Report Kratom May Be Reclassified as Narcotic to Curb Misuse
Picture courtesy of Wikipedia Thailand's Justice Minister Tawee Sodsong has revealed efforts to tackle the misuse of kratom leaves amidst rising public worries. Collaborating with Public Health Minister Somsak Thepsutin, Tawee is considering implementing a regulation to control kratom sales, responding to concerns raised by Yala MP Sugano Matha about potential narcotic classification. Kratom misuse, especially its mixture with other substances, has become a nationwide concern following its 2022 delisting. Some parties are still advocating for its reclassification as a narcotic to restrict its use to medical purposes only. Tawee stressed this during a House discussion, acknowledging the necessity for swift legislative action in collaboration with health authorities. Both ministers possess the power to restrict street sales of kratom, aiming to implement regulations to curb abuse, reported the Bangkok Post. The delisting has facilitated a wider kratom trade, enabling the sale of not only leaves but also kratom-based products and beverages. H However, without adequate regulation, the plant's potential for abuse has prompted discussions about stricter legal measures, including reclassification as a narcotic. As such, Tawee and his team are exploring comprehensive solutions to ensure responsible usage and control. Adapted by ASEAN Now from Bangkok Post 2025-08-22 -

Civil Judgment Against Trump Reversed
Maybe he's ruining your mind by living in it rent free. Maybe you can clarify how Trump is ruining "your country", as in America? Start with secure borders and crime reduction. Throw in renewed foreign investment levels, approaching $10T. Maybe you think deporting illegal criminal aliens is somehow "ruining" the country? If not, what then is being ruined? I suspect strongly he is ruining the wokesters and DEI pundits ability to thrive, and maybe you are "feeling it". And for sure Trump has ruined the democrat party. He's ruined Obamas legacy after exposing his treasonous endeavors and oh yah DOGE exposed and ruined the corruption and grift in USAID, and don't forget how Trump "ruined" Biden on June 27th 2024 effectively relegating Biden to the floor under a huge Trump mop and ending Bidens hallucinations of a 2nd auto-pen term.. There are no less than 78M patriots who love how Trump's "ruining" America, and the rest of the world and likely you included is IRRELEVANT in case you haven't figured that out yet. It's called America First, exactly what Trump campaigned on and what the voters expect. Also, who's bringing peace and order back to eastern Europe, not your country, NOT EVEN close. -

Civil Judgment Against Trump Reversed
They will still be fining him.......but a lot less. They have not aquitted him of the charges.....and will not aquit him. They will be fining him because he was, is, and will remain, a convicted criminal "In the lengthy ruling released on Thursday, judges on the New York Supreme Court's Appellate Division stated that while Trump was liable for the fraud, the fine of nearly half a billion dollars was excessive and probably violated constitutional protections against severe punishment." https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5y09q1zgg8o -

Bank account on overstay
Having opened a bank account with the appropriate visa, but now being on overstay, can this result in the account being blocked and closed? If you can no longer use it, can you regain access to the funds in the account before it's permanently closed?
