Crime Drunken Adopted Son Kills Elderly Parents with Axe Before Taking Own Life in Nan Province
Picture courtesy of Amarin. A 41-year-old man brutally killed his elderly adoptive parents before hanging himself, in a horrifying incident that has shocked the local community in Nan province. The incident unfolded at a house in Ban Pa Tong Don Sai Thong, Moo 8, Sila Phet subdistrict, Pua district. Mr Thamchinda “Pong” Nakai, aged 41, allegedly used an axe to strike his 80-year-old adoptive father, Mr Inphai Nakai, fatally as he slept. He then turned the weapon on his adoptive mother, Mrs Phai Nakai, also 80, who was preparing chilli paste in the kitchen, killing her as well. Following the double murder, Mr Pong hanged himself in his bedroom. A chilling message he had scrawled on the wall, cursing others, was discovered nearby. Neighbours raised the alarm after a local frog seller found the house unusually quiet when delivering an order. Concerned, neighbours forced entry and found Mr Inphai dead on his bed with severe head injuries. In the kitchen, Mrs Phai was found lifeless, beside a mortar and pestle, with similar wounds to the head. Upon further inspection, Mr Pong’s body was discovered in his bedroom, hanging by a piece of cloth. Relatives told reporters that both Mr Inphai and Mrs Phai had their own children from previous marriages before they met. Mr Pong was taken in and raised as their own after being abandoned at birth in a hospital. The couple treated him as their biological son, while their other children moved away to start their own families. According to relatives, Mr Pong was an alcoholic who frequently argued with Mr Inphai. He had mortgaged the family home and land, and it is believed mounting financial pressure and the prospect of losing the property may have driven him to commit the murders. It was also revealed that Mr Pong had written the ominous message on the wall as early as 16 April but had covered it with a cloth, hiding it from view. During the recent Songkran festival, he had asked relatives to take a family photo, stating cryptically that it would be needed later, a request that, at the time, raised no suspicions. Mr Saenoh Kongkhun, the village assistant headman and a neighbour, said he had noticed nothing unusual on the morning of the incident. He had seen Mrs Phai picking chillies in the garden as usual, and no disturbances were heard from the house. Police are continuing their investigation. Adapted by Asean Now from Amarin 2025-04-27. -

Thermodynamically Speaking: Should I keep my house at a constant temp to save money?
Can't move to a house which is properly insulated. The walls are built of brick with no insulation on the walls. The windows are single pane glazing. So, who knows....might it be better to just run the ACs to maintain a constant temp....? Or, would it be better to shut off the ACs in the morning, and afternoon, and then try to cool down the rooms after they have reached 32 degrees? Actually.... I am not so sure which might be better.... However...I am going for the latter. I will just keep the ACs going, 24/7, and set at 22.5 degrees C. And then, the temp inside the house will remain constant. And then....will this be the better option for saving money on electricity? Certainly, doing this will be better for comfort. And, no longer will the ACs need to operate at FULL BLAST. They will just keep on cooking. And, they will maintain the temperature of the mass of the house, including brick walls, at a constant temp.... No need to go from 21 degrees to 33 degrees, every day....if you get my meaning. ============ Proper insulation is almost unheard of here in Thailand. They love the heat, here, and hate the freezing cold during the Cold Season.
