Imagine that this article was about a lithium deposit found in the USA.
Would you find it productive / relevant for me to say
- Ah! That same country that is going back to the 50s in women's rights?
- Ah! That some country that had the most gold medals in the last olympic?
I'm guessing not. Why should it be acceptable to say something completely unrelated about Thailand? It's even worse if it's something negative.
It would be fine if it were something relevant about Thailand (their mining legislation, for example)

Second it was told most likely because it is the newest news about Thailand https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/19/world/asia/thailand-sentence-royalty-defamation.html https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/19/world/asia/thailand-sente... Perhaps it has even become a defining feature of Thailand.
