Politics Paetongtarn in Turmoil: Thai PM's Popularity Nosedives in Poll

(AP Photo/Sakchai Lalit) In a dramatic shift, Thai Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra faces a startling decline in popularity according to the latest opinion survey by the National Institute of Development Administration. Conducted nationwide from June 19 to 25, this quarterly poll engaged 2,000 respondents, revealing a significant preference for opposition leader Natthaphong Ruengpanyawut as the ideal candidate for prime minister. Poll results showed: Natthaphong Ruengpanyawut (People's Party) Support: 31.48% Favoured for modern ideas and a bold stance. No Suitable Candidate Preference: 19.88% Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha (Privy Councillor, Former PM) Support: 12.72% Praised for honesty and restoring order. Anutin Charnvirakul (Bhumjaithai Party) Support: 9.64% Paetongtarn Shinawatra (Pheu Thai Party) Support: 9.20% The decline in support for Paetongtarn is further exacerbated by a recent controversy involving a leaked phone conversation with Cambodian Senate President Hun Sen. This scandal has potentially affected public perception, contributing to her dwindling support. As for political party preferences: People’s Party Preference: 46.08% United Thai Nation Party (UTN) Preference: 13.24% Pheu Thai Party Preference: 11.52% Bhumjaithai Party Preference: 9.76% No Favoured Party Preference: 7.72% These results point to a challenging political landscape for Paetongtarn, with declining approval rates reflecting a demand for change among the Thai electorate. With Natthaphong and his party surging ahead, the political future of Thailand seems primed for potential realignment. Adapted by ASEAN Now from Bangkok Post 2025-06-30 -

The Human Onion Cloud: Nose Horror at the Gym
Posted after 4am, this so called poster is either in another country or an insomniac. I just got in from Isaan Tawang Deang so still awake. Odds on he's thousands of miles away from Pattaya -

Community Man Takes His Own Life After Being Scolded for Reckless Driving
Picture courtesy of Naewna. A 28-year-old man took his own life in an incident in Sattahip district, Chonburi province, after reportedly becoming upset when criticised for his reckless driving. Police at Na Jomtien Station received a report of a suicide near a canal in Soi Rai Sukkhaphot 2, Moo 7, Na Jomtien subdistrict. Upon arrival at the scene, officers from Forensic Division 2, rescue volunteers from the Sawang Rojanathammasathan Foundation, and forensic investigators discovered the deceased hanging from a takhop tree, near the canal. The victim, identified as Mr. Somporn Homsin, was found wearing a red shirt and long denim trousers. A pair of green sandals and a black shoulder bag were found nearby. There were no signs of physical assault, according to a preliminary examination. According to testimony from Mr. Somporn’s girlfriend, Ms. Kamonrat Channamdaeng, the incident stemmed from a domestic disagreement the previous afternoon (28 June). She recounted that she and her mother were on their way to buy seafood, with Mr. Somporn behind the wheel. His habit of tailgating and erratic driving prompted her and her mother to scold him for being dangerous and potentially causing an accident. Mr. Somporn reportedly took the reprimand to heart, returning home visibly upset. He later left on his motorcycle before returning once more to ask his uncle for money, saying he intended to return to his home province of Nakhon Sawan. He then departed alone. His body was discovered the following morning by the canal. Ms. Kamonrat further revealed that the deceased had a history of psychiatric illness and was required to take daily medication. She suspected that he had not taken his medication recently and that the combination of emotional distress and lack of treatment may have contributed to his decision to end his life. Police have documented the scene and sent the body to Sattahip KM.10 Hospital for a post-mortem examination to confirm the exact cause of death. The deceased’s remains will later be released to his family for religious rites. If you or anyone you know is in emotional distress, please contact the Samaritans of Thailand 24-hour hotline: 02 713 6791 (English), 02 713 6793 (Thai) or the Thai Mental Health Hotline at 1323 (Thai). Please also contact your friends or relatives at this time if you have feelings of loneliness, stress or depression. Seek out help. Adapted by Asean Now from Naewna 2025-06-30
