Accident Father & 2 Young Children Killed in Collision with Fruit Truck in Chanthaburi
Pictures courtesy of Komchadluek. A devastating road crash claimed the lives of a father and his two young children in Chanthaburi province on 22 June, after their pickup truck collided head-on with a 12-wheeled lorry loaded with empty fruit crates. The fatal crash occurred around kilometre markers 82-83 along Route 317, the Chanthaburi-Sa Kaeo Road, in the Khao Daeng area of Soi Dao district. Rescue units from the Sawang Katanyu Foundation rushed to the scene after receiving reports of a serious crash with people trapped inside a vehicle. On arrival, emergency responders found a white four-door Toyota pickup truck, registration plate from Chanthaburi, severely damaged from a collision with a red Hino lorry bearing registration from Loei. The lorry was carrying empty plastic fruit baskets. All three occupants of the pickup, a father and his two children, were found deceased inside the wreckage. Rescuers had to use multiple hydraulic tools to cut through the mangled vehicle and retrieve the bodies, a process that took over 30 minutes. The deceased were later identified as Mr. Alongkot aged 35, his son aged 8 and his daughter, aged 4. The lorry driver, Mr. Prayoon aged 42, from Phatthalung province, was uninjured and cooperated with the authorities. He stated that he had been transporting the empty crates from Nakhon Phanom to a fruit depot in Khlung district, Chanthaburi. Preliminary investigations suggest that the pickup truck had been travelling from Pong Nam Ron district towards Wang Sombun in Sa Kaeo province, while the lorry was heading from Sa Kaeo towards central Chanthaburi. The exact circumstances leading to the head-on collision remain under investigation. Police are currently working to determine the cause of the crash. Weather and road conditions at the time have not been ruled out as contributing factors. Adapted by Asean Now from Khomchadluek 2025-06-23 -

How can I minimise import duty on my personal use musical instruments?
https://www.reuters.com/markets/deals/thailand-sign-agreement-with-european-free-trade-association-next-week-pm-says-2025-01-13/ There’s currently no trade deal between the UK and Thailand, so once your guitar lands, you’ll also need to pay around 17% in taxes (that’s 10% import duty + 7% VAT) based on its value—before you can get your hands on it and play.- 1

Accident Storm Capsizes Fishing Boat in Reservoir, Younger Brother Survives, Elder Brother Drowns
Picture courtesy of Workpoint. A sudden storm caused a fishing boat to capsize in a reservoir in Chachoengsao province on the afternoon of 21 June, claiming the life of a 40-year-old man while his younger brother miraculously survived. The incident occurred at approximately 16:30, at the Khlong Siyad Reservoir in Moo 2, Tha Takiap subdistrict, Tha Takiap district, Chachoengsao. Local authorities, including district officials and rescue volunteers from Phanom and community-based civil defence teams, were immediately dispatched to the scene after villagers reported a boat had overturned. Upon arrival, rescue personnel launched boats to search the reservoir. Initial reports confirmed that one man, identified as Mr. Worakrit, had managed to swim ashore, while his brother, Mr. Somphot aged 40, had gone missing beneath the water. According to Mr. Worakrit, both men had travelled from Sri Maha Pho district in Prachinburi province for a day of fishing at the reservoir. On their way back to shore, they were caught in a sudden downpour accompanied by strong winds and heavy waves that overturned their small fishing boat. “I threw a water container to my brother so he could hold onto it,” Worakrit recounted. “I grabbed another one and managed to make it to shore. But he didn’t follow. I called out for help from people fishing along the banks.” At approximately 17:40, rescue teams recovered Mr. Somphot’s body floating near the reservoir’s edge, about 500 metres from the site of the capsize. Authorities have urged the public to monitor weather forecasts closely before venturing out onto bodies of water. Adapted by Asean Now from Workpoint 2025-06-23- 1
