Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha denied speculation that the young footballers rescued from Tham Luang cave were tranquilized.
He confirmed that the 'Wild Boars' soccer team members were given anxiolytics to reduce anxiety during their high-risk journey out.
PM Prayut praised the successful international rescue mission, highlighting pride in defying advice against diving the team out of the cave.
Application for ‘Nene Royal’ trademark withdrawn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A third-party application for "NENE" and "NENE ROYAL" trademarks was officially withdrawn, resolving a high-profile dispute over the Thai pop artist's name.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.
