00:00The NSRC, which was established in October 2022, has played a role as a non-refundable center for fraud cases in Thailand, especially in the case of stolen funds.
00:17My advice is as follows.
00:20The role of the NSRC is seen to be more significant and is in line with several neighboring countries that also have similar centers such as Anti-Online Center AOC in Bangkok, Thailand and Anti-Scam Center in Singapore.
00:36For your information, the NSRC is a center that is jointly managed by the National Financial Crime Prevention Center, NFCC, PDRM and Bank of Malaysia.
00:49As of 31 December 2024, the NSRC has handled a total of 161,863 calls from thieves in Thailand, callers seeking information and so on.
01:07A total of 72,523 bank accounts have been identified or earmarked as involved in suspicious transactions involving fraud involving a total value of RM50,875,415.26.
01:27For the NSRC, when do you think the new structure will be implemented?
01:57I think the new structure will be very interesting, just like what has been shown in the movies, where there are call takers and so on.
02:11God willing, we will move towards that direction.
02:14Is there a time frame for when this structure will be implemented?
02:17I think in the near future, maybe in half a year, the Prime Minister's office will have to be built from scratch.
02:29Can you elaborate on the number of offices?
02:33If I'm not mistaken, there are 105 offices.
02:44And we will operate 24x7.
02:48Right now, it's only 12 hours.
02:50So, this new structure will be under the purview of the Commercial Crime Unit?
02:58Yes, as a lead agency.
03:00It still needs other cooperation, but we will take the lead.
03:07It will be led by a senior officer, right?
03:14Our recommendation is a senior assistant commissioner.
