The Thai government, led by Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul, has approved an emergency decree to borrow 400 billion Thai Baht (12.4 million USD) for a stimulus plan aimed at alleviating rising cost-of-living pressures and supporting measures to reduce energy costs. These economic challenges have been influenced by the conflict involving the United States, Israel, and Iran, which began in late February 2026. (Photo by Matt Hunt/NurPhoto)
