Community Bitter Row Between 88-Year-Old Businessman & Ex-Wife Sparks Police Intervention
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A heated altercation between an 88-year-old well-known tailor and his former wife escalated into a dramatic street confrontation in Nonthaburi, prompting a police response and sparking a potential legal battle. The incident occurred at around 18:00 on 29 July in Soi Bang Krasor, Mueang District, when local police received reports of a physical altercation involving elderly businessman Mr. Sombat, also known as “Pa Den”, a respected former president of the Nonthaburi Traders Association and owner of a renowned bespoke suit shop. Police arrived to find Mr. Sombat sitting in the driver’s seat of a car with a bleeding arm injury, surrounded by a crowd of concerned onlookers. His car had been blocked in the narrow street by a woman later identified as his ex-wife, Mrs. Bua, who had confronted him and his current companion, Ms. Nok, as they were attempting to leave the property. According to witnesses, Mrs. Bua opened the car door, forcibly removed the keys, and attempted to prevent Mr. Sombat from leaving, leading to a struggle during which his arm was scratched, apparently reopening an old wound. Ms. Nok reportedly berated Mrs. Bua during the standoff. Mrs. Bua claimed she had come to retrieve her personal belongings and clothing, which she had been prevented from collecting since the couple’s recent separation less than a week ago. She told police she had become fed up with Mr. Sombat’s late-night lifestyle, including regular visits to saunas, cafés and late-night eateries, often returning home around 4:00am. She also alleged that he had recently been scammed by another woman, resulting in financial losses of over a million baht. Police advised both parties to continue discussions at the local station to avoid further obstruction in the neighbourhood. At the station, negotiations continued under police supervision. Mr. Sombat refused to allow his former wife access to the house, citing past verbal abuse and the recent disappearance of 88,000 baht in cash withdrawn from his bank account. He insisted that if Mrs. Bua wished to collect her belongings, she must do so through official legal channels with a court order and police presence. “I no longer trust anyone to enter my home,” Mr. Sombat stated. “If she wants her clothes, she can bring a court warrant. But she’s not setting foot in my house again.” He also declared his intention to press assault charges against Mrs. Bua. Following the complaint, investigating officers issued a referral for Mr. Sombat to receive medical treatment, with the resulting report to be included in the case file for further legal proceedings.

UK UK Airports Chaos: Flights Grounded by Air Traffic Outage
Picture courtesy of EPA via BBC British travellers faced a turbulent day as a sudden air traffic control glitch wreaked havoc across UK airports. A brief, 20-minute technical glitch paralysed Heathrow, Stansted, Manchester, and Edinburgh airports, leading to significant delays and frustration for holidaygoers. Thousands of flights were grounded, leaving over 120 cancellations as of 19:30. The air traffic control firm, NATS, reported the issue was "radar-related" and quickly switched to a backup system to restore order. Fortunately, there was no evidence of cyber interference, but the government is working closely with NATS to uncover the root of the problem. It's the second major outage NATS has experienced in the past two years. Back in August 2023, a similar incident disrupted the travel plans of over 700,000 passengers during the summer holiday weekend. This time, the technical hitch was traced back to the Swanwick air traffic control centre in Hampshire, which caused a temporary restriction on flights in the London area, reported BBC. NATS assured passengers that engineers had swiftly restored the affected system. Despite this, the ground stop forced many flights to divert to alternate airports, while others remained stuck at their departure points. Once flights resumed, NATS confirmed they were collaborating with airlines to alleviate the backlog safely. British Airways acknowledged the lingering impact and expressed apologies for the inconvenience. "This is entirely outside our control, and we're working hard to get journeys back on track," assured a spokesperson. Meanwhile, budget airline EasyJet advised passengers to keep tabs on their flight status and promised to contact those affected directly. Travellers were advised by Heathrow officials to check with airlines before heading to the airport. NATS swiftly apologised to all those affected by the chaos. Stranded passengers shared a variety of stories about their experiences. Asha, 18, from Manchester, found herself trapped on an EasyJet plane at Manchester Airport, her anticipated rail holiday plans in tatters. Her Amsterdam-bound flight, scheduled to depart at 15:10, experienced a brief 50-minute journey before returning. She, like many others, hoped for some snacks as compensation for the inconvenience. Another passenger, Robin Ilott from Waterlooville, endured a two-hour and 20-minute delay at Heathrow. However, he remained optimistic, stating, "It's preferable to be safe than regrettable." John Carr, en route to his brother's wedding in Norway, saw his flight axed, causing stress for the bridal party awaiting rehearsal. His companion, James Hedges, lamented the lack of a proper warning, calling the experience "rubbish." As frustration mounted, political figures reacted. Liberal Democrat leader Ed Davey labelled the incident "utterly unacceptable," demanding a government probe. He voiced concerns over ruined holiday plans for countless families. Meanwhile, Ryanair's chief operating officer, Neal McMahon, was outspoken, describing the disruption as "outrageous," and even called for NATS chief executive Martin Rolfe's resignation. Data from flight tracking firm Cirium showed that by 19:30, a total of 67 departures and 55 arrivals had been called off across UK airports. The disruption primarily affected London Heathrow, resulting in cancellations of 24 departures and 14 arrivals. However, not all cancellations can be pinned on the outage, reminding everyone of the complex web of reasons affecting air travel. It’s a scenario none wish to revisit, which emphasises the necessity of robust systems. As the skies clear, airlines and passengers alike will be keen to put this aerial ordeal behind them and hope smooth travels lie ahead. Adapted by ASEAN Now from BBC 2025-07-31 -

Almost nobody seems to care about what I care about: Same with you???
Whatever happened to Argentina, anyway? Argentina used to be in the news, but not much, these days. Has Argentina become forgotten, unfairly forgotten, in recent years? For example: CACEROLAZO....to HIT OR A BANG WITH A CASSEROLE POT. Not much has changed in recent years. Just too many Pots and Pans...... ========= Let us hope there is never a Pots and Pans revolution in SE Asia....because..... Things are already noisy enough around here.....with the roosters, etc.... -

Crime Police Raid Illegal Gambling Den in Sa Kaeo, Arrest 12 Thai and Cambodian Nationals
Picture courtesy of Daily News. Police have raided an illegal gambling den near the Cambodian border in Aranyaprathet district, Sa Kaeo, arresting 12 individuals, including nine Thai nationals and three Cambodians, for participating in unlawful gambling activities. The operation, ordered by Police Colonel Phattarakorn Kaonuan, Superintendent of Khlong Luek Police Station, followed a formal complaint submitted to Aranyaprathet District Office regarding illicit gambling in Moo 10, Tha Kham subdistrict, Sa Kaeo province. Deputy Superintendent Police Lieutenant Colonel Samat Nakaphon led a team of investigators to the property, which had been fortified with a makeshift fence resembling a cage. Inside, authorities discovered two active gambling circles: one playing a local card game known as Phasom Sib (a variation of rummy), and the other engaged in E-Pong, a traditional Southeast Asian gambling game. As officers announced the raid, several suspects attempted to flee but were thwarted by the very barriers installed around the premises to shield the activity. All 12 suspects were detained at the scene and gambling paraphernalia was seized as evidence. All detainees face charges of “colluding in illegal gambling involving the card game for monetary gain” and “colluding in illegal gambling for monetary gain.” In addition, the three Cambodian nationals were charged with illegal entry, as they were found to be without valid travel documents. The suspects and seized items have been transferred to Khlong Luek Police Station for further legal proceedings. Authorities have reiterated their commitment to cracking down on illegal gambling, particularly along border provinces where such activities are often linked to wider cross-border crime networks.
