Lost Man Found After Six Days in the Forest, Only 3 Kilometres from Village
Picture of the only signs found. Authorities had officially called off the search for a 50-year-old man on the morning of September 14, who had been missing in the forest for six days. Despite extensive efforts, the search team only found a pair of trousers and footprints. The missing man, identified as Mr. Paitoon, disappeared on 8 September after leaving Bunchanuan Village in Sub Yai District, Chaiyaphum Province, and heading into the forest near the foothills, approximately 500 metres from the village. A search team of over 100 individuals, including local officials, soldiers, police, rescue workers, and villagers, along with sniffer dogs from Surathampitak Camp in Nakhon Ratchasima, had been scouring the area in hopes of finding him. During the search, officials discovered signs that Mr. Paitoon had stopped near a water source about 4 kilometres from the village. At the scene, they found a pair of trousers, footprints, and a discarded coffee packet. Despite these clues, the search team and sniffer dogs were unable to locate him. Heavy rain and dense forest conditions severely hampered the search efforts, making visibility difficult and leading to the decision to halt the operation. Ms. Jane, Mr. Paitoon’s 52-year-old sister, remained confident that her brother was still alive. She believed he may have been frightened by the search team and ventured deeper into the forest. "We saw signs that he drank water from the stream, and I believe he’s still out there somewhere," she said. She also expressed her heartfelt thanks to everyone involved in the search for their support and efforts in trying to locate her brother. Despite the search being suspended, the family continued to hold out hope and remained optimistic and then in a miraculous turn of events the man was found alive, only three kilometres from his village. Mr. Paitoon was discovered by relatives, lying exhausted on a rock, in an area previously passed by searchers. In the late afternoon of September 14, a group of family members and community leaders continued the search on foot. During this effort, Mr. Wisanu, a 34-year-old relative, noticed footprints that led him to find Mr. Paitoon in a weakened state, lying next to a rock in the forest. Mr. Paitoon was dressed in a blue long-sleeved shirt and blue shorts but was barefoot. The group helped Mr. Paitoon down from the mountain and contacted others to bring a vehicle to transport him to the hospital. Medical staff performed a thorough examination and provided IV fluids and vitamins to aid his recovery. The discovery of Mr. Paitoon left many puzzled, as several searchers had previously passed through the area without noticing him -- 2024-09-15 Get the ASEAN NOW daily NEWSLETTER - Click HERE to subscribe -

Cowherd Finds Decomposed Body Under Neem Tree in Singburi
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A cowherd discovered a decomposed body under a neem tree in Singburi province, with the remains infested with maggots and emitting a strong odour. The body, which is believed to have been deceased for over a week, was found in a remote area about 800 metres from the nearest road. At approximately 06:30 on 14 September, Lt. Col. Phuriwat Piluek, Deputy Investigator of the Bang Rachan Police Station, was notified by the village head of Moo 5, Pak Thun sub-district, Bang Rachan district, Singburi province. The report indicated that a cowherd had found a dead body in a forested area of Pak Thun. Lt. Col. Phuriwat, accompanied by medical staff from Bang Rachan Hospital and volunteers from the Watana Sing Foundation, responded to the scene. Upon arrival, authorities had to walk about 800 metres into the forest. They discovered the body of Mr. Somkuan (surname withheld), a 56-year-old brick maker and scrap collector. The deceased was found hanging from a neem tree with a black bag slung over his shoulder. The body was in an advanced state of decay, with maggots crawling over it and a pervasive stench. Investigators found 1,500 Baht in cash, a keychain, and a piece of paper in the victim’s two bags, which have been collected as evidence. The cowherd, Mr. Somboon (surname withheld), who found the body, reported that he was searching for a cow that had escaped into the forest. During his search, he came across the body and alerted the village head. Later, Ms. Pikun (surname withheld), the deceased's wife, arrived and said that Mr. Somkhwan had disappeared from the house with his motorcycle on September 7. She had searched for him in various places where she thought Mr. Somkhwan had gone, but could not find him. She believed that Mr. Somkhwan might have been feeling depressed after having an argument with his family, so he left the house to calm down, which led to the incident. Authorities are now working to determine the cause of death and have sent the body for further examination. -- 2024-09-15 Get the ASEAN NOW daily NEWSLETTER - Click HERE to subscribe -

20 Baht Store in Chiang Rai Accused of Price Gouging Amid Floods
Picture courtesy of Khoasod. A 20 Baht store in Chiang Rai has come under fire for taking advantage of the recent floods by significantly raising prices. The store reportedly removed old price tags and hand wrote a new, inflated prices, with a basic squeegee being sold for 299 Baht. Flooding has severely impacted the northern and northeastern regions of Thailand, causing devastation to homes and properties. Many families have lost possessions as floodwaters damaged their homes, and as the water recedes, the costly process of cleaning and renovation becomes inevitable. In the midst of this crisis, a controversy has emerged. The popular Facebook page ‘Je Moi V+’ received complaints about a so-called 20 Baht store in Mae Sai district, Chiang Rai, which was accused of not adhering to its 20 Baht pricing model. The Facebook page clarified that while "20 Baht stores" often sell items starting from 20 Baht, not all products are priced at 20 Baht. However, what outraged customers was the store’s removal of original price tags and replacing them with higher, handwritten prices, exploiting the flood situation. Complainants argued that this price hike feels like exploitation, especially when people are already struggling to recover from the flood. Cleaning equipment is essential post-flood, and while some stores reasonably price certain items higher than 20 Baht, they clearly label the prices. This store, however, is accused of tearing off the old price tags and hiking prices, despite the fact that there is no shortage of such goods in the market. -- 2024-09-15 Get the ASEAN NOW daily NEWSLETTER - Click HERE to subscribe -

The police will take the victims for a physical examination and will work with multidisciplinary professionals to further interrogate both the youths and their families. The couple are reported to use have used threats against the youths, using chains to tie up them up and using the guns to threaten to shot them, causing the youths to be too scared to dare to try to escape. It was also found that the husband had a previous history of illegal detention. Initially, the police charged him with forcing underage labour , hiring foreign workers without a permit, coercion, illegal detention, abduction of minors, and possession of firearms and ammunition without permission.

Police Crack Down on Two Ruthless Loan Shark Networks, Seize Documents and Customer Lists
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. Cyber police have raided and dismantled two major loan shark networks charging exorbitant interest rates of 30-60% per month. The raid resulted in the seizure of numerous customer lists and incriminating documents, with the suspects confessing to their illegal operations. On 14 September 2024, Pol. Lt. Gen. Worawat Watnakornbancha, head of the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau (CCIB), ordered Pol. Maj. Gen. Phumipat Pattharasriwongchai, chief of CCIB Division 5, alongside Deputy Chief Pol. Col. Bancha Srisuk and Pol. Col. Kukiart Wongphan, superintendent of CCIB Division 5, to lead a raid against an online loan shark network. Two locations were searched in Songkhla province. The first raid, authorized by Na Thawi Provincial Court warrant No. 85/2567, targeted a house in Samnak Kham sub-district, Sadao district. Authorities arrested Ms. Kanyapat (surname withheld), 35, the homeowner. A large number of customer lists and loan agreements exceeding legal interest rates were confiscated. The second raid, backed by Songkhla Provincial Court warrant No. C.253/2567, took place in Khuan Lang sub-district, Hat Yai district. Ms. Laksanaporn (surname withheld), 24, was arrested. Her mobile phone, containing numerous customer contacts and records of online loan advertisements, was seized. Pol. Lt. Gen. Worawat revealed that officers had been monitoring two Facebook accounts, one belonging to Ms. Kanyapat and the other to Ms. Laksanaporn. Both were involved in offering illegal loans to customers in their respective areas, with no regard for legal consequences. The interest rates charged were between 30-60% per month, far above the legal limit. After gathering sufficient evidence, the police secured search warrants, arrested the suspects, and confiscated mobile phones and loan-related documents. Both women confessed to their activities. The suspects now face charges of "operating a personal loan business by providing capital and lending to others without a license" and "charging interest rates higher than legally allowed." They have been handed over to investigators for further legal proceedings. -- 2024-09-15 Get the ASEAN NOW daily NEWSLETTER - Click HERE to subscribe -

Springfield, Ohio man reported Haitian migrants snatching geese out of park 2 weeks ago
I'm surprised this story got so much traction. People have been repeating the urban legend about immigrants eating pet dogs and cats for at least 150 years, although the early versions centered on Chinese immigrants. My father said when he was a child, he heard stories about dogs and cats hangng in the kitchens of Chinese restaurants. When I was about ten, I recall a local controversy arose when the city animal shelter refused to allow a Chinese family to adopt a rescue dog because the staff was afraid they would eat the dog. Often when pets disappeared, people would blame it on Chinese immigrants. Stories about homeless people eating ducks and geese taken from city ponds have also circulated for years. The story about the Haitians in Springfield is particularly weak, a repetition of third- and fourth-hand rumors. Woman Behind Springfield Haitian Immigrants 'Eating Pets' Rumor Speaks Out (msn.com) -

PM Paetongtarn's Policy Statement critisised as Echo of Thaksin’s Vision
Imagine if her dad suddenly drops dead or something. She will be completely lost. The entire family is <deleted> without the old man. Nobody in that family besides him is capable of running the show. That's the good news I guess. Only a few more years of these <deleted> and then when the old man is finished it will be over for the shinawatras in politics.
