You get what you get, not always what you deserve. For many of these girls, it is a dysfunctional environment from the very beginning, but there is only one person to blame for her losing her life.  Still, there are many good parents out there, and some girls run away for other reasons. Many of them simply do not fit anywhere, for reasons we cannot know, only speculate about. He picked up a girl from the street and took advantage of her situation.  I do not really understand why this is so difficult to understand. All these apologists trying to explain what have led him to take her life are just stupid.</description><pubDate>Thu, 02 Jul 2026 06:54:50 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Review: Three UK 'rape gang' reports</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397769-review-three-uk-rape-gang-reports/?do=findComment&comment=20579668]]></link><description>This Beast is to be released today charged with over 30 offences for Raping girls as young as 12.

My Thai wife though feels the average Vietnamese can speak English better than Thais. Vietnam is a great place to visit - and very economical compared to Thailand. But for reasons others have pointed out, as for a place to call home, Thailand gets my nod quite easily. Da Nang gets my thumbs up, and is probably the best airport to arrive at to avoid the huge queues at immigration in Hanoi and HCMC.  BTW - on visas - UK and EU passport holders can arrive visa-exempt. Americans, Canadians, Australians need a visa before travel. I think they also need to enter and depart from the same airport.</description><pubDate>Thu, 02 Jul 2026 06:50:55 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Aussie Faces Murder Charges in Pattaya</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397691-aussie-faces-murder-charges-in-pattaya/?do=findComment&comment=20579660]]></link><description>What's the weather got to do with it?</description><pubDate>Thu, 02 Jul 2026 06:50:18 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Putin wants to talk</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397471-putin-wants-to-talk/?do=findComment&comment=20579659]]></link><description>Currently Russia is mostly a wartime economy  https://www.firstpost.com/world/russias-wartime-economy-squeezes-small-businesses-as-costs-soar-demand-weakens-14027671.html</description><pubDate>Thu, 02 Jul 2026 06:49:47 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>France-Convicted People Smuggler Seeks UK Asylum</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397907-france-convicted-people-smuggler-seeks-uk-asylum/?do=findComment&comment=20579658]]></link><description>Lotsa questions.

Get today's headlines by email   Police from Muang Mukdahan Police Station responded around midday to the crash on a road near Ban Na Wiang Kae in Na Si Nuan subdistrict, Muang district, Mukdahan. A bronze-gold pickup truck bearing registration from Mukdahan struck a group of monks who were walking on a religious pilgrimage.  Five monks died at the scene, while seven others suffered serious injuries and a further 20 sustained minor injuries. Emergency responders transported the injured to Mukdahan Hospital and nearby hospitals, where one of the seriously injured monks later died, bringing the total death toll to six.    According to investigators, the boy&#x2019;s grandmother, 72-year-old Thong Yoon, said her grandson, identified only as &#x201C;A&#x201D; to protect his identity, is an 11-year-old child with special needs. She said he had taken the pickup truck from the family home earlier that morning without permission, and she did not know where he intended to go.
