Bangkok, 7th March 2019 (NNT) The Thai government’s Public Relations Department (PRD) and related organizations have started a campaign against fake news and will ensure only accurate information is disseminated by the PRD.

 

Mrs. Pichaya Muangnao, deputy director general of the PRD, presided over the launch of the campaign against fake news, at the Centara Hotel on Chaengwattana Road, in collaboration with the Thai Media Fund, Technology Crime Suppression Division, MCOT, Thai Public Broadcasting Service, artist associations and youths, based in 4 regions, who were linked live from their provinces into the event.

 

The Deputy Director General of the PRD said fake news is a global problem. The problem must be addressed firmly. The government has signed a declaration of collaboration in Singapore, to reduce the negative effects of fake. The declaration strengthens cooperation between the media, the public and government to make the internet safe and a good source of accurate information for the people of ASEAN.

 

After the opening ceremony, all participants waved “stop fake news” flags.

 

Members of the public can check the reliability of news by checking with the PRD website, Facebook and Line:@realnewsthailand.

This is fake news.

Who makes the decision what is fake? ????

Better headline would be "PRD allows only positive news where it concerns them" ????

 

There is obviously concerns worldwide by the "elites" that people are no longer buying into their $ull$hit and looking for the truth ????

They've already eliminated possibility of real news, so logical next step is fake news, unless it is coming from ministry

Also known as the "mommy, that man said mean things about me" campaign

The beautiful thing about being in charge is that you can label any dissent as "Fake News" and then censor it.
