Storm Wreaks Havoc in Nonthaburi: Canopy Blown Away, Power Poles Collapse on Vehicles
Picture from responders. Nonthaburi was hit by a severe thunderstorm on the evening of September 12, causing significant damage throughout the area. A commercial building’s parking roof covering collapsed and was blown into the street, taking down power poles and crushing vehicles. The local hospital, Phra Nang Klao, had to rely on backup generators as the storm damagecaused a widespread power outage. At approximately 19:30, the Nonthaburi Municipality's disaster prevention and mitigation team received a report about a collapsed roof covering that had fallen on cars parked in front of Phra Nang Klao Hospital, located in Bang Krasor, Mueang District, Nonthaburi Province. Combined withheavy rainfall and powerful winds the falling roof, led to several power poles collapsing onto vehicles, damaging over ten cars and motorcycles. Mayor Samanuek Thanadechakul was informed of the situation and dispatched Deputy Mayor Apiwat Phetruang, alongside local police and electricity officials, to assess the damage. Upon arrival, authorities discovered a two-story, ten-unit commercial building with a metal roofed parking area behind it. The strong winds had ripped the roof off, causing it to crash onto cars and motorcycles parked on the roadside. Additionally, three power poles were knocked down. Municipal officials were forced to temporarily close one side of the road while workers cleared the debris and power company officials cut the electricity to begin repairs. Apiwat explained that the illegal extension of the building's roof was to blame, as the powerful winds easily lifted and destroyed the structure. The resulting damage caused an immediate power outage in the area, forcing Phra Nang Klao Hospital to switch to its backup generator. Fortunately, no injuries were reported. Electricity officials took 5 hours to fully restore power to the area. -- 2024-09-13 Get the ASEAN NOW daily NEWSLETTER - Click HERE to subscribe -

Latest developments and discussion of recent events in the Ukraine War
Russia can end war now, says PM as Putin warns West Russia "started" the conflict in Ukraine and can end it "straight away”, Sir Keir Starmer has said after Vladimir Putin suggested Moscow would regard Western missiles being fired into Russia as a serious escalation of the war. The PM is in Washington for talks with US President Joe Biden on Friday, as allies of Kyiv discuss giving Ukraine permission to fire their missiles at targets inside Russia. Putin told Russian state television that this would “mean nothing other than the direct participation of Nato countries - the US and European countries - in the war in Ukraine. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cvgxgvw38xjo -

Trump Harris: Who won the debate ?
Had Harris actually said anything factual, instead of mouthing platitudes, she may have had said something worth fact checking. Wishful thinking can't be fact checked. -

Any advantages to retirement over marriage visa?
There is no 'retirement' or 'marriage visa as such. You apply for the Non Imm O visa for the reason of retirement or Thai spouse. Both will grant a stay of 90 days on entry. Your Non O visa is now invalid, but your Immigration status is Non Immigrant. You cannot extend a visa, you apply to extend your 90-day permit of stay for 365 days for the reason of retirement or Thai spouse. The extension based on retirement requires 800K deposited in a Thai bank account in your sole name, for 2 months prior to the date of application. The 800K must be maintained for 3 months after the extension is granted, after which you can make a withdrawal, but must maintain a minimum balance of 400K throughout the rest of the year. The extension based on Thai spouse requires 400K deposited in a Thai bank account in your sole name, for 2 months prior to the date of application. After the extension is granted, you can withdraw and use the full 400K. Other differences for the 1-year extension applications are documentation and processing times. -

So, fact checks were appropriate, the moderators did their job, but it gave you a sad. Got it. Until and unless you can identify specific fact checks that were wrong, you're just whining. -
