Community 14-Year-Old Boy Dies After Family Starves for Weeks, Surviving Only on Tap Water
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. An incident has shocked the community of Pak Kret in Nonthaburi province after a 14-year-old boy was found dead in his home, having reportedly succumbed to prolonged starvation. His parents, found severely emaciated and barely conscious, were rushed to hospital for emergency treatment. Rescue volunteers from the Poh Teck Tung Foundation were alerted to the case, after Mr Yongyosakorn 44, contacted authorities to report that his son, Master Itthikorn, had died at their home. His wife, Ms Ananya 45, was also found lying weak and unable to speak, apparently suffering from extreme malnutrition. Emergency responders, accompanied by officers from Pak Kret Police Station, arrived at the family’s two-storey concrete home, where they were met with a grim scene. The residence, surrounded by overgrown vegetation, showed signs of long-term neglect. Inside, in the middle of the living area, the body of young Itthikorn was found lying on the floor, reduced to skin and bones. There were no signs of physical trauma or struggle. His mother was discovered nearby in a similarly frail condition, while Mr Yongyosakorn was seated, also appearing severely weakened. Both surviving parents were immediately taken to hospital. The victim’s uncle told reporters that he had received an early-morning call from his younger brother, informing him that his nephew had passed away. The uncle rushed to the scene and contacted rescue services. He explained that the couple had not been employed for years, having lived off an inheritance from a land sale. In recent months, however, his brother had begun calling for occasional help with household bills, including a recent request for assistance with an overdue electricity bill, which the uncle paid. The family, he added, had been living in relative isolation. “I didn’t know things had gotten this bad. He said they hadn’t eaten in nearly a month. They were surviving on just tap water,” he said, visibly shaken. A first responder at the scene confirmed the father’s account, stating that all three family members appeared to be in an advanced state of starvation. “They were frail, weak and had clearly not had proper nutrition for a long time,” the officer said. “It’s not yet clear why the family chose not to seek help.” Neighbours reported that the family kept to themselves and rarely interacted with others. One neighbour recounted that food delivery riders used to frequently bring meals to the house, but that had stopped over a month ago. “After that, I never saw them leave the house. Only once in a while, I’d see the boy sitting alone outside,” the neighbour said. The boy’s body is now awaiting further examination by the Institute of Forensic Medicine to determine the exact cause of death. Meanwhile, social workers and authorities are expected to investigate the circumstances surrounding the family’s situation, including whether more could have been done to prevent the loss of a young life.

Ukraine Zelensky Condemns “Pure Terrorism” as Russia Launches One of Its Largest Attacks on Ukraine
Yanukovych - the Ukrainian President who was overthrown - was elected on a platform which promised closer economic ties with the EU. The Ukrainian parliament had approved a bill authorising the signing of the 'EU-Ukraine Association Agreement' - which was seen as a precursor to Ukraine's eventual admission to the EU - but on the eve of the ceremony, Yanukovych - under pressure from Moscow - unilaterally decided to refuse to sign the Agreement and instead sought closer ties with Russia. The overwhelming majority of Ukrainians (>80%) were in favour of Ukraine joining the EU and felt betrayed. This was the catalyst for the Maïdan protests and Yanukovych's eventual overthrow. Separatists - aided by Russian support - had been engaged in terrorist activities in the Donbass region before 2014. Ukraine did not suddenly declare war on its' own people. -

Transport Satun Hosts Second Public Hearing on New Airport Project to Boost Tourism & Connectivity
Picture courtesy of Kaoded. The Department of Airports held its second public hearing on the proposed construction of a new airport in Satun Province. The meeting, which took place at the Aphaianuraj 1 Conference Room of the Sinkiatiburi Hotel in Mueang District, brought together local officials, project consultants, and a wide range of stakeholders to discuss the project’s design and environmental impact assessment (EIA). Mr. Thanapat Denburana, Chief of the Satun Provincial Office, presided over the session, which aimed to gather input from government agencies, local residents and other concerned parties. The hearing focused on the design of runways, taxiways, aircraft parking bays, terminal buildings and supporting infrastructure, as well as on the EIA report and proposed mitigation measures. The new airport is expected to significantly enhance transportation options in Satun, aligning with the “Air-Sea-Land” concept that integrates travel by air, sea and land. This infrastructure development is seen as a key driver in boosting tourism and facilitating easier access to the province. Speaking at the event, Mr. Chatchai Kasantikoon, a senior civil engineer with the Department’s Construction and Maintenance Division, along with representatives from the consulting firm responsible for the project, outlined the details of the development plan and gathered public feedback to refine and improve the proposal. A central theme of the project is the integration of Satun’s local identity into the airport’s architectural design. The terminal building will be inspired by the manta ray, symbolising the richness of the province’s marine ecosystem, while also incorporating elements such as the traditional buffalo kite and patterns from the region’s Down Buding textile. The design will also reflect features of the Satun UNESCO Global Geopark and the colours of the Andaman Sea, aiming to create a structure that resonates with the area’s natural and cultural heritage. This new airport project is a part of the Department of Airports’ wider strategy to enhance regional connectivity and economic development, with a strong emphasis on sustainability and community participation.
