Man Burned to Death in BMW Fire – Charred Remains Found Behind the Wheel
Pictures from responders. A horrifying scene unfolded in the early hours of the morning of 18 April, when a BMW SUV was found engulfed in flames beside Thung Burapha sports ground in Ubon Ratchathani. Fire crews discovered a man’s charred body inside the vehicle, with reports indicating the presence of a charcoal stove in the driver’s footwell. Police received the emergency call at around 00:30 and officers from Mueang Ubon Ratchathani Police Station, along with fire services from multiple local agencies and nearby rescue units, were immediately dispatched to the scene in the Nong Khon Subdistrict. The BMW, found without registration plates, was ablaze in a wooded area adjacent to the sports complex. Firefighters battled the flames for over 30 minutes before managing to extinguish the fire. Initial inspection revealed the vehicle had crashed into an embankment near a drainage canal before catching fire, resulting in the complete destruction of the car. Inside the driver’s seat, responders discovered the body of an unidentified man, burned beyond recognition. A charcoal stove was found on the floor of the vehicle, raising concerns that the fire may have been intentionally started inside the cabin. Investigators contacted forensic specialists from Sunpasitthiprasong Hospital and local detectives to assist at the scene. By tracing the car’s chassis number, police determined the vehicle was previously registered in Bangkok and had once been owned by a woman identified only as Ms. Uthaiwan, who confirmed she had sold the car several years ago in an unregistered transfer. The current owner and victim remain unidentified. Authorities have not yet determined whether the incident was an accident or suicide. Due to the severe burning of the body, the remains will be sent to Bangkok for forensic examination to establish identity and determine the precise cause of death. A local resident, 19-year-old Mr. Apinan, told reporters he witnessed the vehicle swerving erratically shortly before the fire broke out. He recalled a black pickup truck following closely behind and sounding its horn repeatedly, possibly attempting to warn the driver. Minutes later, fire engines and rescue units rushed into the area. Investigations are ongoing, with police appealing for anyone with information about the vehicle or the deceased to come forward. -- 2025-04-19 -

Thailand Successfully Tests Mobile Emergency Alert System Amid Earthquake Wake-Up Call
File photo for reference only A full-scale test of Thailand's mobile emergency alert system hit all the right notes on Friday, showcasing that the system is finally functional. This follows increasing pressure after a March 28 earthquake struck Bangkok, causing widespread alarm and demands for a rapid emergency communication system. Telecom giants AIS, True Corp, and National Telecom ran the test with the support of the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC). The test proved that both Android and iPhone users can receive alerts thanks to Apple’s latest iOS 18, which supports this crucial service. Running a cell broadcast service like this involves a virtual cell broadcast entity (CBE) and cell broadcast centres (CBCs), critical elements that help relay emergency messages quickly to mobile users. The Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation (DDPM) aims to set up the CBE system, centralising command for emergency alerts. The CBC systems, already installed by the telecom operators, allow messages approved by the DDPM to be rapidly disseminated. Unlike traditional SMS messages, cell broadcasts don’t need specific phone numbers, ensuring swift delivery to entire regions without requiring special apps. Currently, these broadcasts work on Android handsets with version 12 or above and iPhones running iOS 18, leaving older 2G and 3G devices, plus older iPhone models, out in the cold. To handle this, SMS alerts remain a necessity for users stuck with unsupported systems. According to the NBTC, AIS has 1.6 million users on outdated services, with True hosting 900,000 such subscriptions. Despite these advancements, the DDPM continues to refine its part in establishing a robust, reliable emergency alert system necessary for Thailand's future preparedness. The recent success serves as a pivotal step forward in the face of natural disasters. Based on a story by Bangkok Post -- 2025-04-19
