Transport Thailand's Railway Expansion: A 297.9 Billion Baht Endeavour
The Chinese will tell them where to build, who is going to build it (The Chinese), how much they are going to borrow (from the Chinese) to build it and supply the trains. They won't draw the Thais attention to the heavy penalties (not all financial, Hello, Sri Lanka, Papua New Guinea....) hidden in the contract for the slightest breach or default. They sure as hell will try to gloss over the fact that control of the entity will be retained in Chinese hands. All of this will be facilitated through careful bungs to the right decision makers. Day by day, Thailand is drawn into China's sphere of influence. -

Early assessment suggests US strikes didn’t destroy Iran’s nuclear sites
Trump trashed this deal in 2018. After that, and after the US killed a high ranked person, Iran declared it was not bound any more by this treaty. It is still adhering the NPT, until now! -

Report Anutin Rejects Misdirection Claims on Cannabis and Casino Policies
Pictures courtesy of Anutin Charnvirakul Facebook Anutin Charnvirakul, leader of the Bhumjaithai Party, has firmly rejected accusations that his party mishandled the cannabis policy, particularly regarding its medical application. In addition, he's distanced himself from any endorsement of legalising casinos. Anutin was quick to respond to the government's recent plan to reclassify cannabis as a narcotic, a move allowing its use strictly for medical purposes. He emphasised that Bhumjaithai had already proposed comprehensive legislation to address medical cannabis during their time in government. Unfortunately, these efforts were stalled by coalition partners. He stated, “To claim we left the cannabis issue unresolved is simply not true. We pushed for a proper legal framework, but it lacked support.” Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra and the ruling Pheu Thai Party have introduced a new cannabis bill, which Anutin supports. He sees no conflict between Bhumjaithai’s original focus on medical cannabis and this new proposal, emphasising that their aim was always centred on medical use. “Our aim was always centred on medical cannabis use, and I see no issue with this new move,” Anutin affirmed. Now sitting in opposition, Anutin is poised to ensure Bhumjaithai plays a vital role in scrutinising government policies. He confirmed the party's full engagement in reviewing the 2026 national budget bill, which remains under committee consideration. Addressing the contentious draft legislation for legalised casinos and entertainment complexes, Anutin clarified Bhumjaithai’s consistent opposition. He remarked, “We have always been against casinos. When we were in government, we had to compromise. But now, as the opposition, we are free to make our own decisions.” As Bhumjaithai transitions from government partner to opposition, Anutin stated that the party would take definitive stances on contentious issues, free from coalition constraints. With the freedom to act independently, Bhumjaithai is set to play a more assertive role in shaping Thailand’s policy landscape, focusing on clarity and conviction in its positions.
