One of the vendors from Loei said he has sold lottery tickets for 30 years and never had a quota. Meanwhile, other small retailers lodged a complaint urging the Anti-Corruption Division to review the GLO's decision to cut quotas to 50,000 sellers as well as look into a new digital lottery ticket project. Prime Minister's Office Minister Anucha Nakasai said selling lottery tickets online is preferable as customers pay the right price.
