Report Sirikit Dam Prepares for Heavy Rain with More Discharge
People tend to ignore water with little respect until you watch your house float away The Thais ability to control Thailand's wet season of excessive water and still supply water to the fields four months into the dry season through reservoirs and interconnecting canals is nothing short of engineering genius just watch this video of a 75 + year old controlled canal meandering along a road through foothills, over ravines and under rivers, spanning from the Yom River Weir to well past city of Phrae almost 40 kilometers away. Maybe a boring video to some, but filmed in 4k and to those that wonder how do they do that, is an interesting twisting journey. https://youtu.be/c5BtoeZ3coY -

BKK Bank New Acct-Long term expat to provide ID from home countr
You are. Last year I needed a new ATM card and the call center told me I could go to any branch. Any branch, for sure. So I went to the nearest branch and they made a big deal about how I was at the wrong branch and I had to go back to the original branch. I held my ground, but the clerk made me suffer and fill out tons of paperwork. I was there for at least 2 hours just to get a replacement card. This has been festering for a while I guess.- 1

Cambodia’s Media Clampdown Backfires in Online PR War
As border tensions flare once more with Thailand, Cambodia is finding itself outmanoeuvred—not on the battlefield, but in the information war playing out across global media and social networks. Online, Cambodian influencers are voicing outrage over what they see as unfair international coverage. Pop star Sinora Roath accused Thailand of greed in a viral video, while content creator Chris Dyna claimed the global press “only reports from Thailand,” skewing public perception. “Just because Thailand is bigger and has more media coverage, Cambodia is a villain now?” asked influencer SreyNea Nea. Yet the problem, say analysts, is less about media bias and more about Cambodia’s own failure to support a free press. In contrast to Thailand—rated “partly free” and still home to active civil society and critical journalism—Cambodia has spent years gutting its independent media. The closure of Voice of Democracy in 2023 was just the latest blow, following the shutdown or state capture of the Cambodia Daily, Phnom Penh Post, and dozens of radio stations. Journalists who persist in investigating power face threats, arrests or exile. With nearly all credible media voices silenced, Cambodia has become what critics call an “information vacuum.” International outlets like Reuters, Al Jazeera and the BBC base their regional reporting in Bangkok, where at least some degree of press freedom remains. Cambodia, by contrast, offers little access and less transparency. The result is predictable: in the absence of independent reporting from Phnom Penh, the world is hearing mostly from Thailand. Many Cambodians now decry foreign “misinformation,” yet years of domestic censorship have left the country without trusted channels to challenge it. As the war of narratives unfolds, it is influencers—not journalists—who are left to defend Cambodia’s case, often without facts to back it up. If the Cambodian government wants its story heard, it must first allow someone to tell it. In the information age, credibility cannot be manufactured through slogans or silenced dissent. It must be earned—by letting the truth speak freely. -2028-08-07
