Latest developments and discussion of recent events in the Ukraine War
US, NATO have repeatedly warned Tehran against shipments Seriously, are they kidding? Iran is sanctioned already and I very much doubt the US public will accept some "Gulf of Tonkin" excuse to go to war against Iran. IMO all the US/ NATO do by issuing such statements is showing the world how impotent they are when it comes to Iran. Is NATO even allowed to actually do anything against Iran- it's a long way from the Atlantic? -

I believe he is referring to another incident some time back and his comment is fair. Yours isn't. -

Torrential Rain Floods Pattaya: City Fights to Stay Afloat
Slightly off topic but I nearly hit a woman catching fish flapping in the road when I drove home yesterday (Tuesday). I guess the OP refers to the heavy rains Sunday evening..... did it drain off more quickly or are all the drains that have been laid a failure? No standing water on Buakhao , nor 3rd on Tuesday despite getting more rain. -

How about Canada invades the USA to protect you from these people? Canada invading the US is as likely as Belarus invading Russia. Perhaps try a better comparison next time. -

Massive Thailand Crackdown: 177,000 Myanmar Workers Arrested
Picture courtesy: ELEVEN Myanmar In an operation spanning 85 days, Thai authorities have arrested 177,804 Myanmar workers as part of a broader crackdown on illegal labour. Taking place from 5th June to 28th August, this campaign saw inspections at 16,776 workplaces, factories, and construction sites across Thailand. Overall, authorities apprehended 232,906 illegal workers during this period, according to the Thai Ministry of Labour. Breakdowns of arrests highlight Myanmar nationals clearly leading with 177,804 detained, followed by 34,620 Cambodians and 13,482 Laotians. Among the smaller numbers were 145 Vietnamese and 6,855 other nationals. In addition to the mass arrests, officials also targeted 591 workplaces and apprehended a further 1,553 illegal migrant workers, highlighting 933 Myanmar nationals among them. Cambodia contributed to 224 of these arrests, with Laos and Vietnam adding 203 and 26 workers respectively. Penalties were issued to the employers and employees alike. Illegally employed foreign workers face fines from 5,000 to 50,000 Baht and subsequent deportation. These workers will also face a two-year ban from re-entry to Thailand for employment purposes. For employers, the penalties are severe — fines range from 10,000 to 100,000 Baht per illegal worker, and repeat offenders may be incarcerated for up to one year with fines stretching between 50,000 and 200,000 Baht. These employers could also face a three-year ban from hiring any migrant workers. The Thai Ministry of Labour is taking serious steps to ensure compliance with labour laws, aiming to regulate the workforce and curb illegal employment. This extensive operation reflects the government's strong stance against illegal labour, reinforcing the necessity for proper documentation and legal pathways for employment within the country. -- 2024-09-04 Get the ASEAN NOW daily NEWSLETTER - Click HERE to subscribe -

Torrential Rain Floods Pattaya: City Fights to Stay Afloat
Yeah, Only unprepared because they did not do much last year except catch free fish on the flooded streets. If they had good drainage to the sea it would not have accumulated so much so fast nor would it have taken several hours to dissipate. -
