Thai Grab rider arrested for attempted rape of university student
Photo via Channel 7 By Petch Petpailin Police arrested a Thai Grab rider yesterday for the attempted rape of a female passenger, a university student, at her destination near a university in the Isaan province of Nakhon Ratchasima. The 20 year old student from Suranaree University of Technology filed a complaint at Pho Klang Police Station yesterday, November 27. She explained that she booked the ride from Gate 1 of the university to Gate 2 at nearly midnight. Normally, riders would take passengers along the internal university road but the victim revealed that the rider chose a dark route outside the campus instead. The rider suddenly stopped mid-journey, claiming he needed to urinate. Realising the potential danger, the victim got off the motorcycle, preparing to run away. Unfortunately, the rider grabbed her, touched her inappropriately, and attempted to rape her. The victim fought back and managed to escape. She sought help from a resident nearby and immediately reported the incident to the police. Channel 7 reported that the victim is now seeking psychological support due to the mental trauma caused by the incident. She is reportedly living in constant fear. Officers identified the suspect as Pimonphat Ritthep, who provided services via the Grab application. He was arrested on the same day and confessed to his criminal actions. Police charged Pimonphat under Section 295 of the Criminal Law for causing injury to another person’s body or mind, which carries a penalty of up to two years’ imprisonment, a fine of up to 40,000 baht, or both. He was also charged under Section 278 of the Criminal Law for sexually assaulting a person aged over 15 through threats or violence. This offence carries a penalty of up to 10 years’ imprisonment, a fine of up to 200,000 baht, or both. Source: The Thaiger -- 2024-11-28 -

Trump Plans new Tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China
Trudeau and Trump were on the phone. Trump said it was a good call while Trudeau mulling the need to go on the offence if the trade war eventuate. No country win in a trade war and tariff is not a beautiful word. -

Trump Plans new Tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China
That's because we don't care about Australia except as it benefits us as a military base and tourist attraction. It's far away, and the mountains are probably nicer in North America although you got nasty creatures which is cool. I've been in and out of Thailand for almost 40 years and I don't pretend to go analyze their politics. -

Leaving a motorbike (scooter) parked without riding it for how long before problems arise?
I've just returned to Thailand after 5 months. I reconnected the battery and my PCX started first time. The tyres were virtually flat but other than that the bike has been fine. I had left the tank full, by the way. -

New visa exempt arrivals
The Thai govt WANTS us to come and spend money here - see the change to Visa-Exempt to 60 days and the DTV - because our spending creates Thai jobs. Immigration just want a "cut of the action," or they make up non-legal reasons to deny entry at known-bad entry points. -
