Phuket Airport skips memorial for One-Two-Go crash victims again
The Airports of Thailand (AoT) once again dodged the chance to hold an official memorial service in Phuket for the 90 victims of the One-Two-Go Flight OG269 disaster. This marks the 17th consecutive year that local officials have avoided organising any remembrance ceremonies for one of Thailand’s deadliest air crashes. On the anniversary of the tragedy, Monchai Tanode, General Manager at Phuket International Airport, took part in World Ozone Day events and attended a meeting with the Economic and Business Research Centre at Siam Commercial Bank. The meeting covered macroeconomic research, impact analysis, and passenger growth trends at the airport. Tanode also honoured retiring staff with bouquets in a separate ceremony. The One-Two-Go Flight 269 crash occurred on September 16, 2007, during an attempted go-around after an aborted landing in heavy rain and strong crosswinds—conditions strikingly similar to those in Phuket yesterday. The McDonnell Douglas MD-82, carrying 123 passengers and seven crew members on a flight from Bangkok to Phuket, crashed into a runway embankment and erupted in flames after ground control ordered a go-around. Out of the 130 people on board, 89 died at the scene, with one survivor later succumbing to burn injuries in hospital. Forty others survived but were injured. The passengers included nationals from Thailand, the UK, France, Australia, Canada, and other countries. Following damning safety reports, budget airline One-Two-Go was shut down by its parent company, Orient Thai, on October 9, 2018, reported Phuket News. Today, September 18, local rescue worker Chukiat Ayuperm, head of the Kusoldharm Foundation Phuket’s Thepkrasattri branch and a volunteer with the Pitakkarn Foundation, shared his own tribute to the tragic event that rocked Thailand, posting photos of the rescue efforts at the scene. “I remember the chaos and devastation vividly. It’s something you can never forget.” Picture courtesy @OnDisasters Picture of the wreckage from the One-Two-Go crash courtesy of Phuket News TOP Picture courtesy of Phuket News Full story: The Thaiger -- 2024-09-18 -

Foreign Tourists Caught in Intimate Acts on Tuk-Tuk During Traffic Jam
It´s amazing how our society has become. Of course not all, but more and more people behave like cave-born savages. The deterioration is massive with lack and loss of respect for others, self respect and knowledge how to behave in public. -

The Cost of Delay: Amber Thurman's Preventable Death Highlights Dangers of Abortion Bans
Strangely, they didn't draw a correlation between those 2. Nowhere do they claim that the reason for the delay was that Georgia law. It's just as likely the delay was due to normal problems like insurance approvals, lack of staff, specialist consultations, or any number of reasons people sit in ER waiting rooms for hours. And wait weeks to get appointments. Especially since Obamacare. (there, I said it...) -

PM Paetongtarn Faces Threat with Impeachment Over Cabinet Pick
As PM (or the PM's daughter) you would have thought she would have a free hand in choosing cabinet members......drug dealers, bribers, extortionists, rapists, blackmailers......if they are not allowed, she is going to struggle.
