He was pleased as locals praised the "Thai Help Thai Plus" program for easing expenses and increasing sales for local vendors. He stated that they are ready to continue any effective assistance and are seeking additional economic stimulus measures.
On 16 August 2026, reporters reported that Prime Minister and Minister of Interior Anutin Charnvirakul, also leader of the Bhumjaithai Party, spent his holiday visiting Buriram province, where he met with Newin Chidchob, Executive Chairman of Buriram United Football Club, and stopped to eat simple street food with Ms. Traisulee Traisoranakul, Secretary to the Prime Minister.
During the visit, Anutin took the opportunity to ask vendors and locals about their business and livelihood, and they responded positively, saying they appreciated the "Thai Help Thai Plus 60:40" program, which helps with expenses and enables local vendors to sell more, increasing money circulation in the community. The Prime Minister smiled and emphasized that anything that truly helps the people will be continued, and he will pursue additional economic stimulus measures. The holiday was spent simply—eating, talking, and listening to locals. The atmosphere was lively, with people gradually coming to take photos with Anutin and Newin.
