Korn Chatikavanich revealed that after checking fuel stations in southern Thailand, queues remain long and many stations have received only half their usual oil supply. He pointed out that if this continues, the public will still suffer and questioned why oil has not yet been released from storage.
On 23 March 2026, Korn Chatikavanich, deputy leader of the Democrat Party, posted on his personal Facebook stating that after checking with fuel stations in the south this morning, the situation "remains unresolved". Queues are long, ticket systems are being used, and many stations are receiving only half the usual amount of oil from storage (PTT stations).
As long as oil does not reach the stations in sufficient quantities, the public will continue to suffer and the queues will not ease. The problem that must be solved is why oil has not yet been released from storage. He also asked his Facebook friends to comment and share photos of fuel stations this morning for review.
