Crime Thai Police Arrest Fruit Seller for Child Pornography Distribution
Picture courtesy of KhaoSod The Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau (CCIB) in Nonthaburi recently announced the arrest of Thammasorn, a 32-year-old fruit seller from Chon Buri, accused of distributing child pornography for profit. In a press briefing, Police Lieutenant General Trirong Phiwphan revealed details of the investigation, led by the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force (TICAC), that led to Thammasorn's apprehension. The investigation uncovered Thammasorn's activities on social media platforms, where he allegedly operated secret groups for illicit content distribution. Using the X application, formerly Twitter, under accounts called Nong Khaimuk (Secret Group) and Kai Whan (Secret Group), Thammasorn advertised access to adult content at discounted rates. Despite a prior arrest in January for similar offences, Thammasorn was found to have resumed these illegal activities. Once police gathered sufficient evidence, the Chon Buri Provincial Court issued a search warrant on April 25 for Thammasorn's residence in Baan Bueng district, where mobile phones and bank records were seized. Investigations revealed that Thammasorn created multiple secret groups on the Line app, charging memberships between 100 and 300 baht (US$3 to 9) for access to various pornographic content categories, including family and voyeuristic themes. Thammasorn reportedly confessed to restarting his operations two months ago, earning around 10,000 baht (US$300) monthly, which he claimed was used to cover legal fees following his previous arrest. He now faces charges for importing pornographic material into computer systems, possessing child pornography for sexual exploitation, and promoting its distribution. Thammasorn has been taken into custody at Ban Bueng Police Station, where legal proceedings are underway, marking a significant crackdown in the ongoing battle against online child exploitation.

Almost Refused Entry at Chiang Mai Airport -Be Warned! - 2nd Visa Exemption
Ah no. She checked every page of the passport even after I pointed to where the Re Entry permit was. In my case the relevaant documents wereL 1) The passport 2) The Re Entry Permit 3) OA Visa Health Insurance 4) Boarding Pass. All were presented when I arrived at the check in counter. In the past this process took about 2 minutes. This time it took 10 minutes. Is this enough of an explanation to you? -

Camerata's Guide To The Permanent Residence Process
Many PRs are wondering if they really need to fill in the TDAC before arriving in Thailand. Since it replaces the TM6 arrival card that PRs didn't have to complete, it seems illogical for them to complete the TM6's replacement. However, there is no specific exclusion for PRs in any of the stuff put out by Immigration who have often completely forgotten about PRs when important new regulations are put out, During COVID they allowed people with WPs to come back to Thailand but left PRs without WPs stranded until enough people complained. When they introduced multi-entry visas for NON-Bs they forgot to include PRs in the order and we had to continue buying re-entry visas one by one for another year, until someone got around to issuing a new order. This website seems to require PRs to complete the TDAC https://tdac.in.th/#who-must-submit . If you scroll down you will find this: 2. Personal Information Date of birth Occupation Gender Visa number (if applicable) Country of residence Long-term or permanent foreign residents in Thailand are advised to select 'Thailand' under 'Country of Residence', which will be available once the system is activated. City/State of residence Phone number It is hard to know by foreign permanent residents they mean genuine PRs or other long-term foreign residents, including those on some of the new fangled, costly long-term visas introduced by the Prayudh government with weird names like digital nomad visas. However, taken at face value it looks as if PRs do have to comply, even though there is no logic to this, given that they are, well, permanent residents who didn't have to complete TM6s and have blue tabien baans showing where they live, even if they and the majority of the Thai population mat not live at their registered addresses. Perhaps when they realise the pointlessness of this, in a year or more's time they will issue an order exempting PRs but I am not holding my breath. On the other hand it seems pretty easy to fill in the form. For those unable to fill it in, there is a limited assisted service. So PRs who feel they shouldn't fill it in, can use the assisted service, if they are told they should have filled it in. Anyway it seems you can fill it in any time within 72 hours of arrival. So you should be able to do it in front of the Immigration counter. -

America has emerged....as an international laughingstock
Usual Trump supporter bluster. Might, perhaps, maybe, but little substance. A bit like the "I have done deals with over 200 countries", but I won't tell you which countries.
