Debutant MP Wiroj Lakkhanaadisorn from the opposition Move Forward Party has campaigned relentlessly for full disclosure of the government’s vaccine procurement contracts, insisting that transparency is vital in the fight against COVID-19.

 

The National Vaccine Institute recently responded by sending Move Forward a copy of a contract for the purchase of 26 million AstraZeneca doses. However, most of the document is blacked out, Wiroj revealed on Monday (July 12).

National security if public sees the Australian AZ contracts.   That doesn't pass my smell test.   Maybe the virus is an alien decency test on us humans.

Why you have to purchase something that you make locally? Is he talking about paying royalty?

Transparency in a smokescreen?

Of course they have to purchase it. It's made locally, but not by the Thai government.

There is a strategy?
