A House of Representatives poll revealed significant public opposition to proposed changes in funding sources for four key organizations: Thai PBS, ThaiHealth, the Sports Authority of Thailand (SAT), and the Elderly People Act.
The Bhumjaithai Party's bills aim to shift these organizations' funding from legally earmarked 'sin taxes' to the annual government budget.
Across all four entities, a clear majority of respondents consistently opposed the proposed amendments, with opposition rates ranging from approximately 68% for Thai PBS and SAT to nearly 90% for ThaiHealth.
