|APRIL 22, 2025
The Ministry of Public Health has defended spending 900 million baht on setting up the Thailand Pavilion at the World Expo 2025 in Osaka, saying the exhibition has received much praise and criticism has been treated as constructive feedback.
Dr Opas Karnkawinpong, permanent secretary of the Ministry of Public Health, yesterday led a press conference to clarify public speculation over the worthiness of the 900-million-baht budget the ministry used to create the Thailand Pavilion exhibition at the World Expo in Osaka, running from April 13 until Oct 13.
According to him, the cabinet this year assigned the Public Health Ministry to oversee the organisation of the Thailand Pavilion, with a budget of 900 million baht.
