Accident Worker Killed as Telephone Mast Collapses During Dismantling
Picture courtesy of Amarin. A 37-year-old worker was killed when a 48-metre-high telephone mast he was dismantling collapsed, crushing him to death. At approximately 15:30 on 25 April, officers from Si Somdet Police Station received reports of a fatal incident involving a falling telecommunications mast at the entrance to Ban Phosai Noi in Phosai subdistrict, Si Somdet district, Roi Et province. Police, accompanied by medical staff from Si Somdet Hospital, were dispatched to the scene. The site was located in a lemongrass field adjacent to paddy fields, where a dismantling operation was underway. Emergency personnel found the body of Mr Amrit 37, lying face-up at the scene. He suffered multiple fractures, and a safety harness was still attached to his waist. A preliminary examination was carried out at the site before the body was released to the family for religious rites. According to Mr Samian, 33, who witnessed the incident, the deceased was working up the mast and had been dismantling the 48-metre-high mast section by section. Approximately 10 metres had already been removed over two days of work. During the operation, a gripping device securing the sling cable, holding the mast in position, reportedly slipped, causing the mast to collapse and fall, with the victim still attached to it. Authorities are continuing their investigation into the incident. Adapted by Asean Now from Amarin 2025-04-27. -

Trump admits getting fooled
I'm also an American and I sometimes think the same thing. I don't think they are idiots as much as they are just very gullible, and America seems to be a nation that just very easily buys into a narrative, and a well crafted level of fiction, which Trump is very, very good at creating. I don't think the man's particularly intelligent. I actually think he's rather dull, but he's a genius when it comes to distorting truth and creating an alternative narrative that his followers just gobble up like the most wonderful dessert they've ever tasted. I do have some friends that will come right out and say the man is a butthead, he's an idiot, and he's an absolute clown, but I like his policies. Those are the Republicans I admire. The ones who absolutely refuse to criticize his policies, or his behavior and total lack of dignity, no matter how ridiculous and far out it becomes, have absolutely no respect from me on any level. With many people, once they got attached to a theory, it was hard to get them detached. They’d screen out unhelpful facts, invent favorable ones, and ignore contradictions in their own claims. Look at those Sandy Hook, multiple fraud convictions, and Jan. 6th truthers, babbling about false flags and crisis actors and all the rest. When people were motivated enough to believe something, they were going to believe it no matter what. There was no such thing as a bridge too far. -

Trump admits getting fooled
You very well might be right, there's no question there's a lot of stuff going on behind the scenes that we don't know about. Why Trump has been sucking up to Putin at the level that he has been is just a mystery and an astonishing thing to witness. Trump is doing absolutely anything but making America great again, he's diminishing America by the day, and making it less relevant. -

Crime Drunken Adopted Son Kills Elderly Parents with Axe Before Taking Own Life in Nan Province
Picture courtesy of Amarin. A 41-year-old man brutally killed his elderly adoptive parents before hanging himself, in a horrifying incident that has shocked the local community in Nan province. The incident unfolded at a house in Ban Pa Tong Don Sai Thong, Moo 8, Sila Phet subdistrict, Pua district. Mr Thamchinda “Pong” Nakai, aged 41, allegedly used an axe to strike his 80-year-old adoptive father, Mr Inphai Nakai, fatally as he slept. He then turned the weapon on his adoptive mother, Mrs Phai Nakai, also 80, who was preparing chilli paste in the kitchen, killing her as well. Following the double murder, Mr Pong hanged himself in his bedroom. A chilling message he had scrawled on the wall, cursing others, was discovered nearby. Neighbours raised the alarm after a local frog seller found the house unusually quiet when delivering an order. Concerned, neighbours forced entry and found Mr Inphai dead on his bed with severe head injuries. In the kitchen, Mrs Phai was found lifeless, beside a mortar and pestle, with similar wounds to the head. Upon further inspection, Mr Pong’s body was discovered in his bedroom, hanging by a piece of cloth. Relatives told reporters that both Mr Inphai and Mrs Phai had their own children from previous marriages before they met. Mr Pong was taken in and raised as their own after being abandoned at birth in a hospital. The couple treated him as their biological son, while their other children moved away to start their own families. According to relatives, Mr Pong was an alcoholic who frequently argued with Mr Inphai. He had mortgaged the family home and land, and it is believed mounting financial pressure and the prospect of losing the property may have driven him to commit the murders. It was also revealed that Mr Pong had written the ominous message on the wall as early as 16 April but had covered it with a cloth, hiding it from view. During the recent Songkran festival, he had asked relatives to take a family photo, stating cryptically that it would be needed later, a request that, at the time, raised no suspicions. Mr Saenoh Kongkhun, the village assistant headman and a neighbour, said he had noticed nothing unusual on the morning of the incident. He had seen Mrs Phai picking chillies in the garden as usual, and no disturbances were heard from the house. Police are continuing their investigation. Adapted by Asean Now from Amarin 2025-04-27.
