Vote for Thai PM in doubt, Chiang Mai fireworks factory explodes : Tim Newton Today - July 25

[webfact]

 

Just when we thought we'd get another vote for Thai PM this Thursday, maybe not. All has been thrown into doubt after a call by the Ombudsman to suspend this week's vote. A fireworks factory has exploded in Chiang Mai injuring 11, a 'super typhoon' is coming out of the western Pacific Ocean and heading towards Philippines, another warning of the rising number of Dengue Fever cases in Thailand.
