US Targets Thai Products for Stringent Origin Verification Amid Trade Concerns
well, This is not something new - if you bought things in decades past, you might recall that the US had restrictions on Japanese products and to get around that problem at first or for a while I don't remember all about it except Japan just changed the name of the manufacutring plants to "USA" so the products were stamped "made in USA." but then, the quality of the Japanese products improved until they became more popular and didn't need the fake location. -

Canadian Voters Head to the Polls Amid Rising Tensions with the US
Canadian Voters Head to the Polls Amid Rising Tensions with the US Canadians turned out to vote on Monday in a national election shaped by economic instability, US tariffs, and unprecedented annexation threats from their southern neighbor. The outcome will determine whether Prime Minister Mark Carney secures a full four-year term or whether the Conservative Party, after nearly a decade out of power, will take control of the government. Voting officially began at 8:30 a.m. local time in Newfoundland and Labrador, marking the start of a day closely watched both domestically and internationally. The election has been heavily influenced by Canada’s increasingly strained relationship with the United States. US President Donald Trump’s imposition of tariffs on Canadian exports has threatened the economic health of the nation. His provocative remarks about making Canada the "51st state" have further fueled outrage across the political spectrum. "I reject any attempts to weaken Canada, to wear us down, to break us so that America can own us," Carney declared to reporters in March. "We are masters in our own home." The primary contest pits Carney’s Liberals against the Conservative Party, led by veteran parliamentarian Pierre Poilievre. Carney, a former governor of both the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England, took over as Prime Minister in March after Justin Trudeau resigned amid poor polling numbers and mounting political pressure. Assuming leadership during an intensifying trade war, Carney adopted a firm stance, upholding retaliatory tariffs initiated under Trudeau’s government. Carney’s campaign has focused on portraying himself as a centrist leader capable of guiding Canada through economic turbulence. "I understand how the world works," Carney told podcaster Nate Erskine-Smith in October. "I know people who run some of the world’s largest companies and understand how they work. I know how financial institutions work. I know how markets work…I’m trying to apply that to the benefit of Canada." He has also promised to "build things in this country again" to reduce Canada’s economic dependence on the United States, pledging to invest in homes, factories, and both "clean and conventional energy" sources. "My solemn promise is to stand up for Canadian workers, to stand up for Canadian businesses," Carney said in March. "We will stand up for our history, our values and our sovereignty." Meanwhile, Pierre Poilievre has sought to channel voter frustration with the status quo, framing the election as a choice between ordinary Canadians and entrenched "Ottawa elites." "The same people who ran Justin Trudeau are now running Mark Carney," Poilievre said at a rally shortly after Carney assumed office. "Liberals are trying to trick Canadians into electing them for a fourth term in power." Poilievre’s "Canada first" platform advocates slashing government spending, reducing bureaucracy, and loosening environmental regulations to ramp up resource extraction. "Conservatives will axe taxes, build homes, fix the budget," Poilievre promised in March, vowing to "unleash our economic independence by building pipelines, mines, [liquified natural gas] plants and other economic infrastructure that will allow us to sell to ourselves and the rest of the world." Despite stylistic similarities to Trump’s populism, Poilievre has tried to maintain distance from the American president during the campaign. After Trump publicly encouraged Canadians to support him, Poilievre responded firmly, telling Trump in a social media post to "stay out" of Canada’s election. As election day approached, voter turnout appeared to be high. Elections Canada reported that at least 7.3 million Canadians voted early, a 25% increase over the 2021 federal election. "I voted on the first day of advance polls and I waited 45 minutes," said Kristina Ennis from St. John’s, Newfoundland. "I know people who waited over an hour." The final results will determine not only the future direction of Canada’s domestic policy but also how the country navigates an increasingly volatile relationship with its most powerful neighbor.

Crime 79-Year-Old Father-in-Law Kills Son-in-Law in Dispute Over Family Property
Picture courtesy of Komchadluek. A tragic incident unfolded early this morning in the Pak Tho district of Ratchaburi, where a 79-year-old man shot and killed his 72-year-old son-in-law following a heated argument. The victim, identified as Mr. Natt, was found dead with a gunshot wound to the head outside a house in the village of Yang Hak. Police were alerted to the scene at approximately 08:00 on 28 April and arrived to find the victim’s body, wearing a blue T-shirt, grey trousers, and boots. His assailant, later identified as 79-year-old Mr. Boonmee, was waiting for police at the scene and was found holding a shotgun, which he had used in the attack. He was immediately taken into custody. According to the victim’s wife, she and her husband had been helping her father at his farm earlier in the day, spraying pesticides on crops. She explained that after the work, she and her husband were preparing to go to the hospital. However, her father, known for his fiery temper, followed them home on his motorcycle. Upon arriving at the house, a confrontation ensued between her husband and father, during which a gunshot was fired. The wife rushed outside to find her father holding the shotgun, who then stated, “Your husband is dead.” In shock and grief, she immediately called the police. The motive behind the shooting is believed to be rooted in family tensions. The wife noted that her father had always been protective of his property and was suspicious of anyone attempting to claim it. This behaviour, coupled with long-standing marital disputes between her parents, may have contributed to the build-up of stress that led to the tragic event. The wife’s mother had reportedly moved out of the family home due to constant arguments with her husband, adding to the strain in the household. Nopparat Jan Sam Ang, an assistant village headman, confirmed that after the shooting, Mr. Boonmee returned to the farm to collect agricultural tools before returning to the house, where he did not attempt to flee. Upon the arrival of the police, he was promptly apprehended and taken for questioning. Investigators believe that the shooting stemmed from a combination of property-related concerns and the elderly man’s accumulated stress. Adapted by Asean Now from Khomchadluek 2025-04-29.
