Sattahip Navy Personnel Save Woman Attempting Suicide on Pedestrian Bridge
Picture and video from bystanders. A group of Royal Thai Navy personnel intervened to save a distraught young woman attempting to jump from a pedestrian bridge on Sukhumvit Road near the Navy Recruit Training Centre in Sattahip, Chonburi. The incident occurred at 13.45 on December 8, when Lieutenant Commander Jirasak Sakphan, from the Navy’s Finance Department, was traveling to Pattaya with Petty Officer First Class Montri Charoenrit and three naval cadets when they witnessed the incident. While stopped at a red light, the group spotted a 25-year-old woman sitting on the railing of the bridge, sobbing uncontrollably and dangling her legs over the edge. Recognising the urgency of the situation, they immediately parked their vehicle and called the police and emergency services. Lieutenant Commander Jirasak and Petty Officer Montri positioned themselves below the bridge to engage the woman in conversation, attempting to calm her. Meanwhile, the three naval cadets, Dhanaitep Chusri, Samrit Kumwong, and Tachnucha Sontwanet, rushed onto the bridge to prepare for a potential rescue. Despite their efforts to soothe her, the woman showed no signs of calming down and appeared ready to jump. Acting quickly, Lieutenant Commander Jirasak distracted her by diverting her attention, giving the cadets a crucial moment to act. In a coordinated move, they lunged forward and pulled her back to safety, albeit with some difficulty, as she continued crying hysterically. Local residents revealed that the woman had been arguing heatedly with her foreign boyfriend over his infidelity, which had driven her to attempt suicide. Thanks to the quick thinking and teamwork of the navy personnel, the woman’s life was saved. She was handed over to authorities for further support and counselling. If you or anyone you know is in emotional distress, please contact the Samaritans of Thailand 24-hour hotline: 02 713 6791 (English), 02 713 6793 (Thai) or the Thai Mental Health Hotline at 1323 (Thai). Please also contact your friends or relatives at this time if you have feelings of loneliness, stress or depression. Seek help. -- 2024-12-10 ScreenRecording_12-09-2024 17-08-36_1.mp4 -

Do you wear a helmet when riding a motorcycle in Thailand?
He's expecting you to be courteous and move over to your left slightly so he can join the lane safely. You're on a bike, you don't need to hog the lane, in Thailand when riding motorbike we share the lane with others. I'm constantly riding from the left to the right of my lane allowing others to share the road with me. -

Far-right activists from Germany spent US election day at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago
What a bunch of nonsense get real man! Trump has lied on thousand of occasions! Claiming otherwise is a sad joke. Who cares everyone lies! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_or_misleading_statements_by_Donald_Trump BTW: I would have voted for Trump in all elections! The Dems were lying as well but maybe not as often as Trump, however Trump is far better for the US then Harris IMHO. A real Gem : In April 2022, Trump stated at a rally in Selma, North Carolina: "I think I'm the most honest human being, perhaps, that God ever created," prompting laughter from the crowd.[587] Let us know if you believe this last statement! -

EV Owners Frustrated as Samui Ferries Restrict EV Transport Over New Year Period
File picture for reference only. Electric vehicle (EV) owners planning to visit Koh Samui for the New Year holidays have been left disappointed following an announcement by Raja Ferry PLC that it will temporarily suspend ferry services for EVs due to safety concerns. The company cited risks associated with EV batteries, particularly the potential for overheating and fires, as the reason for the decision. The announcement, first posted on the “Hia Kub Rod” Facebook page, has caused concern among EV owners both on Koh Samui and those planning to visit during the festive season. Raja Ferry stated that the suspension is intended to ensure the safety of passengers and their belongings, sparking uncertainty for EV users seeking alternatives to access the island. In contrast, Seatran Ferry, another ferry operator servicing Koh Samui, continues to allow EVs onboard, albeit with additional precautions. Seatran Ferry requires EV owners to complete a detailed form acknowledging the risks associated with battery transportation. The company has also designated specific parking areas on its ferries for EVs to facilitate rapid response in case of emergencies. The acknowledgment form includes a disclaimer stating: “Passengers understand and accept the risks associated with transporting vehicles on the ferry, including potential damage to EVs. The company will only be held liable for incidents caused by negligence on the part of employees or representatives.” EV owners who sign the form can board Seatran Ferries as usual, with their vehicles receiving extra monitoring by ferry staff. Despite this option, Raja Ferry’s suspension has caused significant inconvenience, as it leaves only one operator available for EV transportation. This limited service is expected to result in longer wait times and congestion, particularly during the busy New Year period. Tourism businesses on Koh Samui are bracing for a potential economic impact. With EV owners facing logistical challenges, some may opt to change their travel plans and visit other destinations, potentially leading to a decline in tourist revenue for the island during the peak holiday season. -- 2024-12-10 -

There is a far simpler way. Open a post from the poster one wants to ignore, hover the mouse pointer over the user name ( don't click on it ), the profile page is opened , go to bottom right and click on "ignore" and do what the instructions say.
