Report New Mayors Officially Confirmed in Phuket Following Elections
Photo of Lalita Maneesri courtesy of The Phuket News Phuket's political landscape is set for change as the Election Commission of Thailand (ECT Phuket) has confirmed the election results, appointing ten new mayors across the island. After a slight delay, the ECT's main office in Bangkok validated the outcomes on June 4, leaving some residents curious about the transparency of the process. Here's an overview of the newly elected mayors and their municipalities: Patong: Lalita Maneesri of the Patong Creative Party takes the helm, promising a fresh approach to the vibrant beach town known for its nightlife and tourism sectors. Phuket Town: Supachok Laongphet of the Rak Phuket Party will lead, facing challenges such as traffic congestion and the demands of the tourism sector with eager residents anticipating new solutions. Chalong: Samran Jindapol from the Chalong Kao Mai Party returns to office after reclaiming his seat, bringing experience to the municipality. Rawai: Thames Kraitat of the Tum Tay Pattana Rawai Party won uncontested, indicating potential stability for this southernmost area. Wichit: Kreetha Chotiwichpipat continues his leadership with the Pattana Wichit Team, having secured re-election. Ratsada: Jirayut Songyot of the Ko Yut Ratsada Party takes office for the first time, with plans to revitalize this historic area. Pa Khlok: Panya Samphaorat of the Pa Klok Gao Na Party returns despite ongoing corruption charges, sparking debate over his eligibility. Cherng Talay: Sunnirun Rachataphruek of the New Step Party wins as the sole candidate, preparing to lead amid questions about governance differences with the Cherng Talay Subdistrict Administration Organisation. Srisoonthorn: Chalermpon Kerdsap of the Srisoonthorn Pen Nueng Party retains his mayoral position, continuing his leadership. Karon: Wallop Nadon from the Chaoban Party, newly elected, will focus on improving local infrastructure and enhancing the beach resort’s appeal. These leaders bring a mix of new perspectives and experienced governance to the table as they tackle issues of tourism management, local development, and infrastructure improvement. With Phuket being a significant hub for tourism in Thailand, all eyes will be on how these mayors navigate the challenges and opportunities presented in their respective roles. Residents and stakeholders alike anticipate the positive changes these appointments could usher in for the island. Adapted by ASEAN Now from The Thaiger 2025-06-11 -

Greta Thunberg and the Cult of the Omnicause: When Activism Becomes Performance
Greta's Facebook page reads, "Autistic & bipolar climate justice activist," under the Intro header. She has been diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Her parents, mainly her mother, wrote a book (Scenes from the Heart) about their struggles to deal with Greta's eating disorder, depression and mood swings in the years before Greta became famous. Greta has a younger sister who has been diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), so the family had some heavy duty mental health issues with which to deal. In her early years of climate-change fame, Greta was dependent on her father (a failed Swedish actor) for support. He served as her caretaker, business manager, chaperone and personal assistant. After Greta turned 18, other people, mostly female volunteers in Greta's climate group, began taking over the support functions her father once filled. It seems recently these close friends have been replaced by hard-core Hamas supporters. If you look at Greta's Facebook page (3.4 million followers), it's now dominated by posts from the Freedom Flotilla Coalition It's still unclear to what extent she can function independently when it comes to practical details in life, like managing money and paying bills. It's also unclear whether she is subject to depression and mood swings. Given all of that, coupled with her growing alienation from the climate-change movement and acceptance of pro-Hamas antisemitism, it seems unlikely she'll be able to get a "real job." But maybe she could become a spokesman for a sandwich maker! https://x.com/SpencerJJoseph/status/1932032831800140168/photo/1 Or perhaps do ads for a company that makes waterproof cellphones? -
