A 78-year-old woman with a disability card visited a bank early in the morning to withdraw 10,000 baht, but found that the money had not been deposited into her account, expressing her disappointment and requesting an investigation into the issue.
On September 25, 2024, in Buriram Province, reports indicate that vulnerable groups, including disabled individuals and welfare cardholders with ID numbers ending in 0, were lined up at the Bank for Agriculture and Agricultural Cooperatives to withdraw their funds. Many had come early to withdraw the 10,000 baht for household expenses, agricultural needs, and stocking up on food and supplies.
One individual, 70-year-old Boonsart Kantee, shared his happiness about receiving the 10,000 baht, which he planned to use for buying fertilizers. He indicated that without this government assistance, he would have to borrow money, increasing his debt burden and expressed gratitude towards the government for the support.
In contrast, 78-year-old Thunilnon, who has a disability and holds a welfare card, waited since 7 a.m. to check her account but was disheartened to learn that her funds were not available. She expressed her sadness and urged the government to investigate why her money had not been deposited as promised.
