Traffic Thailand Opens Bridges to Safeguard Elephants from Traffic
File photo for reference only Two innovative bridges in Rayong and Chanthaburi have launched, revolutionising how roads coexist with wildlife. These structures aim to protect wild elephants from speeding vehicles, marking a significant stride in conservation efforts. Nestled in the heart of Thailand's lush terrain, these bridges elevate sections of Highway No. 4060, which meanders through five eastern provinces. Specifically, the bridges span Rayong’s Khao Chamao district and Chanthaburi’s Kaeng Hang Maew district, running above the Khao Ang Rue Nai Wildlife Sanctuary and the Khao Chamao-Khao Wong National Park. Transport Minister Suriya Juangroongruangkit proudly announced the completion of these elevated stretches, designed to provide a secure passage underneath for wildlife, allowing elephants to traverse their habitat safely. This initiative is part of a broader elephant conservation effort under the King's royal patronage. It aims to sustain a balance where elephants and humans can thrive side by side. Suriya emphasised the project's commitment to promoting peaceful coexistence. Montree Dechasakulsom, the Department of Rural Roads’ Director-General, highlighted thoughtful safety features included in the design. Each bridge features 30-metre-long car stop areas, enabling motorists and officials to safely pause and observe the wildlife without disrupting traffic flow. The towering structures, each 11 metres wide and 10 metres high, clearly accommodate elephant crossings below. Built with a budget of 587 million baht (approximately £13.6 million), the bridges are a testament to considered engineering and ecological responsibility. First bridge: Spans 630 metres, located between markers 4+525 to 5+155. Second bridge: Measures 420 metres, between markers 9+517.25 to 9+937.25. Both feature U-turns below to facilitate traffic and access while ensuring wildlife paths remain uninterrupted. Montree expressed the broader ecological vision behind the project, aiming to reconnect fragmented habitats, ultimately preventing vehicle-related wildlife injuries and fatalities. With these bridges, Thailand not only safeguards its majestic elephant population but also sets a precedent in wildlife-friendly infrastructure. This initiative paves the way for future projects that harmoniously integrate development with nature, ensuring that these gentle giants walk in safety beneath our roads.

UK Trump to Be Hosted by King Charles at Windsor: Unprecedented Second State Visit
Well the fortunate part is that for those that you think are behaving in a disgraceful manner (not loyal to the goombah) we're not really being seen, we're not on the world stage. When you're on the world stage and you're supposed to be representing your country, I do believe a different standard applies, don't you? Or has that gone out the window too? -

best pain killer over the counter
Yes, they are amazing! Not available in Thailand, so I ordered some on ebay. My sister had chronic back pain, she had an American guest at the hotel she works at in UK who recognized her problem. He recommended naproxen sodium. The next time he saw her, he said 'The pain has disappeared from your face, too! She is astounded to this day how quickly they took effect, and she hasn't had to take any recently. My story is also knee inflamation and swelling due to years of weight training I think. I have taken four tablets since they arrived about 5 weeks ago! I have had no pain or swelling since! I am starting to believe in miracles! https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/EHUAAOSwJJ5g155F/s-l500.webp -
