Stray Dog Crisis at Pattaya Sports Center: Urgent Call for Change
Thailand is keen to retain the 3rd world country status for practical reasons; they are greatly benefited by that. Such as lower license fee to generic medicine production. That is why the cost of over-the-counter dose is often so inexpensive here. In that respect, expats are also beneficiaries of that scheme. lower license fee of generic medicine production license in the 3rd world countries - Google Search -

Authorities Raid Three Chinese-Owned Factories for Illegal Recycling
Picture courtesy of NRECD Thai authorities have raided three Chinese-owned factories in , Samut Sakhon for illegally recycling old electrical wires and plastic waste, raising serious environmental and fire hazard concerns. The crackdown comes after a similar illegal operation was linked to a factory fire in Ban Phaeo district last month. The operation was led by Pol. Col. Arun Wachirasrisukanya, Deputy Commander of the Natural Resources and Environmental Crime Division (NRECD), alongside Pol. Col. Aphisan Chairat, Chief of Sub-Division 5 of the NRECD, officials from the Ministry of Industry, and Samut Sakhon’s industrial department. Authorities targeted three factories suspected of illegally importing and processing electronic and plastic waste from electrical wires. These factories were identified as: • Theng Da Plastic and Metal Co., Ltd. (Bang Ya Phraek Subdistrict) • Unibro Metal (Thailand) Co., Ltd. (Bang Ya Phraek Subdistrict) • Hong Yue Renewable Resources Technology (Thailand) Co., Ltd. (Kalong Subdistrict) During the raid, authorities discovered serious violations at all three sites: • Theng Da Plastic and Metal Co., Ltd. possessed a valid factory permit but was illegally melting plastic waste without notifying authorities. • Unibro Metal (Thailand) Co., Ltd. was found with large amounts of electronic circuit boards, classified as hazardous waste. Both factories were owned by Luo Fuquan, a 39-year-old Chinese national. He was arrested and charged with: • Operating a factory without notifying authorities • Expanding operations without a permit • Processing hazardous waste without authorisation The suspect was taken to Mueang Samut Sakhon Police Station for further legal proceedings. The other factory; • Hong Yue Renewable Resources Technology (Thailand) Co., Ltd. was found melting metal, emitting strong fumes. The factory’s manager, identified as Yee Kwat, failed to comply with previous official orders. She was charged under the Factory Act and also taken into custody. Authorities have vowed to continue cracking down on illegal recycling operations, citing environmental and public safety risks. The three factories are now under investigation for potential links to other illegal waste-importing networks. Related articles; -- 2025-02-12 -

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
