THAILAND LIVE Thailand Live Monday 3 March 2025
Combating Call Scams: Thailand Mulls Cambodia Border Wall File photo for reference only In a bold move to combat cross-border crime, Thailand is considering constructing a wall along part of its boundary with Cambodia, a decision that reflects the struggle against illegal crossings and call-scam centres. These criminal organisations, often operated by Chinese gangsters in Cambodia and Myanmar, have been exploiting vulnerable populations, luring them with false job promises only to entrap them in scams. Recent raids in Poipet, Cambodia, saw the rescue of 215 individuals from such schemes, including 119 Thai nationals, exemplifying the gravity of the issue.

Combating Call Scams: Thailand Mulls Cambodia Border Wall
File photo for reference only In a bold move to combat cross-border crime, Thailand is considering constructing a wall along part of its boundary with Cambodia, a decision that reflects the struggle against illegal crossings and call-scam centres. These criminal organisations, often operated by Chinese gangsters in Cambodia and Myanmar, have been exploiting vulnerable populations, luring them with false job promises only to entrap them in scams. Recent raids in Poipet, Cambodia, saw the rescue of 215 individuals from such schemes, including 119 Thai nationals, exemplifying the gravity of the issue. Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra's visit to the Aranyaprathet border sparked the cabinet's discussion of this potential barrier. Government spokesman Jirayu Houngsub outlined that while the idea was explored, further studies and discussions with Cambodian authorities are needed to envision its feasibility and impact. The Thai Defence Ministry previously suggested a similar construction along a well-trodden 55-kilometre stretch marked by natural crossings. Call-scam centres are notorious for their reach, victimising individuals even in distant West African nations. The crackdown intensified following the high-profile rescue of Chinese actor Wang Xing, who was manipulated into crossing borders under false pretenses. Despite successes in rescuing some exploited victims, many remain stranded in dire conditions as international collaboration seeks to facilitate their safe return home. Rangsiman Rome, deputy leader of the People's Party, has cautioned that the journey to dismantle these networks is far from over, with an estimated 300,000 people involved just in the Myawaddy area. As Thailand continues its fight against these criminal enterprises, the prospect of a border wall becomes an intriguing, albeit complex, tool in their arsenal, reported The Thaiger. -- 2025-03-03 -

Thailand Intensifies Crackdown on Illegal Foreign Businesses
Well, Pattaya, for many years, continues to have foreigners openly soliciting business for acounting, legal advice/representation and tax consultanting - all banned to foreigners under Thai law. Yet, they make no attempt to hide their activities - and the authorities do nothing. But if some foreign smuck who is a nominee owner of a bar or restaurant gets caught opening a beer or serving a pizza to a customer - they pounce! Crackdown complete. -

Marco Rubio Demands Apology from Zelensky After Heated Oval Office Clash
When did the left start caring about Ukraine? Obama seemed to love Russia and Putin. Remember in the Debate when Romney claimed Russian was the greatest geopolitical threat, and Obama scoffing and joking: Senator, the '80s called and want their foreign policy back. Remember Obama caught on a hot mike begging Putin for "space" until after the election in exchange for canceling missile defense. Remember the "Russian Reset". Remember Obama's refusal to sell defensive weapons to Ukraine. Remember Obama did nothing in 2014 when Putin invaded and began the occupation of Crimea. Now remember Trump placing sanctions on Russia. Now remember Trump killing 200 of Russia's Wagner Group mercenaries in Syria. Now remember Trump selling arms, including Javelin missiles to Ukraine. Remember Biden cancelling sanctions on Russia, including those imposed by Trump to gain favor with Putin. Remember Biden halting arms sales to Ukraine to gain favor with Putin. Remember Biden's surrender debacle in Afghanistan, emboldening Putin. Remember Biden saying that the US would not respond to Russia invading Ukraine, if it were only a minor invasion, further emboldening Putin. The left seemed to care nothing about Ukraine until it became politically expedient for them to use in attacking Trump and to pretend Trump was a Russian asset. -
