Thailand’s Election Commission (EC) has launched a high-security logistics operation to transport millions of ballots for the upcoming general election and constitutional referendum. Partnering with the Royal Thai Police and Thailand Post, the commission has established a 24-hour coordination center to monitor shipments via real-time tracking, ensuring transparency and traceability for both domestic and overseas voting.

EC Secretary-General confirmed that over 2.4 million people have registered for advance voting, while approximately 1.6 million are set to participate in the referendum. A total of 168.3 million ballots have been printed for the Feb. 8 vote, with international shipments to 95 cities across 67 countries scheduled to begin Saturday morning.
