Crime Massage Parlour in Central Chiang Rai Busted for Prostitution
Pictures courtesy of police. A late-night raid has exposed a massage parlour in the heart of Chiang Rai allegedly operating as a front for prostitution, prompting swift action from local authorities under the “Chiang Rai Clear Sky” operation. At approximately 23:00 on 12 May, Chiang Rai Governor Mr. Charin Thongsuk received reports that a massage parlour in the city centre was offering sexual services for hourly rates ranging from 1,000 to 3,000 baht. He immediately ordered Deputy Governor Mr. Prasert Jitpleecheep and Chiang Rai Chief District Officer Mr. Supot Sanmee to coordinate with administrative officials, volunteer defence corps, local police, immigration officers, the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security (MSDHS), and Internal Security Operations Command (ISOC) to investigate. Authorities raided a three-storey shophouse operating under the name “Noraset Health Massage” on Jetyod Road in the Rob Wiang subdistrict of Mueang Chiang Rai. The ground floor served as a reception area where clients were seen drinking alcohol, while the second and third floors were divided into seven massage rooms. Seventeen women were found on the premises. Of these, 15 were stateless persons without official registration, one was identified as a Myanmar national, and one was a Thai national. Also, two of the women were under the age of 18. The alleged manager, Ms. Nisa, aged 40, was also a stateless person holding a non-registered status card. She was assisted by Ms. Fasai, aged 29, also stateless, who was identified as the caretaker of the establishment. A search of the premises revealed large quantities of both used and unused condoms, supporting claims of prostitution. Prices reportedly varied depending on the age and appearance of the women. Both Ms. Nisa and Ms. Fasai were charged with multiple offences including procuring, managing, or facilitating prostitution, even with the consent of the individuals involved. Additional charges included managing a prostitution establishment, employing minors under the age of 18, and failing to notify the Ministry of Labour within the required 15-day period. The women providing services were charged with prostitution. Authorities are now working with multidisciplinary teams to screen for human trafficking victims, particularly focusing on the two under 18s discovered during the raid. The operation forms part of a broader campaign to crack down on illegal activities disguised as legitimate businesses and to address human trafficking and exploitation in the province.

Report PM Paetongtarn Shinawatra Defends Father's Hospital Stay Amid Scandal
Paetongtarn Shinawatra. File photo courtesy of Thai Rath Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra has strongly defended her father’s prolonged stay at the Police General Hospital, asserting that his ailment was genuine. This comes in the wake of the Medical Council of Thailand’s recent decision to suspend two doctors and warn another, amid allegations that they provided false medical reports for former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra. The controversy has cast a shadow on the Shinawatra family amid claims of misconduct. The Medical Council’s disciplinary action has ignited speculation, suggesting Thaksin may have exaggerated his illness to avoid serving a corruption sentence. Paetongtarn has countered these suspicions, stating that evidence and facts will be presented in due course. “The order has affected both Thaksin and me, but we’re prepared to clarify everything with evidence,” she asserted, emphasising her father’s prior COVID-19 infection and existing medical documentation from overseas. While the council refrained from naming the sanctioned doctors, reports hint at their ties to the Police General Hospital. Surprisingly, Thaksin, usually a vocal figure in Thai politics and seen as a pivotal influence over the Pheu Thai party and his daughter’s leadership, has stepped back from the spotlight since the council’s decision. His uncharacteristic silence has only heightened intrigue surrounding the matter. Paetongtarn has made it clear that she had no hand in these unfolding events, noting her ascent to prime minister occurred after her father’s hospital discharge and parole. “My father, 72 years old, was severely infected with COVID-19 before returning to Thailand, with supportive medical records from foreign doctors,” she reiterated. As the situation develops, the political landscape in Thailand remains tense, with many awaiting further revelations. The episode underscores ongoing tensions in Thailand's political arena, as questions about integrity and influence loom large. While Paetongtarn remains firm in her defence, the matter continues to provoke public and political discourse, underscoring the complexities facing key players in Thai politics today.

sisaket
I asked a similar question recently - you may want want to look at the thread at https://aseannow.com/topic/1358341-favorite-western-food-places-in-sri-saket/ Here are a few suggestions for the Khun Han area, about 50 miles south of Sisaket City. There is a place called Coco Bar. They have three rooms and a small pool. Clean and comfortable. Pleasant staff. Nice place for a mini-vacation. THB 800 per night. Comes with breakfast. I've had American breakfast once, didn't care for it, so I switched to Thai food for breakfast. All good. Restaurant serves decent pizza and chicken quesadillas. They also serve the best Isaan sausage I've ever had. Sai krop Isaan. There are two locations. One is in Khun Han - that is in town and that's not the one I'm talking about. The one in Ban Pran (about 10 miles outside Khun Han) is the one with the rooms to rent and a pool. I will mention two other places in Khun Han - on Fridays, 6-9PM, Rerawadi Resort is a good place to meet local farang and have some food. Their goulash is outstanding! They also serve very good wienerschnitzel and pizza. Also, Little Bird Cafe serves good farang food. All of these are easy to find on Google Maps. -
