Community Dutch Man Found Dead in Ayutthaya Hotel Room
Picture courtesy of ปลอดภัย สามหก A 54-year-old Dutch national was found dead in a hotel room in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya on the afternoon of 22 June, with blood discovered in the bathtub and on the bed. Authorities are investigating the cause of death and have not ruled out foul play. Police were called to a hotel in the Hua Ro subdistrict at around 13:00, after a housekeeper unlocked room 319 and discovered the man lying unresponsive beside the bed. He was wearing only a pair of shorts and was found lying on his back with visible blood stains on the mattress. A bathtub in the room was also found partially filled with bloody water. The deceased has been identified as Mr. Ronald Delft, a Dutch citizen who had been staying at the hotel for three days. He was due to check out at midday, but when he failed to do so, the cleaner used a spare key to enter the room and made the grim discovery. Preliminary examinations revealed a deep wound on Mr. Delft’s left wrist, leading investigators to estimate that he had been dead for approximately six to seven hours before being found. Inside the room, police found bottles of liquor and soft drinks, as well as a handwritten note in English, which reportedly included contact details for his brother and the Dutch Embassy. The body was transported to Thammasat University Hospital for an autopsy. According to police, Mr. Delft had checked in alone and no signs of other guests entering the room have been identified so far. While early indications suggest the possibility of suicide, officers stressed that they have not ruled out homicide and are reviewing CCTV footage and other evidence to determine the exact cause of death. Authorities are working to contact the deceased’s family and the Dutch Embassy to arrange for the repatriation of the body and the necessary religious rites. The investigation remains ongoing. If you or anyone you know is in emotional distress, please contact the Samaritans of Thailand 24-hour hotline: 02 713 6791 (English), 02 713 6793 (Thai) or the Thai Mental Health Hotline at 1323 (Thai). Please also contact your friends or relatives at this time if you have feelings of loneliness, stress or depression. Seek out help. Adapted by ASEAN Now 2025-06-22 -

BREAKING NEWS Trump Confirms Surprise US Airstrikes on Iran’s Nuclear Sites, Including Fordo
UPDATE: Starmer Supports Trump’s Strike on Iran, Calling Nuclear Threat “Grave to Global Security” Starmer Supports Trump’s Strike on Iran, Calling Nuclear Threat “Grave to Global Security” Prime Minister Keir Starmer has offered Britain’s full support for the surprise US airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, declaring that Tehran’s pursuit of nuclear weapons represents “a grave threat to international security.” His endorsement came just hours after President Donald Trump confirmed that US forces had bombed three Iranian nuclear sites, including the heavily fortified Fordow facility. In a statement released early this morning, Starmer said, “Iran's nuclear programme is a grave threat to international security. Iran can never be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon and the US has taken action to alleviate that threat. The situation in the Middle East remains volatile and stability in the region is a priority. We call on Iran to return to the negotiating table and reach a diplomatic solution to end this crisis.” The Fordow site, located roughly 80 miles south of Tehran and buried deep within a mountain, was reportedly hit with a 30,000-pound “bunker buster” bomb. The US also launched Tomahawk cruise missiles from submarines targeting other key nuclear facilities at Natanz and Isfahan. Trump described the strikes as a “spectacular military success” during a late-night address from the White House, claiming that the uranium enrichment base at Fordow had been “flattened.” According to reports from US defense sources, the bombers used in the strike flew directly from the United States rather than operating from the joint UK/US base at Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean. While the UK was not directly involved in the operation, Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds confirmed that Britain was informed ahead of time. The Prime Minister’s endorsement of US military action marks a notable shift, as Starmer had previously urged caution and emphasized the need for diplomatic solutions to avoid escalating tensions across the Middle East. However, following the strikes, he has publicly recognized the US’s actions as a necessary step to curb Iran’s nuclear ambitions. Support for the US strikes extended beyond the government benches. Opposition leader Kemi Badenoch said, “By targeting Iran’s nuclear sites, the US has taken decisive action against a regime that fuels global terror and directly threatens the UK. Iranian operatives have plotted murders and attacks on British soil. We should stand firmly with the US and Israel.” Reform UK leader Nigel Farage also endorsed the airstrikes, posting on social media: “Iran must not be allowed to have nuclear weapons, the future of Israel depends on it.” The international fallout from the operation remains uncertain, but the political response in the UK has been overwhelmingly in favor of the strikes. With tensions in the Middle East already dangerously high, the backing of America’s actions by the UK’s political establishment signals a rare moment of unity in confronting what many see as a defining threat to global stability.

Plastic bags: the old normal?
Yes, but they're not designed for single use. Whilst they are probably stretching it a bit, there is a clue in the name "Bag for Life". -

That's a weak excuse to protect the so called professional sleuths here. That's my opinion. As what is your explanation to pardon their unsubstantiated opinions is your decision!
