In the heart of Bangkok, where sacred temples meet sprawling urban life, a tale unfurls that intertwines devotion with scandal, and serenity with intrigue. It all began within the hallowed walls of Tri Thotsathep Temple, a place revered for its spiritual guidance, yet now echoing with whispers of a forbidden love story. At the center of this narrative is a Thai woman, known only as K, who allegedly had clandestine encounters not only with one, but four senior monks, shaking the very foundations of their monastic commitments. The first fallen figure from this saga is Arch, the respected abbot of the temple. For three years, Arch’s life ran parallel to two paths: one steeped in sacred rituals, the other entwined with romantic escapades. It was with K that Arch found himself in the throes of a secret liaison, often meeting her in the anonymity of hotel rooms. Yet, as the…

The educational landscape in Thailand is facing a pressing predicament as the Office of the Basic Education Commission (OBEC) rings the alarm over dwindling student enrollment numbers. This decrease poses significant challenges, especially for small schools that already grapple with constrained budgets due to the per-head funding system currently in place. Alongside this enrollment issue, the excessive workload of teachers continues to be a concern. To combat these challenges, a strategic proposal is being crafted to present to the new education minister with hopes of easing these burdens. Acting Sub Lieutenant Thanu Wongjinda, the Secretary General of the Basic Education Commission, has disclosed that the number of students under OBEC’s purview dipped by about 100,000 this academic year, marking a drop from 6.4 million to just over 6.3 million as recorded on June 10. Such a decline could exacerbate the already tough conditions faced by many educational institutions, particularly the…

In a dramatic courtroom scene in Georgia, Bella Culley, a British teenager from Billingham, County Durham, finds herself at the center of a harrowing legal ordeal. Accused of attempting to smuggle cannabis worth £250,000 — approximately 11.2 million baht — into the country, Bella faces life imprisonment if convicted. During a recent pre-trial hearing in Tbilisi, Bella revealed a story of alleged torture and coercion that led to her involvement in the crime. Amidst the tense atmosphere of the courtroom, Bella, struggling to hold back her tears, displayed a prominent snake-like scar on her right arm. She claimed this scar was a result of torture inflicted upon her in Thailand, where she was allegedly forced into the drug smuggling operation. She passionately pleaded her innocence, telling the court, “I didn’t want to do this. I was forced by torture. I just wanted to travel. I study at university to become…

The pivotal decision by Cambodia to cease refined oil imports from Thailand can be seen as a dramatic move, but experts say it won’t induce much turbulence for Thai oil companies. With their sophisticated networks and foresight, Thai oil exporters stand primed to redirect their staggering 6 million litres of daily oil shipments once meant for Cambodia to other eager markets across Asia, such as Singapore, according to the Department of Energy Business (DOEB). Overseeing this slick operation is Sarawut Kaewtathip, the savvy Director General of the OEB. Under his guidance, Thai oil refineries powered by industry titans Thai Oil, IRPC, and PTT Global Chemical, among others, churn out approximately 160 million litres of refined oil each day. Of this mammoth production, a lion’s share – around 130 to 135 million litres – feeds the thirst of domestic consumption. Sarawut brims with confidence, asserting that the displaced oil will easily…
In the serene break of dawn on the picturesque island of Koh Samui, a tragic tale unfolded that cast a shadow over the paradise known for its vibrant sunsets and lively beaches. The island stirred to an unsettling incident on the morning of July 2, when a 45-year-old Austrian vacationer met with a fatal accident that would ripple through the peaceful corridors of the hotel he was staying at, forever altering the lives of those involved. This unfortunate event caught the attention of the Bo Phut Police Station in Surat Thani province, when an urgent call was made to the 191 emergency center around 5 a.m. The news was grim—a foreign guest was found lifeless at a prominent hotel along the bustling Beach Road, nestled in the Bo Phut subdistrict of Koh Samui. Law enforcement officers responded swiftly, unearthing a scene both haunting and heartbreaking upon their arrival. The tourist’s…
Just as the jungle echoes the mystique of nature, an ominous shroud of anxiety has fallen over Tak Province’s verdant heart. The tranquil Mae Tuen Wildlife Sanctuary became the epicenter of a brazen onslaught, when the peace of night was shattered by the crackling of gunfire. At the stroke of midnight, when the world sleeps under the watchful spell of the moon, two shadows on a motorcycle broke the stillness with a fiery challenge aimed at the very guardians of the forest—the Pha Lado Forest Protection Unit. In a muse-worthy audacious act, two perpetrators, likely rogue loggers with a hankering for rosewood, a treasure as forbidden as it is valuable, declared war. Command felt from the notorious corridors of a thrilling novel, Minister Chalermchai Sri-on, the spearhead of natural resources and environment crusade, unsheathed his takedown orders, steering police towards justice like a maestro coaxing symphony from chaos. The head…
In a move that has sent shockwaves through Thailand’s political landscape, Paetongtarn Shinawatra finds herself at the center of a storm following a decision by the Constitutional Court. On July 1st, the court voted 7-2 to accept the senators’ petition for her removal from office, based on a controversial audio recording. In the clip, Paetongtarn supposedly engages in a conversation with former Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen, leading to her temporary suspension from her duties as Prime Minister. The suspension not only halts her current ministerial engagements but also bars her from appearing before His Majesty King Maha Vajiralongkorn Phra Vajiraklaochaoyuhua for the oath-taking ceremony as Minister of Culture set for July 3. This pause in her political trajectory could have extensive ramifications, signaling turbulent times for her and the Thai political scene. Former senator Somchai Sawaengkarn wasted no time in voicing his apprehensions about this judicial intervention. He called…
In the heart of Chiang Mai, a picturesque northern province exuberant with cultural vibrancy and vivid history, came a rather unconventional advertising stunt that had the locals buzzing with intrigue and a sprinkle of apprehension. It all began with paper posters bedecked across street corners and electricity poles, like cryptic artworks waiting to spill their secrets to the curious onlooker. The mastermind? A mysterious travel agency intent on capturing attention in an unconventional, almost scandalous, manner. The message was as dramatic as any blockbuster romance could aspire to be: “James, I know you’ve been CHEATING!!! on me with Olivia. I have PROOF!!! And now the whole of Chiang Mai will TOO.” Bold, accusatory, and with an air of a detective novel unfolding in real-time, this message promised intrigue and sordid revelations, mounting everyone’s curiosity higher than the province’s famous mountains. Enter Wirawat Buranarom, a local with a healthy dose of…
