Bangkok’s Roads Are a Bloody Joke Now — Mates, It’s a Crime Scene Out There
What I miss most about Bangkok - the portable table-top bars along Sukhumvit that appeared after sundown. I met some great temporary friends as the atmosphere was always pleasant. No pressure to "buy me a drink" though I was more than happy to accomodate any freelancer who caught my eye. When they "cleaned up" Bangkok, they also eviscerated the very thing that made Bangkok stand apart from other large cities around the world. -

Community Elderly Wild Elephant Receives Emergency Treatment in Khao Sok National Park

A 70-year-old female wild elephant is receiving emergency medical care after collapsing in a palm oil plantation near the boundary of Khao Sok National Park in Surat Thani province. Mr Theekawut Sriburin, head of Khao Sok National Park, confirmed that park officials and a veterinary team from Protected Area Regional Office 4 (Surat Thani) swiftly launched a rescue operation upon receiving reports of the incident. The elephant was discovered in Village 6, Khlong Sok Subdistrict, Phanom District, lying in a weakened state and unable to stand. The area, located on the edge of the national park, had been experiencing persistent rain, resulting in muddy conditions that hampered the rescue effort. Veterinarians immediately administered intravenous fluids to combat dehydration and restore the animal’s strength. Anti-inflammatory medication was given to relieve pain and sugar solutions were used to provide an energy boost. Blood samples were also collected for laboratory analysis to determine the root cause of the illness. Despite the difficult terrain and adverse weather conditions, the rescue team remains stationed at the site, monitoring the elephant’s condition around the clock. Officials remain hopeful that the elephant will respond positively to treatment and make a recovery. This incident highlights the challenges faced by Thailand’s conservation teams in safeguarding ageing wildlife as their habitats increasingly overlap with agricultural land.

Accident Chumphon: Farm Worker Killed as Tractor Plunges Down 30-Metre Ravine
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A incident occurred in Chumphon province on 8 June, when a 40-year-old farm worker died after the tractor he was driving veered off a steep road and plunged into a ravine approximately 40 metres deep. The incident also left a female passenger injured, though she narrowly escaped more serious harm by leaping from the vehicle just in time. Police Lieutenant Samart Than-in, duty investigator at Tha Sae Police Station, received an emergency call around 17:00. The crash took place along the steep, mountainous Phanwa-Ke-La Road, in Moo 13, Rabror Subdistrict, Tha Sae District, around 20 kilometres from the Thai-Myanmar border. Rescue teams from the Chumphon Charity Foundation and Rabror Subdistrict Administrative Organisation responded swiftly. Upon arrival, they discovered 34-year-old Ms. Panadda from Udon Thani, who had suffered injuries to her head and body. She was transported to Tha Sae Hospital for treatment. The deceased was later identified as Mr. Sarawut, 40, from Huai Yot District in Trang province. His body was found lying face-up in roadside undergrowth with blood visible around his mouth. Emergency responders covered the body with a white sheet before recovering it and sending it to Tha Sae Hospital for a formal post-mortem examination. Initial on-site investigations revealed skid marks on the steep descent, indicating a loss of control. At the bottom of the ravine, responders located a severely damaged red tractor with shattered wheels and scattered parts, along a trail of broken vegetation. Ms. Panadda, who had been riding as a passenger, managed to jump clear of the vehicle before it plummeted into the ravine. Authorities believe Mr. Sarawut was ejected from the vehicle and then fatally crushed as the tractor tumbled down. Police are continuing their investigation and plan to interview Ms. Panadda further to determine the exact circumstances leading to the incident. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-06-10
