Customs Department Bolsters Drug Suppression Efforts with Canine Reinforcements
Picture courtesy of Kaoded The Australian Border Force (ABF) has donated two Labrador Retriever detection dogs, Viking and Paddy, to the Thai Customs Department to strengthen frontline drug suppression efforts. The handover ceremony took place on December 4, at the Customs K-9 Training Centre in Bang Phli, Samut Prakan. Presided over by Thai Customs Director-General Thirachai Attanavanich, the event welcomed key figures including Bjorn Robert, representative of ABF’s Detector Dog Program, and Superintendent Michael Cymbalista, ABF Counsellor for the Mekong region. Also present were executives from the Thai Customs Department and partnering agencies. Director-General Thirachai highlighted the strong bilateral relations between Thailand and Australia in combating drug trafficking. The cooperation was formalized through the ABF–Thai Customs Detector Dog Cooperation 2024–2027 agreement signed on September 25, 2024. Following this, two Thai Customs officers participated in the ABF’s Basic Detector Dog Team Training Course in Melbourne from September 16 to November 8, 2024. The donation of the highly trained dogs is a testament to the ABF’s commitment to supporting Thai Customs in preventing the illegal trafficking of narcotics. “This partnership reflects our shared goal to combat the smuggling of drugs and precursors effectively,” said Thirachai. For the 2024 fiscal year, Thai Customs recorded significant achievements in narcotics suppression, seizing drugs worth 77.94 million baht in 40 cases, along with 1,327 kilograms of cannabis valued at over 13.27 million baht across 199 cases. The addition of Viking and Paddy is expected to enhance these efforts further, boosting operational efficiency and ensuring public safety. Director-General Thirachai also urged the public to exercise caution during the Christmas and New Year period, a time often exploited by criminals for drug smuggling. He warned against accepting packages or travel offers from unknown parties, as these could involve unwitting participation in illegal activities. The introduction of Viking and Paddy marks another milestone in the enduring cooperation between Thai and Australian authorities, strengthening their mutual resolve to combat transnational crime and enhance border security for both nations. -- 2024-12-05 -

Jeremy Corbyn Calls on UK to Act on Slavery Reparations in Jamaica Speech
and will he be demanding that nations that provided the slaves pay reparations as well? If we delve deep enough into history the ancient peoples all used slaves, so will he demand that all nations pay compensation to the descendants of them? He, IMO, is an idiot. -

Mother Dies After Collapsing into Laundry Basin in Pattaya
Picture from responders A heartbreaking incident occurred late night on December 3, in Pattaya, when a mother tragically passed away after collapsing face-first into a laundry basin. The incident took place at an apartment in Soi Aruno Thai, Pattaya, Nong Prue, Bang Lamung District, Pattaya. Emergency responders from the Sawang Boriboon Pattaya City Rescue Unit received an urgent call reporting a woman whose health had deteriorated, causing her to fall unconscious and collapse into the basin. The rescue team, accompanied by local police officers, quickly rushed to the scene. Upon arrival, they found 18-year-old in deep distress, nearly overwhelmed by grief after discovering her 49-year-old mother lying face-down in the laundry basin. The rescue team moved the woman to the center of the room, performed initial life-saving procedures, and attempted CPR before rushing her to the hospital. Unfortunately, after being deprived of oxygen for an extended period, the mother was pronounced dead shortly afterward. According to the daughter, she had been concerned for her mother’s well-being after losing contact with her earlier in the afternoon. When she returned from her part-time job, she attempted to reach her mother by knocking on the door, but received no response. Worried, she entered the apartment and made her way to the bathroom, where she was horrified to find her mother’s lifeless body face-down in the basin. She immediately called for help, and neighbours contacted the rescue team for assistance. Initial reports suggest that the mother had a history of high blood pressure, which may have caused a sudden health episode leading to her collapse. Given that she was alone at the time of the incident, she was unable to help herself. The authorities have since transported the body to Bang Lamung Hospital for further investigation. -- 2024-12-05 -
