Soldiers from the Lardya Task Force under the Surasee Military Command, in coordination with local police and administrative officers, intercepted a truck smuggling 26 undocumented migrant workers, believed to be from Myanmar, in a tightly packed sealed container at a checkpoint in Thong Pha Phum District, Kanchanaburi. The operation was launched following intelligence reports indicating that illegal migrant workers would be transported along this route. Major General Atsadawut Panyarachun, Commander of the 9th Infantry Division and head of the Surasee Military Command, ordered Colonel Phannasak Priaopanit, Commander of the 29th Infantry Regiment and head of the Lardya Task Force, to coordinate with Border Patrol Police Company 135 and Thong Pha Phum Police Station to establish a joint checkpoint at the Thong Pha Phum three-way junction in Tha Khanun Subdistrict. At approximately 07:30 on 15 May, officers stopped a suspicious box truck. The vehicle was driven by a 47-year-old man, accompanied by a 37-year-old woman. Upon inspecting the cargo area, authorities discovered 26 migrant workers crammed inside with no identification documents. Preliminary questioning revealed that the driver had picked up the workers in Ban Khanun Khli, Pilok Subdistrict, Thong Pha Phum District, with the intention of delivering them to employment in Chonburi Province. The driver admitted to receiving a fee of 25,000 baht per person for the transportation. The driver, the woman and all 26 migrant workers were taken into custody and transferred to Thong Pha Phum Police Station for legal proceedings. Authorities have vowed to continue cracking down on human trafficking and illegal cross-border labour smuggling in the region. Adapted by Asean Now from Kaoded 2025-05-16. -

Transport U-Tapao Airport and Eastern Aviation City: Ambitious Step Towards Becoming a Aviation Hub
Pictures courtesy of MGR. The U-Tapao International Airport and Eastern Aviation City Development Project is poised to become a cornerstone of Thailand’s Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC), with the strategic goal of establishing U-Tapao as the country’s third major international airport and a key aviation hub in Southeast Asia. In a significant development, the U-Tapao International Aviation Co., Ltd. (UTA) is set to formally sign the construction and investment agreement on 18 June 2025. This signing will proceed independently of the delayed high-speed rail project that aims to connect Thailand’s three main airports. Concurrently, negotiations are underway regarding tax-free zone privileges within the Aviation City. Spanning more than 6,500 rai in Phla Subdistrict, Ban Chang District, Rayong Province, the project encompasses comprehensive infrastructure plans. These include the development of a fully integrated aviation and business city, seamless multi-modal transport connectivity, air, land, and rail and a full suite of airport facilities. The project has received strong support from both the government and private sector partners. The government recently approved amendments to the project contract, increasing investment to 40 billion baht. It has also facilitated access to soft loans and approved 24-hour operations for businesses within the Aviation City, aiming to boost investment and tourism in the area. Phase one of the project is targeted for completion and partial operation by 2028, with long-term plans to transform the site into a full-fledged “U-Tapao Aviation Metropolis.” This expansion will include increased airport capacity and commercial zones, designed to support rapid economic and tourism growth in the eastern region of Thailand. As one of the largest infrastructure undertakings in the EEC, the U-Tapao and Eastern Aviation City project represents a bold vision to elevate Thailand’s position on the global aviation map while serving as a powerful driver of regional economic development.

Crime Former Scrap Dealer Turns to Robbery After Gambling Losses, Gold Snatched from Market Vendor
Picture courtesy of Siam News. A man who had fallen on hard times due to online gambling has been arrested after a brazen daylight robbery in which he stole a gold necklace and amulet from a market vendor in Chaiyaphum province. The suspect, identified as Mr Patiwat Noiphueng, 30, originally from Khlong Luang District, Pathum Thani, was arrested on 14 May, by Chaiyaphum police after fleeing to stay with relatives in the Sai Mai district of Bangkok. The incident occurred on 20 April at the Nong Bua Rawe municipal market. Mr Patiwat allegedly stole a motorcycle belonging to a municipal officer at Chaiyaphum Town Market. He then rode to the neighbouring district, where he snatched a 1-baht gold necklace and a 50-satang gold-framed amulet of the revered monk Luang Pu Phang from a female vendor, before fleeing on the stolen bike. Following an investigation using CCTV footage and witness statements, police traced the suspect’s vehicle to a relative’s home in Bamnet Narong district, Chaiyaphum. They confirmed his identity and tracked him to Bangkok. Pol Col Prasit Premkamol, Superintendent of Chaiyaphum Police Station, dispatched officers to the capital, where the suspect was arrested at his relative’s residence. He was later brought back to Chaiyaphum for questioning. During interrogation, Mr Patiwat confessed to the crime. He revealed he once ran a scrap metal shop in Rangsit, but after becoming addicted to online gambling, he accumulated substantial debts and lost all his assets. After borrowing money from his father to invest in his business again, he squandered it on gambling, leaving him destitute. Mr Patiwat then travelled to Chaiyaphum where he intended to purchase a second-hand pickup truck. Instead, he spent his remaining money on gambling once more and ended up renting a cheap hotel in the city. Desperate, he stole a motorcycle at the market and used it to carry out the gold robbery in Nong Bua Rawe. He later sold the stolen gold at a shop in Bamnet Narong for 40,000 baht, which he used to purchase a second-hand pickup truck. Upon learning that police were pursuing him, he quickly sold the truck to a used car dealer in Pathum Thani and fled to Bangkok. Following his arrest, Pol Lt Col Thanasit Udompornwornchai, Deputy Superintendent of Chaiyaphum Police, led the suspect through a crime reenactment at three key locations: the hotel where he stayed, the scene of the motorcycle theft, and the site of the gold snatching in Nong Bua Rawe. Mr Patiwat now faces theft charges by Chaiyaphum police and additional robbery charges involving a vehicle by Nong Bua Rawe police. Adapted by Asean Now from Siam News 2025-05-16.
