Driver in Shock as Massive Tree Crushes Car: Miraculous Escape Credited to Amulet
Picture from responders. A 43-year-old woman narrowly escaped what could have been a fatal accident when a massive tree, believed to be nearly 100 years old, toppled onto her car, crushing it almost entirely. Miraculously, the driver emerged unscathed and credits her survival to a "Luang Pu Thuat" amulet, a revered talisman she always carries with her. The terrifying incident occurred in the wake of Typhoon Yagi, which passed through Vietnam and Laos, triggering severe thunderstorms across the northeastern regions of Thailand, including Nakhon Phanom. The heavy rains and strong winds caused several large trees along the banks of the Mekong River to collapse, including the century-old flamboyant tree that fell onto the woman's car. The victim, Ms. Krisana, a contractor who normally resides in another province, was visiting relatives in Nakhon Phanom when the accident took place. She had pulled over on Sunthorn Vijit Road, near the Nakhon Phanom Provincial Police Station, to take a phone call as the rain intensified. Unbeknownst to her, the towering tree next to the road was already on the verge of collapsing. "It all happened so fast. I didn’t even realise that the tree had fallen until it hit the rear of my car," Ms. Krisana recalled, still visibly shaken. "I was in complete shock. If it weren't for the amulet of Luang Pu Thuat from Wat Paknam that I always carry with me, I might not have survived." The amulet, which Ms. Krisana has kept close to her for years, is believed to provide protection and safety to its wearer. Although the car was severely damaged, with the roof crushed, Ms. Krisana miraculously walked away without a single injury. A passing motorcyclist who witnessed the aftermath quickly rushed to help her out of the wreckage. In response to the incident, the Nakhon Phanom Municipality dispatched a team of workers to clear the fallen tree and ensure that the road was safe for traffic. Authorities have also issued warnings to residents and motorists to exercise caution, especially around areas with large, aging trees that may be at risk of falling due to deteriorating root structures. "We are urging the public to avoid parking near large trees during heavy rains and strong winds, as these conditions increase the likelihood of trees collapsing," a municipal spokesperson said. "Many of these trees are over 100 years old, and their roots are weakening with age, making them hazardous during storms." As for Ms. Krisana, the municipality is reviewing her case for possible compensation. Local officials noted that regulations allow for compensation in instances where natural disasters or public infrastructure, such as trees, cause damage to life or property. For now, Ms. Krisana is simply grateful to have survived what could have been a deadly accident, attributing her survival to a combination of luck and the protection offered by her cherished amulet. "Cars can be replaced," she said, "but life is irreplaceable. I'm just thankful to be alive." -- 2024-09-07 Get the ASEAN NOW daily NEWSLETTER - Click HERE to subscribe -

Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part II
I disagree, I pretty certain we will see a surge in foreigners filing tax returns as a result of all of this. We've already had numerous reports of people consulting with "tax experts". Just as an aside, you seem to base a lot of your opinions solely on the things you have seen personally and you take those anecdotal findings as fact......I think that's quite dangerous. -

Trump Has 'Very' Rocky Moment On Fox News As He Repeatedly Denies Being Weird
So next election we simply have two appointed avatars that never appear in public? If you knew anything about anything you would see how absurd Kamala's approach is and it is basically showing contempt to those she would rule. More opacity isn't what politics need. -

Can you defend yourself?
A very wise nightclub bouncer friend of mine, who had been forced into many fights with drunk customers over the years, once told me that the best thing to do in a confrontation/fight is run. He said there is usually damage on both sides of any fight. So the best way to avoid losing something (physically, financially, legally, criminally) is to avoid the fight.
