On November 13, 2026, Kanchana Sathaworn, the former president of the Gun Jom Palang Foundation, appeared before the Department of Special Investigation (DSI) to provide testimony as a witness. According to reports from Khaosod Online, the DSI summoned Kanchana to clarify her role, the foundation's management procedures, and the specific protocols regarding the withdrawal and handling of foundation funds during her tenure. The questioning session lasted over two hours. DSI officials have indicated that the investigation into the foundation's financial activities is ongoing, noting that the money trails involved are complex. To date, investigators have interviewed over ten witnesses, including individuals close to the foundation, representatives from companies that conducted transactions with the organization, and some donors. The DSI is currently in the process of gathering documentation and analyzing these financial records to determine if any legal violations occurred. For residents and observers, this investigation highlights ongoing scrutiny into the transparency and operational management of charitable organizations in Thailand. It remains to be confirmed what specific findings the DSI will uncover as they continue to process the evidence and whether any formal charges will be filed against any parties involved in the foundation's financial operations.
