Community First Public EV Bus Launched in Songkhla as it Targets Cleaner Future
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. Songkhla has launched its first public electric (EV) bus as part of a pilot project spearheaded by the Songkhla Provincial Administrative Organisation (PAO), aiming to promote clean energy and reduce air pollution in the region. The trial service was officially inaugurated on 22 April, by PAO President Mr. Supit Pitaktham. The initiative aligns with the “Clean and Pollution-Free Songkhla” policy, one of five core policies and 35 strategic initiatives laid out by Mr. Supit. During the initial two-month trial phase, the EV bus will serve the PAO’s internal missions, including the transport of students, the elderly, and patients, to test performance and reliability. Mr. Supit stated that this step marks a significant milestone in providing accessible, environmentally friendly public transport. “This project reflects our commitment to reducing air pollution and transport costs for the people of Songkhla. The EV buses are energy-efficient, safer, and more economical to operate.” Pending a successful trial, the PAO plans to expand the service by the end of 2025, introducing one EV bus per district across eight districts in the initial phase. Fares are expected to start at just 2 baht per person for an entire journey, making it an affordable alternative to conventional transport. Notably, the EV bus project is fully funded by private investment, without drawing on the national budget. The next steps involve discussions with the Songkhla PAO Council to finalise operational details and ensure that the expansion is carefully planned and efficiently managed. If implemented province-wide as planned, Songkhla will be among the first southern provinces to run a publicly accessible EV bus network, setting a benchmark for sustainable transport.

Ebike Tailight Always On Help
The battery/controller tube is removed from the bike and the bike doesn't have a 3 way switch. I think (bad memory) pushing the on/off button turned on the tail light. -

Stocks Rise After Bessent Says He Expects Standoff with China to De-Escalate
US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told a closed-door investor summit Tuesday that the tariff standoff with China is unsustainable and that he expects the situation to de-escalate. Bessent added that negotiations haven’t started but that a deal is possible, according to people who attended his session at an event hosted by JPMorgan Chase & Co. in Washington, which wasn’t open to the public or media... US stocks rose after his comments, with the S&P 500 index gaining as much as 2.9% as of 12:28 p.m. in New York, while the dollar and Treasuries steadied. https://archive.ph/tO8LZ More blinking from Trump? Or is Bessent blowing smoke? Seems unlikely that the Chinese would back down so soon. -

Accident Newly Elected Provincial Councillor Fatally Crashes SUV into Woman on Motorbike
Pictures from responders. A newly elected provincial councillor in Phayao province has been involved in a fatal road collision after crashing his Toyota Fortuner SUV into a woman riding a motorcycle on the unfinished R3A highway. The victim, a 60-year-old local woman, died at the scene. At approximately 10:45 on 22 April, Pol. Lt. Praphat Kaakham, Deputy Inspector at Chun Police Station, received a report of a collision at a traffic junction on the R3A road near Ban San Luang, Moo 5, Thung Ruang Thong subdistrict, Chun district. Rescue teams from Kuan U and Norasingh Chun foundations, along with doctors from Chun Hospital, rushed to the scene. Upon arrival, responders found a white Toyota Fortuner, registered in Phayao, that had veered off the road. The driver was identified as Mr. Theerawat 38, a newly elected member of the Phayao Provincial Administrative Organisation from Ban Pa Sak, Phu Sang district. Nearby, a red-and-black Honda motorcycle lay wrecked in the middle of the road. The area was strewn with a sack of sand and spilled contents from the motorbike. The body of Mrs. Pin aged 60, was discovered not far from the crash. She had suffered severe injuries, including a fractured skull, multiple broken limbs, and a broken neck. Her body was taken to Chun Hospital. Preliminary investigations revealed that the victim had been transporting food and sand to her husband, who was working in nearby fields. As she crossed the incomplete R3A junction, the SUV struck her motorbike. Although traffic lights have been installed at the intersection, they have yet to be activated as parts of the road remain under construction. Police are continuing to gather evidence and witness statements to determine the precise cause of the crash and whether any charges will be filed. Adapted by ASEAN Now from Khaosod. -- 2025-04-23
