Wild Elephant Herd Threatens Crops in Nakhon Ratchasima
Drone picture from Park Rangers. In a concerted effort to protect local farmers’ crops, park rangers and villagers in Nakhon Ratchasima have been on high alert as a herd of wild elephants, estimated to number up to 100, attempts to encroach on farmland near the Thap Lan National Park. The elephants are reportedly trying to enter the Khao Khat valley, a national forest reserve located between the park and local farming areas. On the night of 26 December, Phawatthasart Chanthep, the head of Thap Lan National Park, led a patrol of rangers and volunteer networks to prevent the herd from moving further into the area. The elephants are believed to have left the protected park and are attempting to establish a temporary habitat in the valley, which is rich in resources such as water and shelter, and lies adjacent to agricultural land. If the elephants succeed in making Khao Khat valley their temporary home, the potential damage to farmers’ crops could be devastating. With harvests ready for collection, the intrusion could cause extensive harm, as was seen last year when a similar herd inhabited the valley for several months, wreaking havoc on local crops and causing significant losses. Drone surveillance has confirmed the presence of the herd along the forest boundary between the villages of Ban Mai and Chao Khian, prompting immediate action from the authorities. Rangers and volunteers have been working tirelessly through the night to push the elephants back into the forest, preventing further damage. This ongoing effort has been in place for the past four months, with the herd consistently attempting to breach the boundaries. Despite the challenges, the collaboration between the volunteer groups and the local community has remained strong. Thanks to their combined efforts, the herd has yet to reach the valley and cause significant destruction, providing some relief for the farmers in the area. However, the situation remains tense, and authorities are committed to continuing their vigilance to ensure the safety of both the local population and the elephants. -- 2024-12-28 -

Passengers Escape Unharmed After Fire on Bus in Roi Et
Picture from responders. An incident unfolded on December 27, when a fire broke out on a passenger bus in Suwannaphum District, Roi Et Province. Fortunately, quick action by the driver and locals averted a potential tragedy, with no injuries reported. Police Lieutenant Thanathip Vijarn, Deputy Inspector (Investigation) at Suwannaphum Police Station, received a report of the fire on Highway 502 (Arunprasert Road) near the entrance of Ban Yang Loeng, Village 12, Dokmai Subdistrict. Upon arrival at the scene, fire crews found that the blaze had already been extinguished, and all passengers had safely evacuated. Initial investigations revealed that the bus had departed from Bangkok the previous evening, heading to Phanom Phrai District, Roi Et. The fire broke out shortly after the vehicle had stopped to drop off passengers. As the bus moved slowly for about 30 metres, a motorcycle taxi driver flagged it down, alerting the driver to flames at the rear of the vehicle. The fire reportedly originated in the lower rear compartment, where multiple batteries were stored, including those powering the air conditioning system. Upon discovering the fire, the driver immediately opened the bus doors and instructed passengers to disembark. The onboard fire extinguishers were used to combat the flames, while nearby residents assisted with water hoses and buckets. Thanks to the swift response, the fire was brought under control without causing any injuries or significant property damage. However, some luggage was soiled by fire extinguisher residue. One passenger described the experience, stating, “I felt my hands trembling when I realised what was happening, but thankfully we all got out safely.” Following the incident, the bus company promptly dispatched a replacement air-conditioned bus to continue the journey. However, some passengers, still shaken by the ordeal, opted to contact relatives to arrange private transportation. The bus company has assured passengers that they will provide assistance for any injuries or property damage resulting from the incident. Investigations into the cause of the fire are ongoing. -- 2024-12-28 -
