Tariffs, tariff and tariffs again
The Del Monte company felt it. After 139 years, they've had to shut down because the tariffs hit the ingredients they use to the point where it is no longer feasible to run their business. Del Monte! They've been in business longer than anyone here has been alive! -

Crime Online Gambling Admin Caught Illegally Crossing Border via Boat in Sa Kaeo
Picture courtesy of Kaoded. Three Thai nationals have been apprehended after attempting to illegally cross the Thai-Cambodian border via boat in Aranyaprathet District, Sa Kaeo Province. The group included suspected online gambling administrators and a Cambodian man alleged to have been paid to assist with their illegal re-entry into Thailand. The arrest took place at approximately 14:00 on 10 July, along the Phrom Hot Canal near Ban Mai Khok Sabang in Tha Kham Subdistrict. Acting on intelligence reports, officers from the Burapha Force and the 1304th Ranger Company (under the 13th Ranger Regiment) set up an ambush along the waterway. A small boat crossing from the Cambodian side was intercepted, and four individuals were detained, three Thai nationals and one Cambodian alleged to be the smuggler. Among those arrested were Mr. Chaiyachet Tiangsa and Mr. Thitipan Iamnittaya, both of whom admitted to working as administrators for online gambling platforms “UFA Website” and “Slot 888,” based in the Cambodian border town of Poipet. They told authorities they earned monthly salaries of 18,000–20,000 baht and paid the Cambodian man 5,000 baht each to help smuggle them back into Thailand. A third Thai national, Ms. Angkana Sae Chen, claimed she had crossed into Cambodia only to visit her husband, a Filipino construction worker. The Cambodian boatman, identified as Mr. Chueng Nut, contradicted the accounts of the Thai suspects, claiming he was paid just 50 baht per person to ferry them across the canal. All suspects have been handed over to Klong Luek Police Station for legal processing and further investigation. Authorities are now working to expand the inquiry into potential links with larger cross-border online gambling operations. Adapted by Asean Now from Kaoded 2025-07-12 -

Report Deadly Disease Alert: Melioidosis Claims 72 Lives in Thailand
Photo of Dr Panumas Yanawet Sakul courtesy of KhaoSod The Thai Ministry of Public Health has sounded an alarm over melioidosis, a dangerous disease that has claimed 72 lives and infected 1,676 people. The disease, also known as Whitmore's disease, thrives in waterlogged areas and is spread through contact with contaminated soil or water. The public is urged to avoid walking through muddy waters, inhale dust with caution, and prioritise cooked food. Dr Panumas Yanawet Sakul of the Department of Disease Control highlighted the increased risk due to recent heavy rains, especially in regions prone to flooding. Farmers and those working in such conditions are particularly vulnerable. The bacteria causing melioidosis can enter the body through skin abrasions, ingestion of contaminated items, or inhaling polluted dust. Symptoms generally appear between four and nine days but can emerge as late as a year. The symptoms are broad and may be mistaken for other illnesses, ranging from fever and respiratory issues to severe infections leading to abscesses in organs like the lungs and liver. Such complexities necessitate lab tests for accurate diagnosis. Current statistics indicate 1,676 infections and 72 fatalities, predominantly affecting those over 40, with the majority in northeastern provinces such as Mukdahan and Yasothon. Deputy Director General Dr Direk Khamphan advised measures to curb the risk, including wearing protective footwear and gloves, disinfecting wounds immediately, and avoiding soil and water contact when injuries are present. Eating properly cooked food and drinking boiled or packaged water are essential precautions. Avoiding dust exposure and seeking medical help for persistent fevers, especially those lasting over two days, are vital. The public is encouraged to follow these guidelines to prevent the spread of this potentially fatal disease. Those seeking further information can contact the Department of Disease Control hotline at 1422. Adapted by ASEAN Now from The Thaiger 2025-07-12
