Network seeks probe into charity football fundraising

Must read

The football competition among celebrities like YouTubers, artists, actors, singers and boxers for a cash prize of 1 million baht kicked off in January. The final match will be held at Pathum Thani’s BG Stadium on Saturday. 

The organisers, including an executive of advertising firm Idol Games Co Ltd and the founder of an unidentified sports Facebook page, have said that all earnings from ticket sales will be donated to six foundations.

However, the network wants the Interior Ministry to check:

  • Which foundations or organisations will receive donations to ensure transparency
  • Whether the organisers have complied with laws related to donations
  • Whether the organisers are allowed to call for donations under the 1944 Fundraising Control Act
