Crime Tragedy Strikes as Narathiwat Officer Killed in Shooting
Picture courtesy of ทันข่าวภาคใต้ Facebook In a distressing turn of events, a 32-year-old police officer, Police Lieutenant Ruzdee Jedorlor, was tragically killed in a shooting incident last night in Narathiwat province. The shocking event unfolded near his home in the Paluru subdistrict of Su-ngai Padi district, casting a pall over the tight-knit community. Police Lieutenant Jedorlor was preparing to attend a local funeral when the attack occurred. As he stepped outside his residence, an area known for its dense foliage, he was ambushed by unknown assailants positioned in an adjacent, under-construction house. This calculated assault saw the attackers fire upon Jedorlor, delivering fatal shots to his chest and leg. Residents of the nearby community, responding swiftly to the gunfire, managed to transport the severely injured officer to Su-ngai Padi Hospital. Despite their rapid efforts, his injuries proved too severe, and he succumbed shortly after arrival. The assailants, meanwhile, took advantage of the confusion at the scene to make their escape, leaving the community reeling from the sudden loss. Local authorities have since launched a full investigation into the attack, combing through evidence and gathering testimonies in a bid to understand the motive behind the brazen killing. A task force has been dispatched to capture those responsible for this heinous act, while the incident also highlights persistent security challenges in the region. The province of Narathiwat, alongside neighbouring Pattani and Yala, has been grappling with unrest for years, an issue often stemming from complex historical and socio-political dynamics. This tragic incident adds another layer to the ongoing tension within the area, underscoring the precarious nature of life for law enforcement officials stationed here. As investigators continue their pursuit, the local community has been urged to remain vigilant and to report any suspicious activities. This heinous act has shaken them, not only because it robbed them of a dedicated officer but also because it took place in what is traditionally a period of sombre reflection and respect. Funeral preparations are underway for Police Lieutenant Jedorlor, as family, friends, and colleagues come to terms with their loss. The fallen officer is remembered for his dedication to his role and his commitment to community service, leaving behind a legacy that will not soon be forgotten. The loss of Police Lieutenant Jedorlor reverberates far beyond his immediate community, symbolising broader concerns affecting the region. It is a grim reminder of the risks faced by those who serve and protect in challenging environments. In the wake of this incident, calls for reinforced security measures and increased support for local law enforcement have grown louder. Many hope that such steps will prevent future tragedies and foster a more secure environment for all residents. As the nation mourns another victim of senseless violence, attention remains focused on finding justice for Police Lieutenant Jedorlor and ensuring that his sacrifice is not in vain. The authorities are working diligently to bring the perpetrators to justice, aiming to restore a sense of peace and safety to the area. Adapted by ASEAN Now from The Thaiger 2025-07-23 -

Can no longer renew driving licence to 5 years, now 2 years only
Kasikorn clients of Thai nationality keep their 4000000 limit. So how can you say foreigners aren't singled out? Neither are Thais concerned by the drivers license change. That obviouly depends on your optics of the situation and whether someone is of a 'victim mentality' or just sees the bigger picture. The NDID system is tied to the Thai National ID cards and is simply banks protecting themselves. The Banks have not set up a system to 'single out foreigners'... the Banks have set up a system to protect themselves under new regulations that fits < 99% of their customer base. IF this 50,000 baht 'daily' limit applies to all foreigners on all Bank Accounts - I'll be as annoyed with it as you are, I'll have to actually visit a Branch to make a larger transfer and that will be annoying - nevertheless, I still will not see this as a 'singling out foreigners' in any malicious manner - rather its simply the clumsiness of not accounting for the full 100% of its customer base - thats all.... Its the same with the DLT - though I don't think the announcement is quite as litteral as it reads - I *believe anyone with a Non-Imm Visa (resident Visa) will still be able to get their full 5 year License (at Rayong and Banglamung DLT)... I think the announcement is a clumsy translation thats all... No specific or malicious targeting of foreigners. -

How it started. There is ZERO chance any good can come from Trumps tariffs which are just a tax on Americans. How it's going. Well OK his tariffs have raised 10s of BILLIONS of $$ and are helping reduce the trade defecit and 4 countries have already signed deals. All incredible achievements, but the left are seriously butthurt and are desperately trying to paint a negative spin on the heroic achievement. Classic😅
