Report Bangkok Condo Clash: Japanese Man Attacked Over Smoking Dispute
Picture via Facebook/รู้ทันจีน News Violence erupted in Bangkok’s Rama 9 when a group of men, reportedly of foreign nationality, attacked a Japanese resident for filming them flouting a condo’s no-smoking rule. The incident has sparked significant online attention as footage of the event spread rapidly. The dramatic scene unfolded when the Japanese man, concerned about the rule violation, began recording the men who were smoking in a prohibited area. As tensions rose, the group confronted him, escalating into a violent altercation. A viral video shows the Japanese man attempting to shield himself behind a Thai security guard. One attacker, dressed in black, aggressively confronts him. A woman's voice, captured in the video, can be heard urging the attackers to desist seconds before police intervention. Allegations surfaced that one of the attackers attempted to use a food shop sign as a weapon, but the presence of police prevented further violence. The victim sustained injuries and expressed fears of future retaliation, reported The Thaiger. In a twist, the Chinese Embassy in Bangkok publicly stated that the individuals involved were not Chinese nationals, as claimed in online reports. They referenced Thai police confirmation, leaving questions about the attackers’ true nationality unaddressed. Currently, Thai police have not released any information on legal proceedings or protective measures for the victim. The incident raises concerns about safety for residents and tourists in the area, drawing attention from media and the public alike. Adapted by ASEAN Now from The Thaiger 2025-08-14 -

Traffic Foreign Cyclist's Reckless Manoeuvre Sparks Outrage in Phuket
Picture via Facebook/Pusana Ai Senrit Outrage erupted among Thai netizens upon witnessing a foreign cyclist cutting dangerously in front of a pickup truck on a busy Phuket road. Driver Pusana Ai Senrit shared the dashcam footage of the incident in a Facebook group known for exposing reckless driving. The video captures the cyclist shifting from the left shoulder to the far-right lane, nearly colliding with Pusana’s vehicle on Bypass Road. Quick reflexes were the only thing preventing a serious accident. The online community were not shy to express their anger, with comments criticising the cyclist's actions as careless and foolish. Among the reactions were warnings and sarcastic remarks pointing to the foreign cyclist’s lack of regard for safety. Others raised concerns over larger vehicles being blamed if an accident occurred. Some suggested the cyclist should have walked his bike instead of attempting such a precarious move. The legality of the cyclist’s actions was called into question. Thai law requires cyclists to adhere to the shoulder or designated cycling lanes on main roads. Violating these rules can lead to fines, as highlighted by this incident, reported The Thaiger. There’s no word yet on whether legal action will follow. However, the situation remains a stark reminder of the importance of adhering to traffic laws. Last year, in Chiang Mai, two foreign cyclists faced hefty fines for a similar breach. They issued public apologies and paid 10,000 baht each after unlawfully riding electric unicycles on the road. The pattern of incidents involving foreign cyclists flouting local traffic laws seems to be ruffling feathers. As discussions continue, this latest incident shines a spotlight on road safety responsibilities for cyclists and drivers alike. Adapted by ASEAN Now from The Thaiger 2025-08-14 -

So, after 2 ICJ determinations in favour of Cambodia, Thailand cannot accept the rulings and thus resort to war. Again. Or is something else in play here?
