Immigration are not going to complain you used an agent the year before, why would they? they are happy people using agents -

Politics NACC Investigates Justice Minister and DSI Over Senate Scandal
Picture courtesy of Thai PBS World The National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) has launched an investigation into Justice Minister Tawee Sodsong and Department of Special Investigation (DSI) chief Pol Maj Yutthana Praedam. This probe follows allegations of misconduct relating to the Senate election collusion investigation. Senate Speaker Mongkol Surasajja prompted this action with a petition after receiving complaints from 10 senators. These lawmakers allege that DSI officials harassed them, without proper identification, at the home of a former senator in Amnart Charoen province. They claim officials coerced the senator to confess involvement in collusion and disabled the home's CCTV. The investigation into the alleged Senate election collusion is suspected by some to be a politically motivated strategy targeting the influence of the Bhumjaithai party. Observers suggest it's an attempt to diminish the power of the “Blue” faction, which holds sway in the Senate. Justice Minister Tawee, aligned with the Prachachart party and close to former PM Thaksin Shinawatra, supervises the DSI. His connection to these political figures has stirred debate over impartiality claims. The NACC’s decision highlights the intensity of political tensions surrounding the Senate elections and brings attention to the methods employed by those investigating alleged misconduct. These unfolding events spotlight Thailand’s ongoing struggle with political integrity and accountability. The next steps involve the NACC establishing a committee to delve deeper into the accusations. This move signals the seriousness with which the anti-corruption body views these allegations, which, if proven true, could have significant repercussions. As the probe advances, all eyes remain on the NACC and its findings. The outcome will inevitably impact not only the individuals involved but also the broader political landscape.

Crime Elite Security Forces to Stage Anti-Terror and Riot Response Drill in Bangkok
File picture courtesy of Amarin. Thailand’s elite special operations units are conducting a major joint exercise simulating urban riot and terrorism scenarios, in preparation for potential national crises amid ongoing domestic and border security concerns. The high-profile training, held under the framework of the Crisis Management Exercise 2025 (C-MEX 25), aims to test the country’s readiness to handle threats such as bombings, hostage situations, and large-scale civil unrest. According to official sources, the main event is scheduled for 27 June 2025 at 14:30, with General Songwit Noonphakdee, Chief of Defence Forces, presiding over and observing the drill at the site of the Orange Line MRT station on Rama IX Road, within the premises of the Mass Rapid Transit Authority of Thailand (MRTA), Huai Khwang district, Bangkok. The training involves multiple simulated scenarios across designated mock stations: • Crowd control operations, led by the 11th Military Circle, at the MRTA multi-purpose building plaza. • Bombing and arson attack, managed by MRTA, in front of its Learning Centre. • Weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and active shooter scenario, coordinated by MRTA and the International Counter Terrorism Operations Center (ICTOC), at the MRTA ticketing zone. • Hostage crisis and counterterrorist rescue mission, executed by ICTOC, inside the Orange Line’s underground tunnel. The selected station for this drill will be closed to the public. High-ranking officials attending the event include the Governor of MRTA, Commander of the 1st Army Region, Metropolitan Police Commissioner, Commander of the 11th Military Circle, and senior commanders from the Special Operations Division and Counter-Terrorist units. General Songwit is expected to oversee and evaluate the readiness and coordination between the various agencies. This exercise comes amid heightened political tensions, with mass protests expected on 28 June, and rising security concerns along Thailand’s borders. Authorities have stressed that while no third-party threats have been confirmed, precautionary measures and surveillance are being intensified to ensure public safety.
