Pick-up Truck Transporting Metal Gates on Expressway Sparks Safety Concerns
Why are you posting such garbage? Do you realize that this person does not represent the mindset of the population? What is wrong, is of course that they just took him off the express way. Seem like they have no such written regulations for minor roads. That´s wrong but it does not make it a third world country. FYI - Here is a list of Third World Countries: https://www.nationsonline.org/oneworld/third_world.htm -

Thai PM Responds to US Visa Ban Uncertainty Amid Uyghur Deportation
File photo courtesy: Siam Rath Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra is in the spotlight as questions loom over her potential inclusion on a U.S. visa ban list. The speculations emerged following Thailand's recent deportation of forty Uyghur detainees to China, a move that has sparked international debate. Reports suggest that in response, Washington might have restricted visas for certain Thai officials. Speaking to the media on Tuesday, Ms Paetongtarn stressed the absence of official confirmation regarding her status on any restricted list, saying, "There's no confirmation yet. I still don't know." The Prime Minister expressed confidence that the Foreign Affairs Ministry would soon provide clarity on the matter and downplayed any serious repercussions, affirming that Thailand has no underlying conflicts with the United States. According to Paetongtarn, the deportation was in line with the kingdom’s obligations, following a prolonged period of holding the Uyghurs in Thailand. Justice Minister Pol Col Tawee Sodsong defended the decision, countering criticism by explaining the multitude of complaints received, particularly by the Immigration Bureau. He highlighted that the actions were compliant with laws prohibiting torture and enforced disappearance. Pol Col Tawee underscored that Thailand carefully navigates legal constraints, ensuring deportees would not face harm in China. The Thai government reportedly received assurances from China guaranteeing humane treatment for the Uyghurs and promised Thai officials would periodically monitor their situation. The minister, along with a high-profile delegation including Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister Phumtham Wechayachai and Deputy National Police Chief Pol Gen Kraibun Thuadsong, plans to visit the city of Kashgar in Xinjiang, China. This visit, scheduled for Wednesday, aims to assess firsthand the wellbeing of the deportees, substantiating the commitment to international obligations and human rights standards. Pol Col Tawee also clarified that the upcoming visit should not be perceived as connected to any potential U.S. visa restrictions, indicating that the two issues are independent. He dismissed notions of a comprehensive visa ban from Washington, expressing optimism in ongoing diplomatic engagements. The diplomatic row spotlights Thailand's challenges at the intersection of human rights and international relations, as it navigates pressures from global actors whilst adhering to domestic and international legal frameworks. Any imminent developments regarding the visa status of Thai officials remain to be seen, but the conversation around human rights adherence is sure to continue. Meanwhile, the government's handling of this diplomatically sensitive case will remain under the microscope of international observers, reported Bangkok Post. -- 2025-03-19 -
