Accident State Railway Apologises After Young Woman Seriously Injured in Level Crossing Incident
"He has ordered the immediate formation of a fact-finding committee to investigate the cause of the malfunction and determine accountability." Be a lot quicker if you just send the maintenance crew to swap out the sensor, check the wires / connections from, on the one line that didn't work. -

Another farang smashes up a Thai shop on Bangla Walking Street

Another farang smashes up a Thai shop on Bangla Walking Street
I shouldn't be here, which is about all the truth I've seen you speak. I don't dislike Thailand, just some things about it, like most everyone else, including Thais. I don't dislike any race, creed or nationality. I had a Thai wife, have a Thai girlfriend and have a half Thai daughter. Don't assume what you think about my temperament. Anyone alive can get violent if pushed enough, especially if someone hurts their family. And someone who thinks their genes are superior because they had superior parents, with great DNA, is delusional. That's narcissism speaking, and that's a mental disorder. Easy to spot, impossible to cure, so telling you to get help isn't going to work. -

Trump Vows to Slash Drug Prices with New Executive Order
What other products have the same pricing disparity? And which of them can be the difference between life and death? I can order (for example) a camera from Japan if they're cheaper there, and the only difference is that I may not get the warranty. If I try that with a prescription, I'm subject to arrest. -

Who Gives a Flying Grift?
So now Trump’s gettin’ gifted a bloody $400 million jet by the Qatari royal family, yeah? A gold-plated sky palace with leather seats, diamond bog handles, and a minibar that probably stocks MAGA-branded champagne. And the bloke wants to use it as Air Force One. You what? That’s not diplomacy, mate. That’s FIFA levels of grift. At this point he’s not just runnin’ for president for a 3rd term, he’s auditionin’ for the next season of Dubai Bling. They’re callin’ it a “gift to the Air Force,” which is like sayin’ your mate bought your missus a necklace “for the family.” Nah bruv, we all know who’s wearin’ it. But course, Trump’s out here screamin’ “IT’S FREE! A BEAUTIFUL GIFT!” on that bin fire of a social media app he runs, like that makes it less dodgy. Mate, the U.S. Constitution has a thing called the Emoluments Clause. Bit of a clue there. Says you can’t be takin’ gifts from foreign governments unless Congress gives the nod. And last I checked, Qatar weren’t on the PTA. Now I’m no lawyer, but even I know if you’re swannin’ round in a foreign-funded flying mansion while makin’ policy, that’s what we call bribery. You don’t need a Harvard law degree to clock that. It’s like lettin’ a geezer buy you a pint and then pretendin’ it didn’t affect your opinion when he asks for your Netflix password. Except instead of a pint it’s a 747, and instead of Netflix it’s access to the leader of the free world. And don’t think this is just a cheeky perk. This is Trump basically auctionin’ off the White House parking spot. Qatar donates a jet, and what, they get to pick who runs CENTCOM next? It’s corruption in first class. It’s Article II of the Constitution meetin’ Qatari air miles. It’s him doin’ international law violations with in-flight snacks. Bloke down the pub last night, MAGA hat wearin' plonker, bald eagle tattoo on his calf, thinks NATO is a brand of breakfast cereal, tells me, “This just proves how much world leaders respect Trump.” Respect? Mate, they’re takin’ the piss. They’re butterin’ him up like a Christmas turkey with five-star freebies cos they know all you gotta do is flatter him and he’ll give away Alaska. Say he’s got big hands and next thing you know, Qatar’s got a missile base in Florida. And the worst bit? His fans lap it up like it’s the Sermon on the Mount. “It’s a gift! He deserves it!” No mate, he deserves a criminal inquiry and a bus pass. This ain’t leadership. This is what you get when you let a timeshare salesman run a superpower. But fair play, if Trump ever does rolls up to the G7 in his Qatari jet, don’t act surprised when the in-flight safety briefing includes “how to dodge subpoenas while inflight.” -

Chinese Tourism to Cambodia Surges by Over 50% in Early 2025
KT Sokhuntea Cambodia has recorded a sharp 50.6% increase in Chinese tourist arrivals during the first quarter of 2025, marking a strong recovery in one of the country’s most vital economic sectors. According to a report from the Ministry of Tourism released on Friday, 286,156 Chinese visitors travelled to Cambodia between January and March this year, up from 189,961 during the same period in 2024. China now ranks as the third-largest source of international tourists to the Kingdom, trailing only Thailand and Vietnam. Chinese travellers accounted for 15.6% of Cambodia’s total 1.83 million international tourist arrivals in Q1, underlining their growing importance to the sector. Thourn Sinan, chairman of the Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA) Cambodia chapter, called the growth “encouraging” and credited closer bilateral ties and ongoing tourism initiatives for the boost. “The current cooperation between Cambodia and China in tourism is promising,” he said, adding that increased travel is “contributing significantly to our economy.” He also highlighted the 2025 Cambodia-China Year of Tourism as a key factor in the rising numbers, describing it as a “crucial step” in reviving people-to-people exchanges and tourism-driven growth. The Cambodian government sees tourism as one of four central pillars of the national economy, alongside manufacturing, agriculture, and construction. As the country rebounds from pandemic-era disruptions, a resurgence in tourism offers much-needed revenue and employment. Home to four UNESCO World Heritage sites—including the famed Angkor Wat complex—Cambodia remains a top draw for international visitors. Its coastline, stretching 450 kilometres through four southern provinces, is also gaining traction among Chinese holidaymakers seeking sun and sand. With regional travel rebounding and China reopening to outbound tourism, Cambodian officials are betting on sustained growth throughout 2025. -2025-05-12
