Thai Nightclubs Face Crackdown on Ketamine Vape Drug
File photo courtesy: Wikipedia Thailand is intensifying its efforts to clamp down on the growing trend of "vaped" ketamine, a novel blend involving vape juice and the hallucinogenic drug, increasingly popular among the nightclub scene. This crackdown was confirmed by Anukool Pruksanusak, Thailand's deputy government spokesman, who highlighted the need for stringent measures against this emergent narcotic threat. Ketamine, classified as a Type 2 narcotic in Thailand, comes with heavy legal ramifications. Possession of the substance can lead to severe penalties, including up to seven years in prison and fines reaching 700,000 Thai Baht. More serious is the distribution without legal authorisation, attracting a potential 15-year jail term and fines up to 1.5 million Thai Baht. Despite its reputation for recreational misuse, ketamine holds legitimate applications as a quick-acting anaesthetic in medical settings, appreciated for its ability to induce sedation and alleviate pain. However, its misuse primarily for the purposes of its hallucinogenic effects—whether smoked or inhaled—poses significant health risks. Such escalation in recreational use can lead to severe outcomes. Prolonged usage may foster addiction and even precipitate psychotic disorders. High dosages are alarmingly dangerous, provoking symptoms such as vomiting, seizures, oxygen deprivation to the brain and muscles, and in the direst cases, fatal overdoses. Central to the government's strategy is a reinvigorated commitment to combat all forms of narcotics, with a sharp focus on this ketamine vaping craze. Mr. Pruksanusak underlines the administration's ongoing dedication to spearheading anti-drug initiatives in collaboration with various agencies, aiming to substantially curb the influx and usage of narcotics, reported Bangkok Post. Vigilance is encouraged among the public, who are urged to report any suspicious drug activities. Information can be shared directly with the police or through the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) 1556 Hotline, 02-590-7343, or via the FDA Thai Facebook page. -- 2025-01-20 -

Mentally Ill Man Rescued After Jumping into 5-Metre Deep Well
Picture from responders. A 43-year-old man with mental health issues was safely rescued after jumping into a 5-metre-deep well for unknown reasons in Nakhon Si Thammarat’s Chalerm Phrakiat district. Emergency responders from the Tai Tek Tung Foundation were alerted to the incident around 13.00 at a residence in Village 6, Thang Phun subdistrict. Upon arrival, they found the man, identified as Mr. Kosin, standing in water at the bottom of the well. He was shirtless, wearing long trousers, and appeared disoriented. Rescue workers lowered themselves into the well, using a tripod rope rescue system and securely tied a rope around Mr. Kosin’s body before hoisting him to safety. Fortunately, Mr. Kosin sustained no serious injuries, only minor scratches. Family members expressed gratitude to the rescue team and said they were unsure how long he had been in the well or why he jumped in. The family pledged to monitor his condition closely and provide the necessary care to prevent similar incidents in the future. -- 2025-01-20 -
