Takorn Tantasith, secretary-general of the NBTC, said both organisations already banned the broadcast of illegal ad content for dietary supplements and cosmetics on 54 TV channels, 80 websites and one radio station. The NBTC held special discussions with the FDA and all broadcast operators to resolve the problem of illegal ad content on TV and social media. The FDA assigned six officers to move to the NBTC's headquarters to monitor improper or illegal content. However, illegal dietary supplements and cosmetics have still been widely broadcast on websites, with 50 URLs found having banned content on this subject matter between May 21-25. He said the working team will now focus more on prohibited content on websites and all 6,000 community radio stations across the country.
