Today (20 October 2026) at 1:20 PM, Mr. Anutin Charnvirakul, Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, answered questions regarding the case of wearing a new, brightly colored, eye-catching watch. Reporters asked when he got this watch, and the Prime Minister raised his wrist wearing the watch to look at it before answering, “Oh, this, I went to buy it at a Swatch store, it looks nice.” When asked further about when he bought it, the Prime Minister, along with Mr. Suchart Chomklin, Minister of Natural Resources and Environment, Mr. Paradorn Prissananantakul, Minister attached to the Prime Minister's Office, and Miss Taisulee Traisorakul, Secretary-General to the Prime Minister, who were standing behind him, all laughed together.
When it was pointed out that the Prime Minister had not yet peeled off the protective plastic film from the watch, the Prime Minister showed a slight look of surprise, raised his wrist to look, and exclaimed “Where?” before using his hand to peel off the protective sticker and saying “Oh right,” handing the plastic sheet to reporters to throw away, and immediately walking away from the interview circle.
