Crime Unemployed Engineer Stabs Father-in-Law to Death During Domestic Dispute in Khon Kaen
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A domestic argument turned deadly in Khon Kaen province when an unemployed engineer fatally stabbed his father-in-law and injured his wife during a violent outburst. The suspect was later found calmly rocking his child’s cradle inside the house while waiting to surrender to police. The incident occurred at a single-storey residence in Nam Phong district. Police were alerted at around 21:00 on 1 July and officers from Nam Phong Police Station, led by Pol. Col. Chumpol Buachum, responded to the scene along with local rescue services. Upon arrival, authorities found bloodstains throughout the property. Two seriously injured individuals had already been taken to Nam Phong Hospital, 63-year-old Mr. Sakorn who later succumbed to his wounds and his daughter, Ms. Rattiyakorn who is recovering in hospital with a stab wound to her thigh. The suspect, 48-year-old Mr. Chatchawan was found inside the house, calmly rocking his child’s cradle. He did not resist arrest and handed over two sharp kitchen knives believed to have been used in the attack. Police have charged Mr. Chatchawan with murder and causing bodily harm. According to Ms. Jiraporn 60, the wife of the deceased and mother-in-law of the suspect, Mr. Chatchawan had been living with their family since losing his job in Bangkok. He previously worked as an engineer and had two children with Ms. Rattiyakorn. The couple had moved into a house built near the rear of the family property, where the grandparents helped care for the grandchildren. Ms. Jiraporn explained that tensions had been building in the household due to financial problems. Mr. Chatchawan blamed his wife and father-in-law for losing over 400,000 baht in savings, which he claimed had been spent on gambling. On the night of the incident, a heated argument broke out over a mobile phone, which Mr. Chatchawan wanted to use for job applications. His wife questioned why he was attempting to apply for jobs late at night, which led to a verbal exchange. In frustration, Mr. Chatchawan reportedly threw a fan out of the house. Mr. Sakorn, the father-in-law, shouted from his separate quarters asking the couple to quiet down. This further enraged Mr. Chatchawan, who allegedly went into the kitchen, armed himself with two knives and attacked Mr. Sakorn, stabbing him multiple times in the chest, abdomen, ribs and arm. His wife tried to intervene but was also injured. After the assault, Mr. Chatchawan returned inside the house and sat quietly with his child until police arrived. Police are continuing their investigation while Mr. Chatchawan remains in custody awaiting prosecution. Adapted by Asean Now from Khoasod 2025-07-03 -

Landmark Inquiry: British Committed Genocide Against Indigenous Australians in Victoria
Landmark Inquiry Concludes British Committed Genocide Against Indigenous Australians in Victoria A historic Aboriginal-led investigation has concluded that British colonists committed genocide against Indigenous Australians in the state of Victoria. The Yoorrook Justice Commission, established in 2021 as Australia's first formal truth-telling inquiry, released a damning report revealing that colonisation brought about the near-destruction of Aboriginal communities through violence, disease, and systemic abuse. The Commission found that the Indigenous population of Victoria plummeted by 75% within just two decades of British settlement in the early 1830s. By 1851, the number of Indigenous people had dropped from 60,000 to just 15,000. The report stated unequivocally, “This was genocide.” Drawing on more than 1,300 submissions and over two months of public hearings, the Commission documented a harrowing history of atrocities including mass killings, disease, sexual violence, forced exclusion, child removals, cultural erasure, linguicide, and environmental destruction. It called for comprehensive “redress” to acknowledge and address these extensive human rights violations, including potential reparations. “This report shines a light on hard truths,” said Victoria Premier Jacinta Allan, whose Labor government promised to “carefully consider” the findings and recommendations. Among the 100 recommendations made were sweeping reforms to the education system, increased support for Indigenous-led health services, and formal apologies for injustices, such as the exclusion of Aboriginal soldiers from post-war land grant programs. Racism in the state’s health system was described as “endemic” by the Commission, which urged greater investment in Indigenous healthcare and stronger policies to recruit and retain Aboriginal staff. Jill Gallagher, head of Victoria’s leading Aboriginal health organisation, said the Commission's finding of genocide was “indisputable.” Speaking to the ABC, she said, “We don't blame anyone alive today for these atrocities, but it is the responsibility of those of us alive today to accept that truth — and all Victorians today must accept, recognise and reconcile with these factual findings.” Notably, three of the Commission’s five members — Sue-Anne Hunter, Maggie Walter, and Anthony North — did not approve of the inclusion of unspecified “key findings” in the final report. No additional explanation was given regarding their objections. Despite this, the report stands as a landmark in Australia’s ongoing reckoning with its colonial past. It forms part of a broader national movement toward reconciliation, which includes treaty processes and efforts to amplify Indigenous voices in political decision-making. However, progress has been uneven across the country. While similar truth-telling commissions are underway in other states and territories, some have stalled or been abandoned. In Queensland, for instance, a truth inquiry was scrapped following the election of a new Liberal-National government, replacing Labor. Nationally, the question of how to meaningfully recognise First Nations peoples remains highly contested. In October 2023, Australians voted down a proposed constitutional amendment to establish the Voice to Parliament — a national Indigenous advisory body — in a divisive referendum that left many Aboriginal leaders disheartened. The Yoorrook Justice Commission’s findings underscore the urgent need to confront uncomfortable truths about the foundations of modern Australia. While the inquiry focused solely on Victoria, its implications are national, challenging all Australians to engage in a process of truth, recognition, and ultimately reconciliation.

Australia Bans Kanye West Over Over 'Heil Hitler' Song
Australia Bans Kanye West Over Anti-Semitic Song Praising Hitler Australia has officially revoked Kanye West's tourist visa, banning the controversial rapper from entering the country following the release of a song that glorifies Adolf Hitler. The decision, confirmed by Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke, comes amid growing concern over West’s pattern of anti-Semitic rhetoric and his latest track, titled Heil Hitler, which was released in May. “You're going to have a song and promote that sort of Nazism -- we don't need that in Australia," Burke said on Wednesday. He explained that although West, who now goes by the legal name Ye, had previously traveled to the country without issue, the nature of his latest music forced officials to reconsider. “He’s been coming to Australia for a long time and he’s made a lot of offensive comments,” Burke added. “But my officials looked at it again once he released the Heil Hitler song and he no longer has a valid visa in Australia.” Ye had obtained a tourist visa that could have allowed him to stay in Australia for up to 12 months. However, sources inside the government confirmed to News.com.au that the visa was recently cancelled and that the decision had been formally communicated to him. The ban also impacts West's ability to travel with his Australian-born wife Bianca Censori, who grew up in Melbourne. While she was back in Australia earlier this year, West remained in Japan amid reports of tensions in their relationship. Now, the couple will not be able to visit Australia together due to the government's ruling. “This wasn’t a visa for the purpose of concerts. It was a lower-level visa, and the officials still looked at the law and said, ‘You’re going to have a song and promote that sort of Nazism?’ We don’t need that in Australia,” Burke told ABC TV. Asked whether the ban was sustainable considering West’s global fame, Burke didn’t hesitate. “I think that what’s not sustainable is to import hatred,” he said. “Some people say, oh, don’t you believe in freedom of speech? And for Australian citizens, yeah, you’ve got full freedom of speech. But we have enough problems in this country already without deliberately importing bigotry.” This isn’t the first time Australia has threatened to deny West entry over his inflammatory statements. In the past, government officials expressed concern following his interview with far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, in which he openly praised Hitler. But the release of Heil Hitler appears to have been the breaking point. Ye, the ex-husband of Kim Kardashian, shares four children with her: North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm. Despite his longstanding fame and previous visits to Australia, the government has made clear that celebrity status will not shield anyone from consequences if their actions violate national standards. In Minister Burke’s words, “We don’t need to bring that kind of hatred here.” Adapted by ASEAN Now from News.Au 2025-07-03 -

USA U.S. Slows Missile Deliveries to Ukraine Over Concerns About Domestic Stockpiles
U.S. Slows Missile Deliveries to Ukraine Over Concerns About Domestic Stockpiles The United States has halted certain shipments of air defense missiles and precision-guided munitions to Ukraine due to growing concerns over depleted domestic stockpiles, according to two individuals familiar with the matter. The decision marks a notable shift in the Pentagon’s logistical support for Kyiv, coming at a time when Ukraine is struggling to repel intensified Russian offensives across its southeastern front. The suspension of some weapons deliveries, including critical air defense interceptors designed to destroy incoming Russian missiles and drones, took place in recent days, the sources confirmed. While the Pentagon declined to comment officially on the matter, the individuals indicated the move reflects an internal reassessment of the U.S. military's own preparedness amid global tensions and ongoing conflicts. “There’s a real concern about how much is left in our own inventory,” said one of the sources, emphasizing that the slowdown is a precaution rather than a complete freeze of all support. The missile systems in question play a crucial role in shielding Ukrainian cities and military infrastructure from Russian aerial assaults, which have surged in recent weeks. Russia currently occupies roughly one-fifth of Ukrainian territory and continues to press forward. Ukrainian defenses are being tested on multiple fronts, particularly in the southeastern regions of Donetsk and Dnipropetrovsk, where Moscow has reportedly gained ground. At the same time, Russia has escalated its air campaign across Ukraine, targeting civilian and military sites alike. This latest pause in aid deliveries is not the first disruption to U.S. weapons support. Back in February, all military aid was temporarily suspended, followed by another, longer hiatus in March. While these suspensions were tied to funding disputes and legislative delays under the Biden administration, the current slowdown is tied more directly to concerns about national readiness. Though President Donald Trump’s administration has resumed shipments of previously approved aid, no new arms transfer policies have been announced. This leaves Ukraine in a vulnerable position, relying on pre-authorized supplies at a moment when their strategic need is arguably at its highest. The halt was first reported by Politico on Tuesday afternoon, further highlighting the uncertainty surrounding U.S. commitment to Ukraine’s military resistance in the months ahead. With political divisions at home and growing caution within the Pentagon about America’s own defense capabilities, the future of continued, large-scale arms support for Ukraine remains unclear. As the battlefield situation evolves and Russia presses its advantage, Ukrainian officials are likely to push for reassurances and fresh commitments from their Western allies. For now, however, the flow of critical U.S. weapons—particularly those designed to counter aerial threats—is slowing at a crucial time. Adapted by ASEAN Now from Reuters 2025-07-03 -

USA Paramount and CBS Reach Eight-Figure Settlement with Trump, Agree to Editorial Changes
Paramount and CBS Reach Eight-Figure Settlement with Trump, Agree to Editorial Changes Paramount Global and CBS have agreed to a major settlement with President Donald Trump, resolving a high-profile election interference lawsuit that centered around a controversial “60 Minutes” interview with then-Vice President Kamala Harris. The settlement, which includes an upfront payment of $16 million to Trump, may ultimately exceed $30 million when factoring in future allocations. According to sources familiar with the agreement, part of the settlement includes additional commitments by the network for future conservative-leaning content, such as advertisements or public service announcements. Fox News Digital reported that this mid-eight-figure allocation would support conservative causes, though Paramount leadership has reportedly disputed the characterization of these additional expenditures. CBS has also agreed to implement a significant change in its editorial standards, requiring the prompt release of full, unedited transcripts of all interviews with future presidential candidates. Those involved in the negotiations have referred to this new editorial protocol as the “Trump Rule.” “With this record settlement, President Donald J. Trump delivers another win for the American people as he, once again, holds the Fake News media accountable for their wrongdoing and deceit,” a spokesperson for Trump’s legal team told Fox News Digital. “CBS and Paramount Global realized the strength of this historic case and had no choice but to settle. President Trump will always ensure that no one gets away with lying to the American People as he continues on his singular mission to Make America Great Again.” Trump originally filed a $20 billion lawsuit against CBS, accusing the network of manipulating public perception through selective editing of Harris’ responses during a 2023 “60 Minutes” interview. In the disputed broadcast, correspondent Bill Whitaker asked Harris why Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wasn’t “listening” to the Biden administration. A preview clip aired on CBS’ “Face the Nation” showed Harris giving what critics called a rambling “word salad” response. Later, however, during a primetime special, the network aired a more composed and articulate reply to the same question. Critics accused CBS of selectively editing Harris’ full answer in a way that protected her image just before the 2024 election. The raw footage and full transcript, released earlier this year by the FCC, revealed both clips came from the same response — with CBS airing only different segments at different times. Despite agreeing to the settlement, CBS has denied any journalistic misconduct. “The settlement will include a release of all claims regarding any CBS reporting through the date of the settlement, including the Texas action and the threatened defamation action,” Paramount said in a statement. The case proceeded to mediation, where both sides sought resolution, especially as Paramount Global prepared for a major merger with Skydance Media. Analysts speculated that Paramount’s controlling shareholder, Shari Redstone, pushed for a swift resolution to avoid potential delays or retaliation from the FCC, which is led by Trump-appointed officials and holds authority over the pending merger. In an earlier post on Truth Social, Trump declared the case a sure win, writing: “They cheated and defrauded the American People at levels never seen before in the Political Arena. Kamala Harris, during Early Voting and, immediately before Election Day, was asked a question, and gave an answer, that was so bad and incompetent that it would have cost her many of the Votes that she ended up getting.” CBS’ long-time “60 Minutes” correspondent Scott Pelley had previously warned that any settlement in the case could be “very damaging to CBS, to Paramount, to the reputation of those companies.” While the settlement ends the legal dispute, it leaves a significant mark on media policy and underscores Trump’s continued campaign against what he has repeatedly labeled “Fake News.” ABC also settled a defamation lawsuit in December with then-President-elect Trump for $15 million, after anchor George Stephanopoulos repeatedly and incorrectly asserted Trump had been found “liable for rape” in a civil trial last year.
