Investigation Requested into Pathum Thani Health Center Director Over Gambling Allegations
A prominent social media page has called for an official investigation into the director of a sub-district health promotion hospital in Pathum Thani following allegations of gambling on the premises.
According to a report by Matichon Online published on September 20, 2026, a well-known social media page has formally requested an investigation into the director of the Khlong Nueng Sub-district Health Promotion Hospital (Ror Por Sor Tor) in Pathum Thani province. The request follows claims made by subordinates alleging that the director invited staff to participate in card games within the hospital's Outpatient Department (OPD) room.
For residents and expatriates in the area, this report highlights potential concerns regarding the professional conduct and administrative integrity of local public health facilities. The use of medical premises for non-official activities, particularly gambling, raises questions about the appropriate management of public resources and the maintenance of a professional environment for patient care.
As of now, these allegations remain unverified. The identity of the subordinates and the specific timeline of the alleged incidents have not been publicly detailed beyond the initial social media report. It remains to be confirmed whether local health authorities or provincial officials will launch a formal inquiry into the matter. Until an official investigation is concluded, the director’s involvement in the alleged activities remains an unproven claim.
