From the article "SOFA robots have become something of a national treasure in Thailand."

Strange, I live in Thailand and have been following the news closely ever since the pandemic hit but I have not heard of this or seen it mentioned in Thai media. Perhaps a bit of hyperbole to call it a national treasure.

It has been mentioned in Thai mainstream media, but not really a top headline[1][2][3][4], but "national treasure" definitely sounds like a hyperbole.
