I just don't get itI have an hearing aid
The art of parenting seems to have gotten lost. Most parents are afraid to discipline their kids or show them where the lines are. Kids need that, otherwise society runs amok. I know many "ghost children" who are on their phones or tablets way too many hours per day. A few parents are strong enough to restrict that, but most don't. And social media can be incredibly corrosive and toxic for young ones. Glad I won't be around when they are running things. -

Crime Police Arrest Call Centre Gang Impersonating Officers
Picture courtesy of Naewna. Authorities from the Provincial Police Region 6 have successfully arrested a call centre gang impersonating police officers, responsible for defrauding victims. On 10 August police under the leadership of Police Lieutenant General Kitisak Durongkaviboon, Commander of Provincial Police Region 6 and Police Major General Nattawut Phakphoom, Deputy Commander, coordinated with the Region 6 Technology Crime Suppression Unit to crack down on the fraudulent network operating in the Mueang Phichit area. The investigation and arrest were led by Police Major General Dechapol Premsiri, Chief of the Investigation Division, alongside senior officers including Deputy Chiefs Police Colonel Sutthivet Boonyaratnaklin, Police Colonel Ritthinan Puipantawong, and others from the Crime Suppression Bureau. Two suspects were apprehended: 1. Mr. Thawin, 34, residing in Wiang Pang Kham, Mae Sai District, Chiang Rai Province, arrested in Chiang Rai. He was accused of withdrawing money from victim accounts. 2. Mr. Paiboon, 25, residing in Phangam, Wiang Chai District, Chiang Rai Province, arrested in Chiang Mai. He was responsible for receiving the transferred funds from victims and forwarding them to the withdrawer. Both are charged with multiple offences including fraud, computer-related crimes involving false data causing public harm, unlawful use of bank accounts or electronic payment systems, and money laundering. The scam came to light after a victim, Mrs. Boonnam Tiebrat, was deceived on 23 July. She was told that her name had been used to open a new bank account fraudulently and was advised to contact the police. The criminals impersonated officers from Mueang Phichit Police Station via phone and LINE messaging, instructing her not to consult others and to transfer all her funds for “verification”. Believing them, she transferred money through four different accounts, losing a total of 2,055,380 baht. Further investigations revealed the gang’s modus operandi involved recruiting “mule accounts”, bank accounts used to receive stolen funds. The first suspect received approximately 20-25% of the withdrawn amount, while the second suspect earned a fee of 10,000 baht per transfer. The authorities have urged the public to remain vigilant against such scams and to verify any suspicious contact purportedly from law enforcement. Adapted by Asean Now from Naewna 2025-08-11 -

Crime Teacher Kills Man After Punch Over Molestation Claim
Pictures courtesy of Khaosod. A secondary school teacher in Phetchabun province has been arrested after fatally shooting a man who assaulted him during a confrontation over allegations that the teacher had molested his 14-year-old niece. Police from Mueang Phetchabun Station, together with forensic officers and rescue volunteers, were called to a house in Na Pa subdistrict following reports of a fatal shooting. At the scene, they found the body of 43-year-old Mr. Thawisak lying beside the house. He had sustained two gunshot wounds from a .38 calibre revolver, one to his left ribcage and one to the right. The suspected shooter, a teacher at a local school, had gone to Phetchabun Hospital for treatment to facial injuries sustained during the altercation and later contacted police to surrender. According to witness Mr. Chaiwat, 45, he and three friends were drinking outside his home when the teacher arrived with the 14-year-old daughter, who is his pupil, along with a bottle of liquor and soda water. The teacher joined them and spoke about the girl’s frequent absences from school. About 30 minutes later, Mr. Thawisak, a relative of the girl, arrived on a motorcycle and joined the drinking. Shortly after, the girl’s grandmother came to ask which man was the teacher accused of molesting her granddaughter. The grandmother claimed the girl had reported that the teacher touched her arm and neck while giving her a ride and had offered her 500 baht a day to attend school. The teacher denied the allegations and attempted to explain, but Mr. Thawisak reportedly refused to listen and punched him repeatedly. The teacher walked away, then turned back and opened fire, hitting Mr. Thawisak several times. The victim tried to run but collapsed and died beside the house. Police have sent the body for a post-mortem examination and are continuing their investigation. The teacher faces legal action, including potential charges of murder, as officers work to establish the full circumstances of the incident. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-08-11
