Thai PBS Verify reviewed a statement made by Anutin Charnvirakul, leader of Bhumjaithai Party, during his policy announcement for the 2026 general election, regarding the “Khon La Khrueng Plus [Half-Half Plus]” government co-payment scheme. He said, “I still owe the people 2,400 baht, and I ask for the chance to return and settle that debt.” The review found that this wording could cause confusion and misunderstanding about the policy. The truth is that the 2026 budget already exists under the legal framework; it is not a personal debt but part of the national budget.
