Human Traffickers Cram Migrant Workers into Van: 2 Dead, 8 in Critical Condition
Police Lieutenant Colonel Phakdi Tan-anukul of Lang Suan Police Station, Chumphon Province, received a report at approximately 12.00 on October 17, that a group of unconscious individuals had been found in a forest near Khao Seka Wanaram Temple, Village 4, Wang Tako Subdistrict, Lang Suan District. Upon arriving at the scene, officers discovered two dead bodies and eight severely injured people among a total of ten individuals scattered in the area. All victims were migrant workers, later confirmed to be of Rohingya origin. The police, along with rescue teams from Saichon Rescue Foundation, immediately transported the deceased and injured to Lang Suan Hospital and Thung Tako Hospital for treatment and autopsies. Investigations at the scene revealed numerous water bottles and deep tyre marks, suggesting a heavily loaded vehicle had been present. Abbot Phra Athikarn Thada Kititharo of Khao Seka Wanaram Temple stated that earlier that morning, he noticed a group of people acting erratically near the temple. Upon closer inspection, he found several individuals in a distressed state, with some already dead. He promptly notified the authorities. Local residents reported seeing a covered pickup truck in the area, but thought it was merely transporting goods. They were unaware of the tragic events unfolding until later. Preliminary investigations suggest that the National Police Bureau had recently ordered stricter checkpoints in the area. To avoid detection, it is believed the human traffickers, transporting Rohingya workers from Mae Sot District in Tak Province to Songkhla Province, diverted from the main road into the forest to evade a checkpoint. The victims had been crammed into a closed pickup truck with no ventilation, leading to two deaths due to suffocation. According to an interpreter, the group consisted of 26 Rohingya workers who had been smuggled from Myanmar’s Rakhine State. After a harrowing 10 day boat journey along the Salween River, followed by a 10 day trek, they arrived in Mae Sot. Nearly 100 people had initially gathered there, but only those who could pay the traffickers were crammed into the van for the duration of the journey with no food or proper ventilation. The group had been on the road for a day without food before the traffickers, realising that some of the migrants were dead or critically injured, abandoned them in the forest near the temple. They left the 10 victims behind and continued their journey toward Songkhla with the remaining migrants. The police are continuing their investigation to track down the traffickers and ensure that those responsible for this tragedy are brought to justice. Picture from responders. -- 2024-10-18 -

Nattawut Praises Srettha for Championing Marriage Equality
Thailand - Nattawut Saikua, an advisor to the Prime Minister, took to Facebook to reflect on Prime Minister Srettha "Pe Nid" Thavisin’s early support for marriage equality. During the last election campaign, Srettha openly embraced the concept of equal marriage rights, showing a clear commitment to the cause. To discuss this further, Nattawut arranged a meeting between Pe Nid and young activists involved in Bangkok Pride and other advocacy initiatives. They met at a shopping mall near Siam, where initial hesitations were quickly overcome, paving the way for open and heartfelt discussions. Activists initially worried that Srettha might simply be paying lip service to the issue. Pe Nid, new to political gatherings, was also cautious. However, as the conversation unfolded, mutual sincerity emerged, leading to a hopeful and genuine exchange of ideas. One activist asked, “If Pe Nid becomes Prime Minister, will he truly push for marriage equality?” Although Srettha has since left office, Thailand’s Marriage Equality Bill was indeed passed into law, reflecting the outcome of those conversations, reported Siam Rath. Nattawut noted that current Prime Minister Ink shares a similar stance on this issue and has been engaging with activists as well. The activists expressed their gratitude to Srettha by organizing a gathering at a green space transformed into a rainbow garden at a Sansiri estate. Pe Nid’s supporters joined the event, which featured casual conversations, food, and drinks in a relaxed setting. Veteran equality activist Aunt Lek voiced her appreciation, stating, “After all these years of fighting, I finally saw a leader like Prime Minister Srettha who had the courage and commitment to make it happen.” Picture courtesy: Siam Rath -- 2024-10-18 -

I met Mr Independent
In Pattaya mostly see guys dragging their girlfriends around 24/7, for some it's just an LT, others it's a monthly paid one. For a lot of men their partner is a rent a friend, who don't like being on their own. Personally i like being independent, see friends and girls when i want, I don't drag anyone round- 1

Blinken Considers Post-War Gaza Plan After U.S. Election Amid Tensions and Opposition
That's understating it by miles. Any involvement by israel in a plan is toxic, and will likely be rejected out of hand. Gazans have not seen 40,000 of their fellows blown to bits by American bombs to accept being under continued israeli oppression, collective punishment, and everlasting humiliation to accept that. They only have to look at the West Bank to see what israeli control looks like, and it's unacceptable. -
