He said the truck’s cargo of 10 tonnes of sausages was stolen and that he personally will have to cover the cost, which far exceeds the amount covered by insurance.

One more thing for Thailand to sort out..how the heck can he the employee be held responsible for theft of the produce while lying injured in hospital  !!!

I wish there was a version of "splitting image" in Thailand there is so much material and they wouldn't have to make it up 

There was a Thai comedy show in the late 90's early 2000's called  "rutsaapar hoon shurt"  or Puppet Parliament   obviously something simular these days would lead to the TV channel being shutdown PDQ !!!

Yes, it was attached to a UPS

Ahh well you didn't mention that.. but here is another thing to  look for...  ants

Thai ants they love electrical stuff for some reason.

I am unsure what caused the loss of power / fluctuations

Where I live (Chonburi)  its an almost certainty every time  it rains there will be  grid/mains power issues   maybe look at a UPS to protect your equipment.

Yes, It’s in the air-con office - It rained here yesterday, which made me think was it maybe dampness

If it rained then maybe there where power issues  fluctuating voltage  that caused the problems ,  possibly corrupted the OS  ?

Has there been an act or order duly signed by the appropriate authorities?

They declared "a state of emergency"  that's the only act that's needed for any carte blanche actions the "authorites" decide.

Or are these positions handed down from on high?

I believe the previous mayor  Ittipon Konplume was elected  but after the 2014 coup  local elections where suspended so an appointed person replaced him.

He also commented on filthy people depositing trash in canals that go into the sea. He could seal them off but that won't solve matters in the long term - it is the people throwing stuff in the canals that is the problem.

Wow !  could they possibly be filthy Thais instead of the  much maligned filthy foreigners ?

General Election??

Even if you could call it an election (how many months to release the results)

those who voted for other parties  where  stabbed in the back when those same parties decided to form a coalition with the military !

And cue the stampeding hoards at the supermarkets , tomorrows hand wringing that people are being irresponsible pushing and shoving to get their hands on  the "banned substance"  so we might have to reintroduce the ban !! ????

Both are inconsistent with the 'rear end shunt' version that the lady claimed it was.

Knowing very well the area where this happened  and knowing that the Nissan NV lived in the

"Eua Arthorn Village"   I'll speculate  that the NV driver came out of the village entrance onto the main Sukhumvit  road  wanting to make a U-turn which is just a couple of hundred meters further south,

lots of Thais for some reason will not "merge" into traffic  they wait till they think the coast is clear and then dash straight across/slightly diagonally many lanes to the far right lane at a slow speed..the far right lane is often occupied by speeding minibuses  there is a slight left hand curve in that part of the road and often  vehicles blocking the  left hand lane view (minibus drivers view) as they turn into the village..so  both drivers could have easily not seen each other till it was too late.
