Thailand National Security Council discusses Middle East and cyber threats

The Secretary-General of the National Security Council (NSC), Air Chief Marshal Chaipruek Duangpraphat, chaired a meeting with government officials and academics to develop contingency plans regarding instability in the Middle East and potential cyber threats.

The meeting included representatives from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the National Cyber Security Agency, the Office of the Attorney General, and various military branches. Academic experts from several universities also provided observations on the global volatility and security risks.

Air Chief Marshal Chaipruek noted that while a National Preparedness Plan already exists, the current global situation requires more specific, detailed guidelines for individual agencies. Once the operational guidelines are finalized, the NSC plans to convene high-level commanders to review the strategy.
