Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul rejected accusations that the government's solar subsidy scheme favors large corporations.
He accused some media outlets of fabricating information and publishing reports "at someone's request," specifically highlighting major firms while overlooking smaller businesses.
Anutin clarified that lists published by the media were merely vendor registries for eligibility, not confirmation of contract awards.
He urged media professionalism and accurate reporting, emphasizing the government's commitment to fairness and impartiality in the scheme's criteria.
