Each person is entitled to a one-off payment of 3,000 baht, which will be paid into thebank account recorded on the Ministry's database.

 

HOW DOES AN INFANT HAVE A BANK ACCOUNT?

Why would the ministry have a database of people's personal bank accounts?

So they can get 3,000 baht.

People open a bank account with their Thai ID.

The US government sent me my Covid-19 stimulus money into my bank account from me filing my US Tax Return.

It's so comforting that the evils of vote buying with populist policies dabbled in by Thaksin are a thing of the past.

 

Go junta go .

    Qualifying Thais are issued a special Welfare Card, similar and in addition to their Thai ID Card, which can then be used as DEBIT CARDS in Thai ATMs. Apparently the funds are only available for a limited time which may answer the question as to why people rush the ATMs a few days after the funds are released.
