Report Phuket Prepares for Landmark Tsunami Drill: CMEX 25
Phuket is set to host the largest tsunami disaster drill in years, with the CMEX 25 national crisis response exercise scheduled for June 24-26. The exercise will span six Andaman coastal provinces, with Phuket taking the lead. Designed to enhance preparedness for a worst-case tsunami scenario, the drill will involve government agencies, rescue teams, schools, and local residents. The announcement came during a planning meeting on May 8 at Phuket Provincial Hall, led by Lieutenant Colonel Adul Chuthong, the Deputy Governor of Phuket. He was accompanied by Mr Wichit Sutthaso, Chief of the Provincial Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Office, and representatives from various sectors. The meeting outlined the exercise's meticulously crafted three-day agenda. "Preparedness saves lives," stated Lt. Col. Adul. "This exercise will test our readiness and improve our ability to respond effectively if disaster strikes." Organised by the Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation (DDPM), CMEX 25 will feature both live drills and academic seminars to fortify multi-agency coordination in the region. A central objective is to ensure that everyone, from first responders to schoolchildren, is well-versed in tsunami response procedures. Schedule Overview: June 24 The event will kick off with the DDPM director-general overseeing the opening ceremony. The day will include inter-agency seminars and expert discussions on emergency warning systems, held at Rajaprachanukroh School 36 and Kamala Kindergarten School. June 25 Action intensifies as five live drill stations conduct simulations, including: Tsunami warning and evacuation Victim search and rescue Emergency medical treatment Temporary shelter operations Water and air rescue procedures June 26 A "dry run" of emergency operations will culminate in a high-level closing ceremony, officiated by the Deputy Prime Minister or a designated representative. Officials have confirmed task allocations for each participating agency, with a joint site visit and coordination meeting planned for May 14 at Kamala Kindergarten School in Kathu district. CMEX 25 is part of a larger initiative to bolster regional emergency preparedness and remind coastal communities of the ongoing need for vigilance. With the memory of the devastating 2004 tsunami lingering, officials hope to reinforce the crucial message: stay alert, stay safe. Adapted by ASEAN Now from The Thaiger 2025-05-09 -

BREAKING NEWS American Cardinal Robert Prevost Elected Pope Leo XIV
The point is by having such an international type American that spent so much of his career in Peru, it softened the idea of the first American pope which is an idea with a lot of traditional opposition. I'm sure most assumed there would be a first Asian and first African pope before the first American. But with this particular American you get North and South. Also of course he speaks Latin, Spanish, and Italian as well as English. -

Sick leave due to burnout and insomnia — what hospital in Bangkok?
I’ve been dealing with increasingly severe burnout, anxiety, depressive mood, and worsening insomnia since a year or more now. Situation at work has been turning increasingly toxic and I feel like they’re trying to make me resign—I’m not getting work anymore, am not being invited to meetings/task as usual, and responsibilities that used to be mine go to others. If I get breadcrumbs of a task, I’m being put under a microscope with someone breathing on my neck looking for mistakes or framing judgement calls as mistakes. I started waking up in the early morning hours with anxiety and worries and this has turned into severe insomnia and I barely get 5 hours of fragmented sleep. I need a break but I’m not willing to let go of the severance, which is quite substantial and something I’ve worked for and earned over the years. Are there any hospitals that would issue an extended sick leave due to burnout, stress etc.? The longer the better. -
