Community Oil Residue Blankets Mae Ramphueng Beach, Tourism & Local Businesses Hit Hard
Picture courtesy of Anarin. A stretch of Mae Ramphueng Beach in Rayong province has been severely affected by black oil residue, leaving a one-kilometre section coated in dark sludge. The contamination has forced tourists to abandon the area, with beach chairs left empty and nearby restaurants reporting a sharp drop in customers. The black residue, suspected to be carbon-based oil sediment, is believed to be linked to a previous 2022 oil spill in the area. Locals say that the tar-like deposits have become a recurring issue, resurfacing periodically, especially during the rainy season. Mr Narong Thuamcharoen 50, a local resident, said, “This black material is oil sediment from the 2022 spill. It has been coming back again and again, but this time it’s much worse. The beach is covered.” Another local, Ms Sarita Aksornsri 49, voiced concerns over potential environmental impacts. “I worry about sea life ingesting this sediment. Could this be why marine animal populations seem to be declining?” Local fisherman Mr Worawut Kongnarong 54, added that the origin and nature of the residue remain unclear. “Since the previous oil spill, we’ve seen these black clumps come ashore more often, some weighing as much as three kilograms. With the southwest monsoon, more will surely appear. It seems like the government has little control over industrial waste in the sea.” He added grimly, “Whatever is dumped out there is now washing up. It’s killing the environment, and soon it’ll kill our livelihoods too. There might not be any small-scale fishing left if this continues.” In response, officials from the Tambon Tapong Subdistrict Administrative Organisation (SAO) have deployed staff to clean the affected beach area. However, many locals are calling for stronger and more sustained government action to protect marine resources and prevent further ecological degradation. Mae Ramphueng Beach, once a popular destination, now faces an uncertain future as environmental damage continues to mount. Adapted by Asean Now from Amarin 2025-05-25. -

Accident Surin: Farmer 61, Killed by Lightning While Checking His Rice Field
Picture courtesy of Workpoint. An incident occurred in the rural district of Sangkha, Surin province, where a 61-year-old man was fatally struck by lightning while tending to his rice field. The victim, identified as Mr Jamnaeng, was a resident of Phon Chai village, Moo 5, in Ban Chob subdistrict. Emergency responders and police were dispatched to the scene after reports emerged that a man had been struck by lightning during a storm. Authorities arrived to find Mr Jamnaeng lying lifeless near a small hut in the middle of a rice field. A medical team confirmed that he had no pulse and had died instantly from the lightning strike. His body was later transferred to Sangkha Hospital for a post-mortem examination before being released to the family for funeral rites. Speaking from the family home, where the funeral is being held, Mr Jamnaeng’s wife, Mrs San 62, shared details of the incident. She explained that she and her husband normally worked the rice fields together, but that day she had stayed home due to a leg injury. Heavy rain had fallen in the afternoon, prompting Mr Jamnaeng to check on the fields to ensure water levels didn’t damage the young rice plants. By 15.30, when he hadn’t returned home for lunch, Mrs San grew concerned and went to the field to look for him. There, she found her husband unconscious in the hut and immediately called relatives in the village for help. Rescue workers arrived shortly after, but it was too late, he had already succumbed to the lightning strike. The hut, located in the middle of the field, stood beside a large “Tae” tree. Officials noted signs of a lightning strike on the tree’s trunk, and broken wooden debris scattered in the area confirmed the severity of the incident. The tragic death serves as a sombre reminder of the dangers faced by farmers working in open fields during stormy weather. Local authorities have urged rural communities to take extra precautions during the rainy season. Adapted by Asean Now from Workpoint 2025-05-25.
