Sontiya Files Complaint Against Weather Page Over Flood Warnings

On September 25, 2026, political activist Sontiya Sawasdee submitted a formal complaint to the Technology Crime Suppression Division (TCSD) targeting the Facebook page 'Tee Lom Fah Arkad' (Weather Tee). Sontiya alleges that the page’s recent posts regarding flood warnings have caused unnecessary public panic and alarm.

According to reports from Matichon Online, Sontiya claims that the information disseminated by the page regarding potential flooding was misleading or alarmist, potentially violating laws related to the dissemination of information that could cause public disorder. The complaint seeks an investigation into whether the page’s content constitutes a breach of the Computer Crime Act.

For residents and travelers in Thailand, this development highlights the ongoing tension between independent information sources and official government communication channels during the monsoon season. While weather updates are vital for safety, the legal scrutiny of such pages may impact how information is shared and interpreted by the public. It remains to be confirmed how the TCSD will proceed with the investigation and whether the page will be required to alter its reporting methods. Residents are advised to continue monitoring official government sources, such as the Thai Meteorological Department, for verified flood alerts and safety instructions.
