  • Rachanak Srinork petitions NACC over TH-AI Passport project
  • Targets DE Minister Chaiyanok Chidchob and related officials
  • Highlights active users below 10 percent ahead of censure debate

At 9:00 AM on September 1, 2026, Ms. Rachanak Srinork, a party-list MP from the People's Party, accompanied by Mr. Teerachat Kotrakul, an advisor to the House Committee on Budget Monitoring, submitted formal evidence to the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC). The filing requests an official investigation into the transparency of the TH-AI Passport project.

The petition names several key figures under scrutiny, including Mr. Chaiyanok Chidchob, the Minister of Digital Economy and Society, the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry, the Secretary-General of the Office of the National Digital Economy and Society Commission, the chairperson of the TOR drafting committee, and relevant representatives from private firms.

"We still have a basketful of data left, preparing for a no-confidence debate, and criticizing the push for phase 2 when active users are below 10 percent."

Following the document submission, Ms. Rachanak revealed that her team holds a substantial amount of additional evidence, which will be utilized during the upcoming no-confidence debate. She also criticized the push to advance the project into its second phase despite active user statistics remaining below 10 percent, arguing that the initiative fails to genuinely serve the public interest.

Government digital infrastructure projects frequently face scrutiny regarding cost-effectiveness and citizen adoption rates. When active user metrics fall significantly short of expectations, it often raises critical questions about procurement transparency and initial project design standards.
