Crime Illegal Chinese Cosmetics Factory Busted, Fake Products Seized
Picture courtesy of Naewna. Police have raided a cosmetics factory in Chachoengsao province, seizing more than 230,000 illegally produced items with an estimated market value of over 20 million baht. The joint operation, involved the Central Investigation Bureau (CIB), the Consumer Protection Police Division (CPPD), Thailand’s Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the provincial public health office. The raid followed complaints from local authorities and members of the public that an unlicensed plant in Bang Pakong district was manufacturing cosmetics without official approval or product registration numbers. Officials warned that such products, made without safety checks or ingredient disclosure, posed serious risks of allergic reactions and long-term skin damage. During the search, officers discovered a large-scale illegal production line where raw materials imported from China were being boiled, mixed, bottled, labelled and packed for export. Police detained a 24-year-old Thai woman, identified only as Ms Papavee, who claimed she managed the site on behalf of a Chinese company director. She admitted the factory had been operating for around eight months. Authorities seized 234,699 items, including nine categories of cosmetic products, along with machinery, labels, packaging and raw ingredients. FDA deputy secretary-general Dr Rungreethai Muanprasitporn said the raid highlighted the dangers of counterfeit cosmetics and praised cooperation between agencies in shutting down the illegal factory. “Consumers should only buy products with Thai-language labels, FDA registration numbers and clear information on ingredients, usage and manufacturer details,” he stressed. The offences fall under Thailand’s 2015 Cosmetics Act, carrying penalties of up to six months in prison or fines of 50,000 baht for producing unregistered cosmetics, and up to two months in jail or fines of 20,000 baht for selling them. Products without Thai-language labels also attract penalties of up to three months in jail or fines of 30,000 baht. Police have vowed to pursue the wider network behind the operation and warned consumers against purchasing health and beauty products that appear unusually cheap, carry incomplete labelling, or make exaggerated claims. The suspect and the seized goods have been handed over to CPPD investigators for prosecution. Adapted by Asean Now from Naewna 2025-08-20 -

How would you know? According to your past posts you don’t take part in that behavior. Certainly hope you’re not a hypocrite. The majority of leftists are. -

Tourism Thailand's Free Flight Bonanza: Gift for 200,000 Foreign Tourist
File photo courtesy of TTG Asia Thailand is rolling out the red carpet with a generous offer of free domestic flights for 200,000 tourists, aiming to boost travel from September to November. The Tourism and Sports Ministry hopes this initiative will rake in 8.8 billion baht by luring travellers to explore lesser-known gems across the country. Yet, the programme still awaits the green light from the cabinet, contingent on a 700-million-baht budget. Inspired by Japan's recent tactics, this campaign, aptly titled “Buy International, Get Free Thai Domestic Flights”, targets international arrivals. Flyers holding international tickets can snag a free round trip within Thailand, complete with a 20-kilogram baggage allowance. The freebie applies to six airlines, including Thai Airways, Thai AirAsia, and Bangkok Airways, but only if bookings are made directly with airlines or through travel agents. However, certain industry insiders express reservations. Chianti Mai’s trade vice-president, Punlop Saejew, believes the scheme, though useful, would shine brighter in off-peak seasons. He raises a point on hefty domestic fares hindering seamless travel and proposes government funding to mitigate these costs. The northeastern region might see meagre benefits, as per Rungroj Santadvanit of the Thai Hotels Association, as reported by the Bangkok Post. Despite Buri Ram and Ubon Ratchathani connecting to Bangkok via domestic flights, they aren't on the typical tourist trail. Rungroj calls for tailored marketing efforts, suggesting Buri Ram embrace sports tourism and Ubon Ratchathani play up its Mekong River charms. Rungroj also points out that there are clear safety communications in response to ongoing Thailand-Cambodia border tensions, critical for guaranteeing comfort among prospective visitors. More creative hooks for the northern and southern provinces could bolster this campaign, tapping geographical preferences of potential tourists from Australia, New Zealand, and Scandinavia. By mid-August, Thailand’s tourist footfall hit 20.8 million, though that's a 7% dip compared to last year’s figures. The largest slice of this pie came from China, with 2.9 million tourists gracing the Land of Smiles. Adapted by ASEAN Now from Bangkok Post 2025-08-20
