Report NBTC Slashes Mobile Tariffs: Cheaper Packages Under 240 Baht
Picture courtesy of Khaosod Regulators urge affordable plans as industry feels pressure to lower costs BANGKOK - The National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) is set to revise mobile phone tariffs, aiming to introduce more affordable Blue Flag Packages, reducing the cap from 240 baht (£5.29) per month. Acting Secretary-General Trairat Viriyasirikul revealed that the NBTC discussed 86 agenda items in their recent meeting, including updates on business permits, license supervision, and legal proceedings. One significant topic was agenda 4.44, focusing on regulating domestic mobile phone service rates, especially charges beyond promotional package entitlements. The NBTC intends to update guidelines to align service charges with market dynamics, enhancing consumer options. Trairat explained the importance of revising the 2020 regulations to ensure they reflect the current telecommunications landscape. The proposed changes suggest reducing starting prices for key promotional packages, targeting essential services such as calls and high-speed mobile internet, while excluding outdated SMS and MMS services. This revision considers the average revenue per user from both postpaid and prepaid services, aiming to offer lower costs for critical services over traditional messaging options. Moreover, the NBTC recommends operators provide at least two starter packages: Pay Per Use and Flat Rate. This initiative is expected to drive fair competition, maintain service efficiency, and ultimately benefit the consumers. Trairat emphasised that reviewing mobile rates would ensure transparency and adapt to technological market shifts. Operators who hold frequency bands will need to offer budget-friendly packages similar to Blue Flag products, which provide cost-effective choices. The NBTC plans to expedite drafting guidelines once approved to proceed with these changes. Meanwhile, agenda 5.19 reviewed FM frequency licensing for local broadcasting, with 2,286 applicants, of which 2,237 qualified for auction participation. The NBTC will release a participant list shortly. Forty-four entities were disqualified, and five withdrew their applications. The NBTC announced the termination of interim FM broadcasting on December 31, with new licences commencing January 1 next year. Adapted by ASEAN Now from The Thaiger 2025-07-18 -

Epstein Coverup Continues
That might be wishful thinking, but hundreds of millions would welcome it. I forgot to mention that Margery Taylor Greene is also outraged and being outspoken about it too. All the biggest Trump apologists and MAGA anchors, the ones onboard since day one, are all not happy. And it's only going to get worse if he puts out some bogus files. -

Trump Fires Maurene Comey, Epstein's Prosecutor
I don't think Maurene herself should be considered an anonymous source. https://apnews.com/article/trump-comey-epstein-justice-department-sean-combs-6a75266874bb7723ac83a9b548b7d257 WASHINGTON (AP) — Maurene Comey, the daughter of former FBI director James Comey who as a federal prosecutor in Manhattan worked on cases against Sean “Diddy” Combs and Jeffrey Epstein, said in a note to colleagues that “fear is the tool of a tyrant” and that her firing without reason should fuel “a fire of righteous indignation at abuses of power.” “If a career prosecutor can be fired without reason, fear may seep into the decisions of those who remain,” Comey said in the note, which was obtained by The Associated Press on Thursday. “Do not let that happen. Fear is the tool of a tyrant, wielded to suppress independent thought.” “Instead of fear,” she added, “let this moment fuel the fire that already burns at the heart of this place. A fire of righteous indignation at abuses of power. Of commitment to seek justice for victims. Of dedication to truth above all else.” And neither is Leavitt. Back to the Kremlin you Russian stooge. Asked about the firing Thursday, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said, “This was a decision made by the Department of Justice.” -

Crime Russian Teen Nabbed in Midnight Pattaya Graffiti Plot
Picture courtesy of THe Pattaya News Pattaya pier vandalism crackdown as officials demand cleanup from youth and guardians A 16-year-old Russian boy, Dobrynia, was caught spray-painting on Pattaya’s Bali Hai Pier Overpass during the early hours of July 17. Pattaya City’s Special Affairs Unit intervened just in time, halting the teenager's act of vandalism. The officers confiscated six cans of spray paint and a Yamaha Aerox motorbike, reportedly used by the teen to reach the scene. Local authorities expressed outrage, emphasising a strict approach despite the teen's age. “This is not artistic expression, it’s destruction of public property!” stated Pattaya City. They warned that anyone considering similar offences would face firm legal action. Dobrynia is set to face penalties under the Cleanliness and Orderliness Act, potentially facing a fine of up to 10,000 baht (approximately 282 USD). Authorities have mandated that both the boy and his guardians must clean up the graffiti themselves to emphasise the importance of civic responsibility. Pattaya is adamant in its mission to maintain its status as Thailand’s premier tourist destination. “We won’t tolerate actions that damage public spaces. These locations are not just landmarks—they’re symbols of our city,” a spokesperson explained. The police are investigating whether Dobrynia acted alone, while efforts to restore the pier are underway. The stringent measures reinforce the city's zero-tolerance approach by sending a clear message that vandalism will not be tolerated. Meanwhile, a related incident involved the State Railway of Thailand (SRT) pursuing legal action against a Japanese tourist for a similar train vandalism case in Bangkok. On July 13, the tourist allegedly spray-painted the express train number 171 operating between Bangkok and Sungai Kolok. The situation underscores a wider effort to crack down on vandalism in public areas, reaffirming the stance that the defacement of public property will lead to serious consequences. These actions underscore Thailand's broader commitment to upholding its reputation and ensuring the respect and maintenance of its public spaces for everyone's enjoyment. With continuing efforts to address and prevent such incidents, the authorities aim to preserve the nation’s image and public assets. Adapted by ASEAN Now from The Thaiger 2025-07-18
