Accident Surin: Farmer 61, Killed by Lightning While Checking His Rice Field
Picture courtesy of Workpoint. An incident occurred in the rural district of Sangkha, Surin province, where a 61-year-old man was fatally struck by lightning while tending to his rice field. The victim, identified as Mr Jamnaeng, was a resident of Phon Chai village, Moo 5, in Ban Chob subdistrict. Emergency responders and police were dispatched to the scene after reports emerged that a man had been struck by lightning during a storm. Authorities arrived to find Mr Jamnaeng lying lifeless near a small hut in the middle of a rice field. A medical team confirmed that he had no pulse and had died instantly from the lightning strike. His body was later transferred to Sangkha Hospital for a post-mortem examination before being released to the family for funeral rites. Speaking from the family home, where the funeral is being held, Mr Jamnaeng’s wife, Mrs San 62, shared details of the incident. She explained that she and her husband normally worked the rice fields together, but that day she had stayed home due to a leg injury. Heavy rain had fallen in the afternoon, prompting Mr Jamnaeng to check on the fields to ensure water levels didn’t damage the young rice plants. By 15.30, when he hadn’t returned home for lunch, Mrs San grew concerned and went to the field to look for him. There, she found her husband unconscious in the hut and immediately called relatives in the village for help. Rescue workers arrived shortly after, but it was too late, he had already succumbed to the lightning strike. The hut, located in the middle of the field, stood beside a large “Tae” tree. Officials noted signs of a lightning strike on the tree’s trunk, and broken wooden debris scattered in the area confirmed the severity of the incident. The tragic death serves as a sombre reminder of the dangers faced by farmers working in open fields during stormy weather. Local authorities have urged rural communities to take extra precautions during the rainy season. Adapted by Asean Now from Workpoint 2025-05-25. -

Crime Scandal Erupts Over Vietnamese Durian Mixed with Thai Fruit in Export Fraud to China
Picture courtesy of Khomchadluek A scandal has rocked Thailand’s durian export industry following revelations that Vietnamese durian is being illicitly mixed with Thai durian before being exported to China. The operation, allegedly orchestrated by Chinese investors, is believed to be one of the causes behind the recent decline in durian prices and reduced demand from Chinese buyers. Rayong MP Phongsathorn Sornpetchanarin led a joint task force of government officials and local citizens in a raid on a rubberwood warehouse in Klaeng district, Rayong province, after receiving a tip-off. Upon inspection, they discovered two refrigerated container trucks, one filled with peeled frozen durian from Vietnam and another empty truck apparently prepared to transport the produce to Laem Chabang port. The Chinese national present, identified as the owner of the cargo, failed to provide documentation for the import and transportation of the Vietnamese durian, claiming the papers were at a processing plant in Chanthaburi. Mr Phongsathorn has since filed an official complaint with police inspector Pol Lt Sayan Panjarak at Ban Kram Police Station. He is expected to meet with the provincial governor to discuss decisive action against the perpetrators. Insiders say Vietnamese durians have previously faced strict inspection in China due to chemical residue, especially cadmium, leading to import restrictions and plummeting domestic prices. To bypass these controls and raise export value fraudulently, some traders have turned to blending the Vietnamese produce with Thailand’s premium durian. Police are now gathering evidence to prosecute those involved in the smuggling operation, with the goal of protecting the international reputation of Thai durian. The incident has intensified fears among Thai growers. During the operation on the night of 22 May, officials found three containers involved: 1. Truck registration Chonburi, container number FSCU 5869275: fully loaded with peeled frozen durian and sealed with tag number P15199. 2. Truck registration Chonburi, container number FSCU 5910933: also fully loaded with peeled frozen durian. 3. Truck registration Chonburi, container number OTPU 6488932: empty container, unsealed. One of the drivers initially refused to disclose his purpose, claiming only to be transporting an empty container. Under questioning, he admitted that his employer from Laem Chabang had instructed him to pick up a durian shipment. The scandal has raised concerns about a potential oversupply of Thai durians as Chinese buyers reduce their orders. With prices falling, farmers are at risk of serious financial losses. Some fear a repeat of previous years when plummeting prices drove some growers to desperate measures, including suicide due to overwhelming debts. Adapted by Asean Now from Khomchadluek 2025-05-25. -
