Trump Administration Halts New Student Visa Interviews Amid Social Media Vetting Push
Clearly it is impossible to know which potential students will break the law so the thought police must take a stab at it. "Shutting down unorthodox viewpoints is the most surefire way to destroy democracy." - J.D. Vance -

Crime Fathers Shoot Drug-Crazed Sons in Two Separate Incidents
Pictures courtesy of Khaosod. Two separate provinces witnessed harrowing domestic incidents on the evening of 28 May, where fathers, pushed to the brink by their drug-addicted sons, resorted to firearms in self-defence. One son remains hospitalised with gunshot wounds, while another died at the scene. Father Shoots Son in the Legs to Stop Violent Rampage in Phatthalung At around 22:00 in Chumphon Subdistrict, Srinakarin District, Phatthalung Province, police from Srinakarin Police Station responded to reports of a shooting involving a family member. Upon arrival, the injured party had already been transported to hospital by emergency services. The shooter, 57-year-old Mr. Sompong, a village assistant headman, admitted to shooting his son, 31-year-old Mr. Atsadawut, with a legally issued shotgun used in his role with the Village Defence Volunteers. According to Mr. Sompong, his son, long known to struggle with drug addiction and recently showing increasingly violent tendencies, had gone into a drug-induced frenzy. Armed with a metal pipe, the son allegedly smashed the roof of the house and destroyed property while shouting incoherently. Mr. Sompong claimed he had tried to calm his son down, but the latter ran at him aggressively. Fearing for his life, the father fired at both of his son’s legs to stop the attack. He said that after the son collapsed, he immediately rendered aid and called emergency services. Police have taken Mr. Sompong into custody along with the shotgun and five cartridges, pending legal proceedings. Son Killed by Father After Brutal Attack in Lopburi An even more tragic scene unfolded in Kaeng Phak Kut Subdistrict, Tha Luang District, Lopburi Province, at approximately 21:05. Local police, forensic officers, medical staff, and rescue volunteers arrived at a private residence to find 60-year-old Mr. Thongbai Pan-ud severely injured and his son, Mr. Bird Pan-ud, 30, dead from a single gunshot wound to the head. Preliminary investigations revealed that the son, reportedly suffering from drug addiction and psychosis, had approached his sister to ask for money. When their father, Mr. Thongbai, intervened and reprimanded him for his behaviour, an altercation ensued. Witnesses stated that Mr. Bird became enraged, grabbed a hoe and began striking his father, leaving him with serious head injuries. In an act of apparent desperation, the father managed to escape, retrieved a .38 calibre revolver and shot his son in the forehead at close range. The son died instantly in the courtyard of their home. Due to the father’s injuries, he was unable to provide a statement at the time. The police have documented the crime scene, collected evidence, and intend to pursue legal action. The victim’s body has been sent for autopsy at Tha Luang Hospital. These cases have reignited debate over the growing social crisis surrounding drug addiction and mental health, particularly within rural communities, where access to sustained rehabilitation and psychiatric care remains limited.

Finance Foreign Nationals Face Account Bans in Bangkok Bank Crackdown
Glad I chose Kasikorn over BB when I opened my account appropriately 10 years ago using my newly issued OA visa. Annual extensions using the 65k plus transfer every month via WISE. BB may of been more beneficial to U.S. citizens as they allow direct deposit of government pensions via their New York branch routing number. I wanted no part of that. Prefer to have my money going directly into my USA bank and transfer when I decide. Now, with my LTR-WP Visa (10 years) it’s even better. No annual extensions. No 90 day reporting. No re-entry permits. Fast track at Swampy, entering and exiting. Approximately 9/3, Thailand/USA. Condo and car await my return. Don’t burn your bridges back home. -
