Thai - Cambodia Conflict Thailand Eyes Concrete Wall Solution for Cambodian Border Tensions
File photo for reference only Thailand is considering building concrete walls along its border with Cambodia to prevent future cross-border intrusions. Palang Pracharath leader Prawit Wongsuwan, a former deputy prime minister and defence minister, presented this proposal. The plan targets disputed areas where recent military clashes have sparked concern. The proposed walls would span contentious regions in Thailand's northeastern and eastern provinces, including Ubon Ratchathani, Sisaket, Surin, Buriram, Sakaeo, Chanthaburi, and Trat. These provinces have witnessed recent clashes over the past five days between Thai and Cambodian forces, primarily in Sisaket's Kantharalak district and Surin's Panom Dongrak district, near Cambodia's Preah Vihear and Oddar Meanchey. The recent skirmishes resulted in the tragic loss of 12 Thai soldiers, with some casualties occurring even after a ceasefire agreement was reached. Additionally, approximately 138,000 Thai civilians have been displaced from affected areas and are yet to return home due to safety concerns, despite the ceasefire remaining fragile. The concrete wall proposal is seen as a peaceful long-term measure to bolster security and stability along the border. While it aims to prevent further escalation, the situation remains delicate, with the potential for renewed conflicts hovering over the region. The Thai government continues to assess the effectiveness and implications of such a structure in maintaining peace and security. Adapted by ASEAN Now from Thai Newsroom 2025-07-30 -

USA Ghislaine Maxwell’s Staggering Demands for Congressional Testimony
video screenshot Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell throws down the gauntlet! Offering to testify before Congress, she insists on major conditions, including immunity, as revealed in her attorneys' list to the House Oversight Committee. Subpoenaed by Oversight Chair James Comer, Maxwell initially aimed to invoke her Fifth Amendment rights. However, her lawyers are now willing to cooperate provided they guarantee safety and fairness. They warn that the absence of these protections could jeopardise her current Supreme Court appeal. Maxwell's Conditions: 1. Formal Immunity: Maxwell insists on a formal grant of immunity to protect her from potential legal repercussions. 2. Location of Interview: She demands the interview not occur at the correctional facility where she's serving her sentence. 3. Advance Questions: Maxwell requires the committee's questions in advance to ensure accuracy and fairness, avoiding surprise questioning. 4. Timing of Testimony: Her testimony should be scheduled only after the resolution of her Supreme Court petition. The Oversight Committee rejected the idea of granting her immunity, stating that while they will respond to her legal team, they will not consider the immunity as a viable option. Comer echoed these sentiments, emphasising his reluctance to grant immunity to an accused individual of serious offences. Surprisingly, Maxwell's plea extends a request for clemency from President Donald Trump. Her legal team suggests that with clemency, she would willingly testify openly, clearing up misunderstandings around the case. If conditions aren’t met, invoking her Fifth Amendment rights remains her fallback. This development sheds light on the delicate balance between legal rights and congressional oversight, as Maxwell juggles her legal battles with potential testimony.
