I've been denied entry to Thailand - Now What ! ?
Thank you for the response. I would think more that it would be an issue when I enter Thailand again. As the IO today instantly asked me why I did not fly out on the date that I had previously given to the IO when first entering Thailand on a visa exempt entry. When I have the correct non o visa that might probably not be an issue any more. Yes I will be 50 on March 24th. But I am not registered in my home country, which a prerequisite for obtaining a Non O visa. I heard it is possible to obtain that visa inside of Thailand via agents. Not sure how legit this is, but it requires a lot less documents. Not sure if this will lead to problems at the airport later. Any thoughts? -

Restaurant Manager Threatened with Gun Over 45-Baht Bill
Picture captured from CCTV. A restaurant manager in Chumphon has resigned on 10 February, after being threatened with a firearm by an angry customer over an unpaid 45-baht bill. Fearing for his safety, he has reported the incident to the police. The altercation took place at a restaurant on Thung Wua Laen Beach, Saplee Subdistrict, Pathio District, during the early hours of 7 February. CCTV footage captured a man known as “Lek,” who appeared intoxicated, brandishing a firearm and threatening Mr Phonsriphum, 53, the restaurant manager, before leaving on a motorcycle. On 8 February, Mr Phonsriphum filed a formal police complaint at Pathio Police Station, seeking legal action against the suspect, identified as Mr Thanawat, also known as Lek. Speaking to reporters, Mr Phonsriphum explained his decision to resign, citing concerns for his safety and the well-being of his family. “I have a family to support, a mother with a visual impairment and children who depend on me. If anything happens to me, they will be left without financial support. I cannot risk my life over a situation like this,” he said. The dispute arose when Lek, a regular customer who often waited at the restaurant for his girlfriend, a staff member, left without paying for a bottle of water (20 baht) and soda (25 baht), totalling 45 baht. As the restaurant was closing around 23.00 a staff member attempted to collect the outstanding amount, only to find that Lek had already left. Mr Phonsriphum then messaged Lek’s girlfriend, requesting payment. Lek later contacted the manager, asking for a QR code to transfer the money. However, he failed to complete the transaction, leading another patron to settle the bill on his behalf. The manager believed the matter was resolved until Lek returned in a rage. While Mr Phonsriphum and his female staff were closing the restaurant, Lek arrived on his motorcycle, verbally abusing the manager with aggressive language. He then pulled out a handgun, chambered a round, and threatened him before holstering the weapon and leaving. Fearing further encounters, Mr Phonsriphum decided to quit his job at the restaurant and instead take a role at a shooting range, where he feels safer. Police are currently investigating the case. -- 2025-02-12 -

Is Elon Draining the Swamp on Government Spending or Is He the Swamp?
"Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?" “A republic, if you can keep it.” Benjamin Franklin, September 17, 1787 From the same speech: “In these sentiments, Sir, I agree to this Constitution, with all its faults, if they are such; because I think a General Government necessary for us, and there is no form of government, but what may be a blessing to the people if well administered; and believe further, that this is likely to be well administered for a course of years, and can only end in despotism, as other forms have done before it, when the people shall become so corrupted as to need despotic government.” -

Jealous Husband Kills Ex-Wife and Takes His Own Life in Shocking Murder-Suicide
Picture from responders. A murder-suicide unfolded in Phichit in the early hours of the morning of 10 February, after a man shot his former wife three times before turning the gun on himself. Friends who arrived at the scene were left in shock after witnessing the aftermath. The incident occurred at around 00:30, in a rented room near the Phichit bypass road in Tha Luang subdistrict, Mueang Phichit district. Police and emergency services were alerted, with officers from Mueang Phichit Police Station, led by Police Lieutenant Siroj Phetdee, arriving swiftly at the scene. Upon entry into room number 4, authorities discovered 22-year-old Nattaphon, a resident of Pa Makap, Phichit, lying dead on her back with three gunshot wounds to the head from a .38 calibre revolver. Nearby, 37-year-old Preecha, a resident of Nong Phra, Wang Sai Phun district, was found face down, barely alive, with a gunshot wound to the forehead. Despite being rushed to Phichit Hospital by rescue workers, he succumbed to his injuries shortly after arrival. A.38 calibre revolver was found in Preecha's hand, confirming that he was the perpetrator. A key witness, 20-year-old Pojanart, who was visiting Nattaphon with two friends, described the harrowing moment the attack took place. "At around midnight, we were about to leave the room when suddenly, out of nowhere, Preecha, also known as Sia Ball, ran inside before we could react. Then we heard three gunshots, followed by another. We rushed back in and saw them both lying in pools of blood. That's when we called the police," she recounted. According to the police investigation, Nattaphon and Preecha had been married but had separated nearly a month ago. Preecha had repeatedly attempted to reconcile with his ex-wife, but she refused. This rejection is believed to have been the motive behind the fatal shooting. Police continue to investigate the incident, but preliminary findings confirm that Preecha shot Nattaphon before ending his own life in a final act of desperation. -- 2025-02-12
