Accident Helicopter Crash in Prachuap Khiri Khan
UPDATE Final Messages Reveal Police Pilot’s Fears Before Fatal Helicopter Crash in Prachuap Khiri Khan Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A series of final chat messages have come to light from Pol. Sub-Lt. Pratuang Chulert, the pilot who tragically died in the police helicopter crash in Prachuap Khiri Khan on 24 May. The messages reveal deep concerns about the airworthiness of the aircraft shortly before the fatal flight. The helicopter, a Bell 212 model with registration number 2215, belonged to the Kanchanaburi Provincial Police Aviation Unit. It crashed in Moo 1, Koh Lak subdistrict, Mueang district, Prachuap Khiri Khan, before bursting into flames upon impact. All three officers aboard perished in the incident. On 27 May, authorities reported the discovery of a private chat sent by Pol. Sub-Lt. Pratuang Chulert, shortly before the crash. In the message to a friend, he expressed serious misgivings about the helicopter’s condition, stating, “The aircraft is barely capable of flying… I really don’t want anyone to know… our helicopter is almost unflyable.” The chilling words have prompted further scrutiny into the maintenance and safety protocols of police aviation operations. The Royal Thai Police and relevant aviation authorities are expected to conduct a detailed investigation into the cause of the crash, including potential mechanical failures and oversight. Public concern is mounting over the safety of aircraft used by law enforcement, especially in light of the pilot’s clearly expressed concerns. The full details and causes of the crash remain under official investigation. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-05-28. -

What's the dullest place in Thailand?
They're all nice places to visit for a few days, but I wouldn't live there. As for Pattaya, it's usually called a dump by those who've never been there, or by those who, when they do, never leave the red-light districts and think the whole city is like that. It's like saying Bangkok is a dump because you've never left Soi Cowboy. -

US Pushes Forward with Private Aid Plan for Gaza Amid UN Opposition
Hamas apologists preferring to bury their heads and blame Israel Hamas is telling Palestinians in Gaza not to accept food delivered with Israeli involvement — warning they'll “pay the price” and face “all necessary measures” if they do. Are you getting it? Hamas is literally threatening to kill people for eating — and nobody cares. https://x.com/EFischberger/status/1927074413280723125 -

Accident Man Killed After Being Hit by Car on Dark Road in Pathum Thani
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A 41-year-old man was killed instantly after being struck by a car while crossing a poorly lit road in Pathum Thani in the early hours of the morning. The fatal incident occurred shortly after 01:00 on 27 May, along the Chiang Rak–Bang Khan Road in front of the Sitti dormitory in Khlong Luang District. Police from Khlong Luang Police Station, forensic doctors from Thammasat University Hospital and rescue workers from the Poh Teck Tung Foundation were dispatched to the scene. Upon arrival, officers found the body of Mr. Winai Boonram, aged 41, from Bueng Kan Province, lying lifeless in the middle of the road. Not far from the scene was a damaged Toyota saloon with Bangkok registration plate. The vehicle had impact on the front-left windscreen, broken left headlight and damage to the bonnet. The driver, 25-year-old Mr. Ruarob Papatsarakarn, was present at the scene and waited for police to arrive. In his initial statement to police, Mr. Ruarob said he was driving home from Thammasat University when the collision occurred. He claimed he did not see the pedestrian due to the lack of street lighting, which has reportedly been out for some time. “I always take this route home. The streetlights have been out for a while now, and I simply didn’t see him crossing,” he told officers. Investigators photographed the scene and collected evidence before instructing rescue personnel to transfer the body to the forensic unit at Thammasat University Hospital for further examination. Mr. Ruarob was taken to Khlong Luang Police Station for further questioning as part of the ongoing investigation into the incident. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-05-28. -
