His Majesty the King has granted royal sponsorship to Warrant Officer Saman Kunan, a retired Navy SEAL who died during the mission to rescue 13 individuals trapped in Tham Luang cave, honoring his ultimate sacrifice.
Rear Admiral Apakorn Yukongkaew, commander of the Navy SEAL unit, affirmed the team's unwavering commitment to completing the rescue operation, ensuring that Warrant Officer Saman's loss was not in vain and maintaining morale despite the tragedy.
Application for ‘Nene Royal’ trademark withdrawn
Yesterday 18:24Key points summarised by AI
A third-party application for "NENE" and "NENE ROYAL" trademarks was officially withdrawn, resolving a high-profile dispute over the Thai pop artist's name.
Black Lotus Global LLC, managing Nene Royal's rights, has legitimate trademark applications for various categories under fast-track processing, with final approval anticipated by February 2027.
The Department of Intellectual Property (DIP) monitors international trademark filings to protect Thai creators and advises early registration to prevent unauthorized third-party claims, noting a "NENE" trademark already registered in South Korea.
