Fire Major Fire Guts Rubber Processing Factory in Chonburi
Pictures courtesy of Khaosod. A massive fire broke out at a well-known rubber processing factory in Chonburi in the early hours of the morning of 10 May, sending thick black smoke billowing into the sky and forcing more than 50 workers to flee for their lives. The blaze erupted just after midnight in Moo 7, Tha Boonmee subdistrict, Koh Chan district. Officers from Koh Chan Police Station rushed to the scene alongside over 20 fire engines from various emergency response units. When they arrived, they were met with intense flames and heavy smoke engulfing the premises. Firefighters battled the blaze for more than six hours and were finally able to bring it under control around 06:00. However, the factory, reportedly involved in the cutting, shredding, and reprocessing of rubber for export, was extensively damaged, with more than 90% of the facility destroyed. At the time of the incident, approximately 50 employees were inside the building. All managed to escape, though the chaotic scene saw workers sprinting for safety amid the inferno. Authorities have yet to determine the cause of the fire or provide an estimate of the financial losses incurred. Forensic teams from Region 2 are conducting a thorough investigation to collect evidence and identify what sparked the fire. Police will also be interviewing relevant individuals to support the inquiry and ensure all legal procedures are followed. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-05-11. -

Accident Father Weeps Over Daughter’s Body After Fatal Motorbike Crash with Parked Lorry
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A 25-year-old medical assistant lost her life in a road crash on the evening of 10 May, after her motorcycle crashed into the rear of a parked lorry trailer in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya province. The incident occurred at around 20:00, on Highway 356, near kilometre marker 9, in Pak Kran subdistrict. Pol Lt Col Manoch Ritthipoon, an investigator from Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Police Station, arrived at the scene along with rescue workers from the Ayutthaya Ruamjai Foundation. The victim, who worked as a medical assistant at a clinic in Bang Pa-In district, was found dead at the scene. Her blue Honda motorcycle, registered in Ayutthaya, was wedged underneath the rear of a trailer that had been detached from a lorry and left parked on the roadside. The impact had been so severe that she was killed instantly. The trailer, bearing Saraburi registration, had been left on the roadside with a tree branch attached as a warning marker. A lorry, registered from Saraburi, was found parked nearby with its hazard lights on. According to the lorry driver, the vehicle had suffered a tyre blowout earlier, prompting him to park on the shoulder of the road. He said he had placed warning barriers approximately 50 metres from the vehicle before detaching the trailer and driving to find a tyre repair centre. Upon returning, he found rescue teams already at the scene and learned that a motorbike had crashed into the trailer, resulting in a fatality. In a heartbreaking moment, the victim’s father arrived shortly after the incident. Upon seeing his daughter’s body, he collapsed in grief, embracing her lifeless form and weeping uncontrollably. Police have launched an investigation into the incident and are collecting evidence. The young woman’s body has been transferred to a hospital for examination before being released to her family.

No one is above the law even New Jersey politicians.
Dem Lamonica in red again 3 months ago with her protected free speech! ” We are at war” Just after Hakeem Jefferies instructed his members to “fight in the streets “. I expect she will be dealt with in court and possibly lose her seat at the House of Reps table. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/democratic-lawmakers-face-backlash-over-calls-for-violence-over-trump-agenda-we-are-at-war/ar-AA1ysZOu -

Did Trump actually succeed in getting Pakistan and India to ceasefire?
That small town where all this started is the last of such before entering a certain Hindu pilgrimage route, and the trip unfortunately coincides with the monsoon season, which begins next month or so. I would think Modi would be motivated for a cease-fire, at least until September.- 1
