Therefore, Mr. Pichit questioned why the government was so eager to pass the Game and Entertainment Complex Bill despite the fact that it wasn’t even mentioned in Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra’s plan speech to parliament.

The development of pleasures is equivalent to [the government’s promise ] to strengthen the people’s quality of life and well-being, he said, which is the opposite of the government’s commitment to improve the people’s quality of life and well-being.

People’s Party ( PP ) MP Parit Wacharasindhu said the government’s rush to pass the bill despite warnings from opponents sounded like it had a “hidden agenda.”

The bill’s specifics, according to Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra, were never written in stone because parliament had the ultimate state.
