People told you to beware of fake news. Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha in particular has been so concerned he seems to have made a campaign against fraudulent or misleading information his personal crusade.
The PM has just made it clear that he did not say people could go and fill their tanks with water if they think petrol is too expensive. The statement sounds incredible anyway. What kind of man in a position of power would make such a callous remark?
For the record, what Gen Prayut did say earlier was that rubber growers could try to sell their produce on Mars if they want to fetch higher prices.
