Volunteer Security Officer Shot Dead While Tending Durian Orchard in Yala Province
Picture from responders. A volunteer security officer was fatally shot in a suspected ambush while on leave and working in his durian orchard in Bacho village, Bannang Sata district, Yala province. The incident occurred at approximately 09:40 on 11 April. Local police from Bannang Sata Police Station were alerted by the village head of Moo 2, Bacho sub-district, of a shooting involving an unknown number of armed assailants. The attackers opened fire with unidentified automatic weapons, targeting the victim who was applying fertiliser to durian trees on his land. The deceased has been identified as Mr. Marosadee, 49, a senior volunteer with the Bacho District Volunteer Defence Corps. He was reportedly on leave at the time and tending to his family’s durian and rubber plantation when the attack took place. He died at the scene from multiple gunshot wounds, primarily to the head. Initial reports suggest the attackers, believed to be at least two individuals, used military-grade firearms in the assault. After the shooting, the suspects allegedly stole Mr. Marosadee’s .38 calibre sidearm before fleeing the scene. Authorities from both the police and district volunteer forces responded swiftly, securing the area and transporting the body to Bannang Sata Hospital for a forensic examination. Police have not yet confirmed a motive and are continuing to gather evidence. They will also interview the victim’s family and close contacts. However, one potential line of investigation points to the ongoing unrest in Thailand’s southern provinces. The situation is particularly sensitive given that Mr. Marosadee’s father was also the victim of a fatal shooting in a similar ambush some years ago. Security has been heightened in the area as police work to determine whether this killing is linked to broader insurgent activity or represents a targeted personal attack. An investigation is ongoing. -- 2025-04-12 -

DTV border bounce - need 20k cash and return flight ticket just in case?
Understood. However, I was thinking that when you are nearly to finish your 180 days and you need to leave the country and come back to get a new stamp of 180 days, maybe immigration officer at the airport or even at the border could ask you to show financial requirements, as immigration office use to do for marriage or retirement extension for example. Maybe requirements are asked only if someone wants to extend the DTV inside the country to the immigration office, without having to exit the country -

Waterspout Spotted off Chalong Bay, Phuket
Picture courtesy of Matichon. A rare and dramatic waterspout was seen off the coast of Phuket at around midday on 11 April, startling onlookers near the Chalong Bay yacht marina. The natural phenomenon, resembling a tornado over water, formed visibly at sea near the yacht mooring area in Chalong sub-district, Mueang district. Though it remained offshore, the waterspout was clearly visible from land, prompting a mixture of awe and alarm among those nearby. A foreign tourist who witnessed the event managed to capture video footage on a mobile phone, showing a towering column of rotating water spiralling upwards from the sea’s surface. The footage quickly spread online, drawing widespread attention due to the rarity of such events in the area. Authorities have confirmed that there are no reports of damage to yachts, speedboats, long-tail boats, fishing vessels, or coastal property. Officials from relevant agencies are currently reviewing CCTV footage and other data to further assess the situation. -- 2025-04-12 ScreenRecording_04-11-2025 16-00-04_1.mp4 -

Fire Erupts at Plastic Recycling Centre in Bangkok, Blaze Contained Before Spreading
Picture from responders. Firefighters battled a blaze early morning of 11 April, at a plastic recycling factory in the Chom Thong district of Bangkok, managing to prevent the flames from spreading to nearby residential homes. No injuries or fatalities were reported. The fire broke out at around 04:10, at the Chok Pranee Recycling Factory, located in Soi Chom Thong 13, Soi 8. Police from Bang Mod Station responded to reports of a fire affecting residential properties in the area and quickly coordinated with fire crews from Daokanong, as well as rescue volunteers from the Ruamkatanyu Foundation. Upon arrival, authorities found large flames and thick smoke engulfing the rear section of the factory. The blaze spread rapidly over an estimated area of one rai. Firefighters took over an hour and half, to bring the fire under control and prevent it from reaching adjacent homes. Jinda Rakkhong, 60, the factory caretaker, told officials that the fire appeared to have started at the back of the premises and spread quickly. She confirmed that no one was inside the affected area when the fire broke out. The cause of the fire remains unknown. Investigators from the Forensic Science Division are expected to examine the scene to determine the origin and circumstances surrounding the incident. -- 2025-04-12
