Minister of Agriculture orders urgent resolution of black chin tilapia problem

Bangkok, 'Lt. Col. Thammanat' ordered relevant agencies to study the chromosomes of male black-chinned tilapia to prevent further breeding, but initially ordered them to be hunted and killed. Agriculture and Cooperatives Minister Thammanat Prompao said he has ordered relevant agencies to study the chromosomes of the male black-chinned tilapia to prevent it from breeding. Initially, he ordered them to be hunted and killed, while investigating where they came from. However, he would not blame any companies for importing them because he is still investigating the information. He has also set a budget to buy the black-chinned tilapia to use as fertilizer. The fertilizer project has been withdrawn, but there is a new project to help farmers. Lt. Col. Thammanat also mentioned the matter of educational qualifications, emphasizing that everything had been explained. He personally used his bachelor's degree to apply to be an MP in 2023. He did not know that Mr. Sukhumpong Chanuwong, Vice President of the Thai Lawye rs Association, who was his thesis advisor, was the same person as the teacher of Dr. Kesakamon Pliansamai, the Senator who was questioned about her educational qualifications, and that it was not his duty to discuss this matter.
