  1. Car crashes into an electric pole and the whole car is completely destroyed. This accident occurred on Ratchaphruek Road, Nonthaburi Province

     

    04:50 on June 6, 2024, the Ruamkatanyu Rescue Foundation received a call that a car crashed into a light pole and was blocking the right lane. Rescuers found the car in ruins and an electric pole broken in half. The driver was not at the scene, but staff at the local petrol station told responders that the driver had spoken to them and said he was just slightly hurt and was walking home.

  2. 3 June, a reporter for Khaosod newspaper jumped into a ditch to rescue a woman, whose car had flipped over and fell into the water, next to Thahan Si Kan Flats, Techa Tungkha Road, Si Kan Subdistrict, Don Mueang.

     

    The white Mitsubishi Attrage sedan was upside down, with the driver trapped inside. The reporter who was with his wife, witnessed the accident, so stopped his car and jumped in to help the driver, and was able to open the car door and pull the lady to safety, before emergency services arrived.

     

    The lady, who was returning home from the local market, said she “felt a sudden sensation and then the car flipped over”.

     

    After the incident, the driver who was only slightly injured, did not require hospital treatment.

    June 2 at 23.45, Phet Samut Center Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Department were informed that there was a house fire and 1 resident was trapped inside the building.
     

    The incident occurred at Soi Chum Sai Telephone Soi 1, Mae Klong Subdistrict, Mueang District, Samut Songkhram.

     

    At the scene the house was found to be totally engulfed in fire, so emergency responders required additional support from nearby agencies and various volunteer foundation rescue teams.

     

    Responders were able to prevent the fire from spreading but took 3 hours to bring the fire under control. On searching the scene a body was found in the burnt remains of the building. The cause of the fire is under investigation by forensic teams.

  4. Hi Everyone. I'm flying out from London on Thursday night, arrive Bangkok about 3pm Thailand time on Friday afternoon. I would love to come and say 'Hello' to as many of you as I can. I intend to retire to Thailand permanantly next year so the more ex pat drinking buddies I can get to know the better. Can anyone recommend a hotel near the Sin Club? Been many times to Pattaya but my knowledge of Bangkok is limited. Grateful in advance.
