According to a report by Matichon Online published on August 19, 2026, newly elected Member of Parliament Peerapat Launpipat has officially declared his assets to the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC). The disclosure reveals that the MP holds a total net worth of 62 million baht.
Mr. Peerapat reported an annual income of approximately 7.7 million baht. This revenue is derived from diverse business interests, including land rental income on Koh Lipe, the operation of a KFC franchise, and shrimp farming activities.
For residents and visitors, such disclosures provide transparency regarding the financial backgrounds of public officials. While the report outlines the sources of his income, it serves primarily as a matter of public record regarding the financial status of a legislative representative.
