agency that she was receiving medical treatment and would temporarily suspend all work on doctor's orders. Just two months later, the sad news of her passing shocked fans worldwide, who expressed their condolences through social media. Her agency has announced that Akemi Okamura, known for voicing Nami in One Piece, will take over the role of Ran Mouri going forward.

The official anime website stated that the team will inherit the spirit and dedication Yamazaki Wakana brought to the character and works, while thanking fans for their continued support and asking them to pray for her peaceful rest. Though she has passed, her voice will remain in the latest Detective Conan Movie 29: The Heavenly Angel Mystery (2026), currently in theaters, marking her final performance as Ran Mouri.

Born on March 21, 1965, Yamazaki Wakana had an extensive career beyond her iconic role as Ran Mouri. She voiced Ayane in the Dead or Alive game series and briefly portrayed Nami in the One Piece anime during episodes 70-78. She will be remembered as an important figure in Japanese voice acting whose contributions to anime will endure in the hearts of fans forever.

On May 15, 2026, Deputy Education Minister Akkanat Kankittinun, accompanied by Deputy Permanent Secretary Linthiphon Vrinvatchajarojn, staff member Parami Waijongjaroen, and Dr. Keattip Suphavanic, conducted a surprise inspection at Wat Suan Dok School in Chiang Mai to assess the quality of student lunches and drinking water systems. The visit aimed to identify and solve real problems during the new school term.

Deputy Minister Akkanat reported that the school's meal program complied with nutritional guidelines, containing appropriate portions of grains, protein, eggs, oils, fruits, and milk according to Thai school lunch standards. However, he recommended increasing vegetable options to provide more complete nutrition for growing children and to assure parents of quality care. He acknowledged that each school faces different circumstances, but emphasized that quality and adequate quantity are essential priorities.

Beyond meal inspection, Akkanat also reviewed the drinking water system and discovered the school had not yet processed the water purifier equipment procurement, prompting immediate corrective action. He announced plans to conduct similar surprise visits at multiple schools during the semester opening to identify genuine problems and provide support. "This inspection is not about catching mistakes, but about identifying issues and removing obstacles that schools face," Akkanat stated. "Whatever support the ministry can provide, we will do immediately to ensure schools are safe and prepared environments for all students."
