Thai media just issued a correction after clipping CK Cheong's quote so badly it looked like he was anti-national.
Original clickbait: "Thailand should break rules and sacrifice everything for Elon Musk"
Actual context: If Thailand adjusts regulations to be competitive enough, we could attract Tesla's factory—jobs, capital inflows, industrial upgrade.
Classic rage bait. Media farms engagement by cutting quotes short, community loses nuance. This is why you verify sources before dunking on someone.
Lesson: Don't let headlines hijack your brain. Thailand's EV policy race is real, but framing matters.
