Govt announces lottery ticket sales via Pao Tang mobile app

The Government Lottery Office (GLO) will begin offering tickets through the Pao Tang mobile application at 80 baht each in a bid to keep the price of lottery tickets down, the Minister of the Prime Minister's Office Anucha Nakasai announced on Sunday.

The remarks were made as a follow-up to the government's crackdown on the online lottery vendors "Blue Dragon Lottery" and "Kong Salak Plus", which were suspected of selling tickets at inflated prices.

Mr Anucha, who leads a government committee investigating the overpricing of lottery tickets, said people who want to buy tickets for the June 16 draw will be able to buy tickets through the app soon. He did not say when the tickets for that draw will be offered.
