Report Cambodian Workers Flee Sisaket, Thailand Amid Border War Fears
Pictures courtesy of Amarin TV A sudden departure of 50 Cambodian workers from their jobs in Sisaket, Thailand, unfolded today as fears of an impending border conflict prompted their return home. Arriving at the Chong Sangam checkpoint, the group carried numerous possessions, including refrigerators, signalling a significant exodus spurred by safety concerns. Chong Sangam checkpoint, allowing passage from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the Thai side and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the Cambodian side, was the scene of this unexpected movement. The workers, many of whom had spent up to ten years in Thailand, departed in six vehicles laden with personal effects. They earned between 420 and 450 baht per day, plus overtime, yet opted to abandon their steady jobs due to heightened insecurity along the Cambodia-Thailand border. Interviews revealed that the workers returned following a call from their families, reacting to warnings from the Cambodian government about potential war threats over disputed border territories. Mr Chai Ratliang, a long-term migrant in Sisaket, expressed that their departure followed urgent requests from family members amid fears of the area becoming a conflict zone as tensions rose over three contested temples and the neighbouring Mombei region. To facilitate their return, the departing Cambodians pooled resources to rent transport for the journey. Despite having stable employment in Thailand, the immediate safety concerns took precedence, leading to this large-scale movement. While they harbour hopes of returning should conditions stabilise, the reality of uncertain employment in Cambodia looms large. Alternatively, they consider seeking opportunities in other countries. In summary, the exodus underscores the fragility of migrant labour amidst geopolitical tensions. The workers' stories reflect the complex interplay between employment stability and personal safety, with future moves contingent on the evolving political landscape in the region.

Crime Drunk Foreigner’s Wild Rampage Shocks Chiang Khan Tourists
Picture via Facebook/ เมืองเลย ชาแนล Chaos erupted in Chiang Khan as a drunken foreigner attacked locals and vehicles with a wooden stick, causing pandemonium in the typically serene Isaan town. Residents promptly alerted the Chiang Khan Police Station after witnessing the suspect’s antics, including striking passersby and damaging multiple cars while recklessly riding a motorcycle. The shocking events were quickly shared on social media, as concerned motorists warned others through photos and accounts of the foreigner’s bizarre behaviour. Witnesses primarily attributed his actions to alcohol intoxication, though some speculated drug use could also be a factor. Upon their arrival, police found the foreigner, approximately aged 45 to 55, still at the scene, nationality unconfirmed, and attempted to search him for drugs to no avail. Refusing the search led to the police arresting him and taking him to the station, where a wooden stick and a knife were confiscated. Picture via Facebook/ เมืองเลย ชาแนล Despite the chaotic episode, no severe injuries were reported. Authorities have charged the suspect under three legal provisions: Section 43(2) and Section 43(8) of the Land Transport Act for intoxicated and reckless driving, potentially yielding up to a one-year jail term and fines between 5,000 and 20,000 Baht. Additionally, under Section 64 of the Vehicle Act, he faces charges for driving without a valid licence, risking up to a month’s imprisonment or a fine of up to 1,000 Baht. This is not an isolated event. A similar incident occurred in Phang Nga Province, where another intoxicated foreign motorist was apprehended after crashing into a road construction vehicle and attempting to bribe officers with 10,000 Baht. Phuket, too, witnessed such antics in April when a foreign couple overturned a sedan and shamelessly danced around the wreck, earning significant public disapproval. These incidents highlight a growing concern over unruly behaviour by some foreign visitors in Thailand, underscoring the importance of law enforcement vigilance to ensure public safety in tourist hotspots.
