Secretary-General of the NACC Says Allegations Involving Deputy Minister in Local Exam Fraud May Be Overstated

The Secretary-General of the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) visited the Government House to meet with Deputy Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul to address the local exam fraud issue, stating it may not be as serious as rumored after being asked about reports involving a Deputy Minister in the corrupt network.


23 June 2026 GMT+7 Mr. Phumvisan Kasemsuk, Secretary-General of the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC), arrived at the Government House to meet the Prime Minister regarding the local exam fraud case. Before the meeting, he said he wanted to see the Prime Minister first because he was unsure how responsibilities would be divided.

When asked who the current information connects to, Mr. Phumvisan said the NACC office had received some complaints but declined to reveal details, saying he needed to consult the Prime Minister first. Asked if the case would be classified as a special case, he said he did not know yet and emphasized he wanted to receive directives from the Prime Minister first.

Reporters asked further, how many civil servants were involved. Mr. Phumvisan admitted there was a certain number, and that fact-finding was currently underway. When pressed whether a Deputy Minister was involved as rumors suggested, the NACC Secretary-General said it was unlikely to that extent. .
