Economy Blackpink's Lisa to the Rescue: Thai Farmers Eye K-Pop Star for Fruit Boost
Picture courtesy of Wikipedia In a bid to tackle mounting challenges, Thai fruit farmers have turned to Thailand's Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra with an innovative proposal: recruit K-pop phenomenon Lalisa "Lisa" Manobal to boost Thailand's fruit exports worldwide. During her weekend visit to Chanthaburi, Ms Paetongtarn engaged with regional fruit growers and entrepreneurs who detailed their plight, citing escalating production costs, shipment delays, and labour shortages as chief concerns. Farmers believe that Lisa's global appeal could significantly elevate Thai fruit exports, particularly beyond the Chinese market. The ambitious strategy aims to elevate the fruit export target to 500 billion baht annually, a notable jump from the current range of 200–300 billion baht. Among other pressing issues, the farmers placed special emphasis on hastening customs clearances at borders, where delays can last up to 12 days. Concerns over premature durian harvesting, impacting both quality and weight, were also discussed, prompting calls for clearer regulatory frameworks. Labour shortages further aggravate the situation, prompting suggestions to extend migrant work permits and increase mobility between provinces. Furthermore, a proposal for a 100-million-baht compensation fund was brought forward to aid durian farmers and locals affected by wild elephant incursions. Prime Minister Paetongtarn assured the farming community of the government's proactive measures. Collaborative efforts with businesses are underway to mitigate surplus produce and reduce wastage. She also highlighted her commitment to expediting export procedures and directed the Ministry of Labour to address workforce deficits in agriculture. Emphasising the need for research and development, Ms Paetongtarn underscored the imperative to enhance product quality and retain competitiveness alongside neighbouring countries. The cabinet is focused on advancing R&D within key export sectors to bolster long-term growth. Concluding her visit, Ms Paetongtarn participated in multiple initiatives, including overseeing a livestream durian sale by the Young Smart Farmer group and engaging in community activities directed at improving agricultural practices.

Trump Mocks France Over WWII Commemorations, Urges Greater U.S. Recognition
Trump is not presidential material and I cannot wait until him and his VP and friend Musk are all gone from politics. I hope many Americans are embarrassed to have him as their leader. What a joke. In My Opinion -

Accident Uthai Thani: Man Killed by Wild Elephant After Hunting Frogs
Picture courtesy of Khaosod, A 59-year-old man was killed in the early hours of 18 May, after being attacked by a wild elephant while riding home on his motorcycle following a night of frog hunting. The incident occurred near the Thung Faek checkpoint, just 30 metres from a road leading into the Huai Kha Khaeng Wildlife Sanctuary in Lan Sak district. The victim, Mr. Chalo, was found dead at the mouth of a drainage culvert beside a rural road in Moo 10, Rabam subdistrict. His body was discovered by local residents early in the morning, prompting authorities to investigate. Responding to the scene were Police Lieutenant Pornpaisan Kladfueang of Lan Sak Police Station, Mr. Santapop Asawaprapapong, assistant chief of the Huai Kha Khaeng Wildlife Sanctuary, and Mr. Anuphan Sarasuwan, the local village headman, along with a team of wildlife officers. At the scene, Mr. Chalo was found lying on his back, with a frog-catching net and a sheathed knife nearby. His Yamaha motorcycle was found overturned close to the culvert. Scratches and drag marks on the road indicated a struggle and footprints, dung and signs of trampling around the culvert confirmed the presence of a wild elephant. A sack containing frogs was found at the rear of the vehicle. Mrs. Chamroen, 54, the victim’s wife, tearfully recounted that she and her husband had gone out together around 20:00 the previous night to search for frogs, returning at 23:00 with only two. Determined to try again, Mr. Chalo left home alone around 02:00 to continue hunting. By morning, local villagers informed Mrs. Chamroen that her husband had been found dead. Initial examination findings revealed bruising and a severe wound to the neck. Authorities believe that the victim encountered a wild elephant in the dark. The torch attached to his helmet may have startled the animal, causing it to charge. It is thought the elephant struck his motorcycle, throwing him from the vehicle, before attacking him further, leading to his death. This incident highlights the growing tension between rural communities and encroaching wildlife, particularly in areas bordering protected forests. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-05-19.
