NBTC Approves Cell Broadcast System for Disaster Alerts
The National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) has given the green light for a new cell broadcast system designed to send disaster alerts swiftly. The system, to be rolled out by two leading mobile operators, Advanced Info Services (AIS) and True Corporation, aims to provide timely warnings to residents in affected areas without requiring any special apps. AIS and True Corporation successfully trialled the technology earlier this year, demonstrating its efficacy in delivering text messages and audible alerts directly to mobile phones within the radius of their cell towers. Trairat Viriyasirikul, acting secretary-general of the NBTC, announced that both companies are expanding their network infrastructure. Additional cell towers are being installed and should be operational by the fourth quarter of the year, enhancing coverage for disaster alerts. To further encourage participation, the NBTC has decided to offer financial incentives to AIS and True. For the next three years, these companies will benefit from reduced contributions to their Universal Service Obligations. While the exact figures remain undisclosed, this move is expected to significantly lower operational costs, providing a win-win scenario for the operators and the public. Simultaneously, the NBTC is in talks with the state-run National Telecom company, which has proposed a similar alert system. Approval is pending as the commission awaits more detailed plans. Building on mobile alerts, the NBTC has also mapped out plans to test an emergency warning system through digital terrestrial television. The pilot will be conducted via the Royal Thai Army's Channel 5, aiming to reach another segment of the population that might be unaffected by mobile alerts. This multi-platform approach is designed to enhance public safety, ensuring that emergency information is accessible to as many people as possible. With these initiatives, the NBTC aims to bolster Thailand's preparedness and responsiveness to natural disasters, making sure that critical information reaches the public promptly and effectively. -- 2024-09-19 -

Israel Hamas War the Widening Middle East Conflict
‘Sophisticated evil’: Beirut medics and civilians horrified by pager attacks https://amp.theguardian.com/world/2024/sep/18/lebanon-beirut-medics-civilians-horrified-pager-attacks “By doing this today, they can get to anyone. They can get to us in our bedrooms. They breach all laws of war and humanity. And no one is stopping them,” Raydan said. For others, fear was pushed aside by a deep anger – mainly at the indiscriminate nature of the attack. “I am a medical worker, but the grudge I have now … I will insist on teaching it to my great-great-grandson. I was neutral, but now I’m going to take a side,” Yusuf said, stressing, however, that his resistance would be non-violent. -

Israel Hamas War the Widening Middle East Conflict
Pager bombs won’t stop Hezbollah - SPECTATOR https://archive.is/BCfYG Nevertheless, it does not alter the essential elements of the picture regarding Israel’s ongoing confrontation with Hezbollah on its northern border. A core and clearly established element of this picture, after all, is that Israel consistently displays tactical capacities superior to its Iran-backed enemy. But these capacities, up to and including the latest demonstration, have not enabled Jerusalem to decisively alter the strategic picture – which gives less reason for cheer. Hezbollah and its masters in Teheran have demonstrably operated with complete indifference to the fate of the local civilian populations in the areas they control and continue to do so. Their project, unlike that of Israel, does not depend on the consent of the governed. -

Thailand: Where white losers that can’t get laid go
She's a loser. Thick as mince, bragging about sitting on a beach instead of in her room 🤣 Sure there's plenty of what I'll refer to as the 'dim witted' in Thailand but the money is a good filter, they won't last too long. I suspect she's talking about tourists. That she thinks life is all about women is also hilarious, it won't end well for her At one point she mentions she can tell how much of a beta loser someone is just by looking at them, some advanced social skills right there - I have a similar ability to detect the level of whore in a woman with just a glance in her direction. -

Thailand: Where white losers that can’t get laid go
I think your association with Patong (per username) is clouding your view. There are plenty of Thai female architects, scientists and accountants and although your comment wasn’t directed at me, I can assure you that some of them are in relationships with Westerners -

Just to point out . You are making false accusations of genocide about the Palestinians , then go on to state that Israelis should be removed from their land and Country , a Country where they have lived for over 3000 years ..............which would actually be a real genuine genocide . You favour a genocide . -
