Towards Greener Pastures: Thailand Advances on Its Smart City Initiative
Yesterday, Thailand solidified its commitment to the sustainable future. Experts gathered at the Thailand Smart City Expo 2025 seminar, deliberating on a more green, open, smart and life-enhancing cities blueprint for the country. Spearheaded by the Nation Group’s PostToday and Springnews, the event took place on 12 November, attracting both public officials and private sector leaders. A highlight of the meeting was the emphasis on the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC) presented by Eastern Economic Corridor Office Secretary Chula Sukmanop. The vision for EEC includes the creation of the EEC Capital City, an urban hub drawing on artificial intelligence and digital platforms to foster a greener environment. Investment attraction was centred on bio-circular-green industries, underlying the commitment to sustainable practices. Bangkok Governor, Chadchart Sittipunt, echoed similar sentiments as he underscored the capital’s adoption of smart technology for better governance and public demand handling. The Governor referred to the AI-driven Traffy Fondue app, a ground-breaking initiative improving the transparency and efficiency of the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration. Sittipunt noted, “A real smart city means the adoption of appropriate technology which allows people to solve issues equally.” Ushering more transparency and public engagement, open data initiatives are enabling residents to track government budgets and policies online. Further supplementing this effort, Digital Economy and Society (DES) Minister Prasert Jantararuangthong revealed the City Data Platform project. The initiative aims to gather essential data from 175 cities to help address urban challenges, from city planning to energy and transport issues. The Thai government is also seeking collaboration with the Board of Investment to draw big tech companies to the country, boosting Thailand’s stature as a regional hub for smart, sustainable city innovation. This commitment to strengthening smart city infrastructure aims to improve data security, lift living standards, and enhance Thailand's global competitiveness in the long run.

Lions and Tigers and Bears Oh My - How will Trump's Fascist Dictatorship Affect You?
Biden talked a lot of smack about the Saudis, and then oil prices rose, Biden went hat in hand to Saudis begging for them to increase production. They told him to go piss up a rope. Nothing to do with Trump, you just making stuff up as always. -

Retention Crisis in UK Armed Forces as Families Warn of Impact from VAT on Private Schools
Yes they are. These guys are mercenary freeloaders. Willing to stop dinghy people invading the UK on a daily basis? " I can't - its agAInst dA lAW" Willing to participate in unethical middle eastern escapades that don't benefit the UK population in any way? Zero hesitation If they want to run around foreign countries they should take that into account and pay for the own kids schooling - with ZERO subsidies. If they're willing, as an organisation, to take a stand against their the ongoing dinghy invasion then maybe. However, defending the UK should be their number one priority - it's what taxpayyers expect AT MINIMUM Unbelieveable thesde freeloaders can't get their heads around that. Typical ME, ME, ME merchants - like politicians but without any brains -

Thaksin's Hospital Stay Under Scrutiny as Agency Delays Inquiry
File photo courtesy: Facebook Thairath TV Thaksin Shinawatra's controversial six-month hospital stay has caught the attention of Thailand's National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC), but a formal inquiry isn't likely until February, according to Jakkrit Tanlert, an assistant NACC secretary-general. The hospital arrangement is under suspicion as a possible ruse to avoid prison time, raising questions of privilege and propriety. Despite setting up an ad hoc committee to gather evidence, the NACC has hit a roadblock. Information from Police Hospital, where Thaksin stayed supposedly as a critically ill patient, is scant. Beyond receiving two million baht in hospital bills, the committee is waiting for detailed disclosures on Thaksin’s health status and medical treatments. This delay occurs against the backdrop of public demand for transparency. The Network of Students and People for Thailand Reform questioned the apparent leniency afforded to Thaksin, especially following an eight-year sentence for abuse of power, later reduced to one year by royal pardon. His stay at Police Hospital, thought to be orchestrated to evade prison cells, remains clouded in secrecy under the guise of privacy concerns. Meanwhile, Thaksin, the influential figure within the Pheu Thai Party, has returned from 17 years abroad and recently visited Udorn Thani. There, he rallied support for Pheu Thai candidate Saravut Petpanomporn in the upcoming provincial race against rival Khanisorn Khurirang, scheduled for 24th November. Udorn Thani, a stronghold of the Red Shirt movement and pro-Pheu Thai sympathisers, largely backed Thaksin’s candidates in the previous general elections. This political mobilisation highlights Thaksin's enduring influence in Thai politics, as the nation awaits the graft agency's decision. Until then, the matter of his hospitalisation and justice remains unresolved, fuelling debate over fairness and corruption within the system, reported Thai Newsroom. -- 2024-11-13
