Pattaya Crackdown: Suspects Nabbed in Late-Night Vape Bust

Delaying Cataract Surgery - Any associated dangers?
Apart from the symptoms, a cataract should be operated when it's "ripe". If you wait too long it gets calcified and hard, that makes it more difficult to operate. Too early, is difficult, too. (explanation from my eye doctor) -

Aircon verses Underfloor cooling
Is this a JOKE, or something? Water vapor from a very hot and humid climate like Thailand will condense on the floor, then? And then, you plan to actually walk on it without slipping and sliding around? And then, where does the condensate drain? This has GOT to be the craziest idea of the year.... No....the Century. As an added touch, not make the floors of that super slippery faux/real marble tile that is used in China. Very dangerous . -

Thailand Launches Pilot Police Stations to Ensure Detainee Safety
Pictures courtesy of Matichon. Royal Thai Police (RTP), in collaboration with the United Kingdom, has launched a pilot police station programme aimed at improving detainee management and ensuring compliance with international human rights standards. The initiative seeks to eliminate incidents of torture and deaths in custody, enhancing both detainee safety and police accountability. The project was officially unveiled on 19 March by National Police Inspector General Pol. Gen. Thatchai Pitanilabut. The launch event, held at Pathumwan Police Station, was attended by representatives from Thailand’s National Human Rights Commission, British diplomatic officials, and law enforcement experts from the UK Home Office, Devon & Cornwall Police, and Northumbria Police. The initiative is part of a broader reform effort by Pol. Gen. Kittirat Phanphet, National Police Commissioner, who has tasked the Inspector General’s Office with implementing the project. The Royal Thai Police has partnered with UK authorities to adapt international best practices and lessons learned to the Thai context, ensuring compliance with the Prevention and Suppression of Torture and Enforced Disappearance Act 2022. Under the scheme, officers from Pathumwan Police Station (Bangkok) and Mueang Chanthaburi Police Station have undergone specialised training in Northumbria, UK. Additionally, UK law enforcement experts have been invited to Thailand to provide guidance on modern detainee management techniques. The programme is built on the principle of “Change by Design”, focusing on systematic reform in detainee custody. The key measures include: • Safer detention facilities – Holding cells have been redesigned to ensure a secure environment, with CCTV surveillance operating 24/7. • Transparent arrest procedures – All interactions between detainees and police must take place in designated custody areas. • Comprehensive detainee assessments – Upon detention, suspects undergo physical and psychological health evaluations to identify any pre-existing conditions that could pose health risks. • Detailed custody records – All detainee information, including personal belongings, risk assessments, and detention logs, is meticulously documented. • Senior officer oversight – A chain of command ensures that detention procedures are monitored and reviewed. A crucial goal of the pilot programme is to prevent deaths and mistreatment in police custody. The new procedures prioritise detainee welfare, particularly for those with chronic illnesses, injuries, or drug dependencies. Immediate medical intervention will be provided when necessary, preventing avoidable fatalities. The success of the pilot stations in Pathumwan and Mueang Chanthaburi has demonstrated that these reforms significantly improve detainee safety. Moving forward, the RTP aims to roll out the new detention protocols across Metropolitan Police Division 6 before expanding the system nationwide. Speaking at the event, Pol. Gen. Thatchai emphasised that the RTP will continue to integrate technology into its detainee management systems. Plans are already in place to develop specialist software to track and analyse detainee data, ensuring further accountability and transparency. This groundbreaking initiative marks a major step forward in aligning Thai law enforcement practices with global human rights standards, reinforcing the RTP’s commitment to public safety, legal compliance, and ethical policing. -- 2025-03-20
