Crime Man With Psychiatric History Stabs Villager in Brutal Attack
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A village in Si Sa Ket province was left in shock after a 22-year-old man with a history of mental illness violently attacked a neighbour with a butcher’s knife, leaving the victim with serious injuries that required over 80 stitches. The attacker, recently released from prison, was swiftly arrested by police. The incident occurred on 8 June in Ban Nong Saen, Bua Noi Subdistrict, Kanthararom District. The suspect, identified as Mr Jay Benzine, reportedly stormed into the home of 46-year-old Mr Pramote Chinnawong and launched an unprovoked knife attack while the victim was cleaning his house. Mr Pramote recounted the terrifying experience to reporters. “He just walked in with a meat cleaver and started hacking at me for no reason. We had spoken normally just before, so I had no idea something like this would happen,” he said. The victim sustained multiple injuries to his head and body and required extensive medical treatment, narrowly surviving thanks to the quick intervention of local residents. According to Mr Pramote, the suspect had previously served two prison terms for attempted murder and had been out of jail for just over a month before reoffending. He also noted that the suspect had not been taking his prescribed psychiatric medication, and this seemed to worsen his behaviour in recent weeks. “This is the third time he’s attacked someone in the village,” Mr Pramote added. “He’s dangerous. Even if he’s mentally ill, he needs to be detained and treated. People in the community are scared, and anyone could be his next victim.” An eyewitness, 62-year-old Ms Boon-ngan Phanthuwilai, described the horrific moment she saw the attack unfold. “Jay wouldn’t stop. He was hitting Pramote with the knife until he collapsed. I screamed at him to stop, but he ignored me. Thankfully, other villagers came and pulled him away just in time.” Police Colonel Thatchaphong Promma, superintendent of Kanthararom Police Station, confirmed that officers responded swiftly and arrested Mr Jay at his home shortly after the incident. Given his psychiatric condition, he is being held in police custody under medical supervision. However, the police have formally charged him with attempted murder. Colonel Thatchaphong stated that the case will proceed according to legal procedures, with the final outcome depending on the court’s assessment, including psychiatric evaluations. The case has reignited debate over how to handle mentally ill individuals with violent tendencies, particularly those with prior criminal convictions. Concerned residents have called for better mental health care and stricter monitoring of at-risk individuals after release from prison. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-06-12 -

Economy Thailand Approaches Debt Ceiling Amid Economic Concerns
Picture courtesy of Kasikorn Research Center Thailand's opposition is sounding alarms over the country's looming debt ceiling. The People's Party (PP) cautions that public debt, set to swell to 13.5 trillion baht in the next fiscal year, could see debt constituting 69% of GDP. This narrowing margin leaves only about 210 billion baht available for additional borrowing. Opposition MP Sirikanya Tansakun highlights the potential need to increase the public debt ceiling. She calls for clarity from the Ministry of Finance on managing this financial pinch. With tax revenue missing last year's targets by nearly 80 billion baht, reliance has fallen on dividends from state enterprises like PTT Plc and the Government Lottery Office to bridge gaps. In the current fiscal year 2025, which began in October, tax revenue continues to lag, with a shortfall of 33 billion baht in excise tax alone. The pressure mounts on state enterprises to generate 26.5% more revenue to compensate, sparking concerns over their sustainability. Among the factors for declining revenue is the sharp decrease in tobacco excise tax by almost 20 billion baht since 2017, owed to the rise in illicit e-cigarettes and smuggled cigarettes. Meanwhile, government expenditure is projected at 3.78 trillion baht for the upcoming fiscal year, heightening concerns on how to finance such vast spending. The central government contingency budget is likely to be tapped into, due to a mismatch in planned versus actual interest payments on past borrowings. Instead of the intended 11.3% interest, the government has only paid around 8%, dipping into treasury reserves to make up for the shortfall. In response to these financial challenges, a proposal from the opposition suggests slashing the 2026 budget by 50 billion baht. However, Chanin Rungtanakiat, the House committee's spokesman, urges a deeper understanding of the necessity behind the government's proposed spending, rather than arbitrary cuts. As Thailand sees its fiscal capabilities tested, key economic strategies and financial policies are critical to sustaining the nation's balance between expenditure and revenue.

I did it in a car in a small carpark behind shops in Loi Kroh road Chiang Mai. Hope no one did video. It was night. Maybe we could start a new thread - "The Most Public Places You have Performed The Deed in Thailand"?
