Fire Fire Destroys Cannabis Lab in Central Pattaya
Picture courtesy of Daily News A mysterious blaze has engulfed a cannabis lab in the heart of Pattaya, causing a stir among tourists. At 4pm on 25 May, Pol. Lt. Suthirapan Thapasi, an investigator from Pattaya City Police, responded to a fire at the "Smoke Weed" cannabis shop on Soi 13/2, Beach Road, Nong Prue, Bang Lamung, Chonburi. Two fire engines from Pattaya City were dispatched to tackle the blaze. The incident occurred in a four-storey commercial building, with the ground floor operating as a cannabis shop and the second floor serving as a lounge for customers. The third and fourth floors hosted the cannabis lab, where the fire originated on the fourth floor. Smoke billowed from the building, alarming nearby tourists. Firefighters worked for about 30 minutes before bringing the situation under control. The investigation revealed that the lab equipment was completely destroyed by the fire. Evidence of an electrical short, resembling a minor explosion, was found near a power socket on the wall. The police have temporarily suspended the use of the building to preserve the scene for further investigation by forensic officers. Picture courtesy of Daily News Ms. Pawarisa, 26, the shop manager, mentioned that she had only been working there for less than two weeks and that the shop's systems were not fully organised. While working downstairs, a bartender from the opposite establishment shouted multiple times to alert them of the fire. Upon discovering the smoke pouring from the fourth floor, she contacted the fire brigade and police for assistance. The cost of damages is yet to be determined but is estimated to be in the hundreds of thousands of baht. Although the exact cause of the fire remains unknown, Ms. Pawarisa observed leaks in the lab's roof during recent heavy rains, which might have contributed to the incident.

Politics Sondhi and Jatuporn Join Forces Against Thaksin's Legacy
Picture courtesy of Facebook คาราโอเกะชั้นใต้ดิน Former major protest leaders Sondhi Limthongkul and Jatuporn Prompan – who were once on opposite sides regarding former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra – made a public show of unity in their efforts to target the father of Thailand's current prime minister. In 2005, Mr Sondhi used his ASTV satellite television channel to launch a public crusade against Thaksin. He became a leader of the yellow-shirt People’s Alliance for Democracy (PAD) movement, which mobilised tens of thousands of protesters against Thaksin’s government in mid-2006. On Sept 19, 2006, then army chief Gen Sonthi Boonyaratglin staged a coup and seized power from Thaksin. Jatuporn Prompan, leader of the People’s Unity Group, is a former leader of the red-shirt United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD) and a key political ally of the ruling Pheu Thai Party, now led by Thaksin’s daughter and Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra. Sondhi and Jatuporn appeared together and confirmed their partnership at the former’s discussion event at Thammasat University in Bangkok on Sunday. Jatuporn was not what he used to be and he suffered from what he used to believe, Sondhi said. Jatuporn had worked for Thaksin but at present was fighting against Thaksin and ready to work for the public interest, Mr Sondhi said. He said he invited Jatuporn to support his movement. Mr Sondhi earlier threatened to hold street protests unless the government scraps the 2001 memorandum of understanding (MoU) on maritime claims in the Gulf of Thailand. He previously said the MoU had created an overlapping claims area (OCA) covering 26,000 square kilometres, mainly benefiting Cambodia. The OCA is believed to be rich in fossil energy resources. Signed with Cambodia during the Thaksin Shinawatra administration, the MoU allowed Cambodia to draw the boundary of its territorial waters within Thai maritime territory as declared by King Rama IX in 1973, based on international law, Mr Sondhi said. Critics worry a loss of sovereignty will result. On Sunday Mr Jatuporn said Thaksin had admitted to law violations but had not been imprisoned for a single day. People were opposing Thaksin due to the issues of privileges and double standards, he said. It was time for the country to make a restart while adhering to the strength of its main institutions and its people, Mr Jatuporn said. Adapted by ASEAN Now from Bangkok Post 2025-05-26
