The People’s Liberation Army Eastern Theatre Command of China declared on August 2 that the nation would carry out a series of military drills involving live fire from August 4 to August 6 close to Taiwan’s territorial seas in retaliation for US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan yesterday. China has issued a NOTAM, or Notice to Airmen, asking all Asian airlines not to fly over or close to Taiwan while the drills are in progress. The US delegation will also travel to Singapore, Malaysia, South Korea, Japan, and Malaysia. The notice stated that the drills will take place in both the air and the seas, but the government has not provided a date or any other information. The media was informed by Suttipong Kongpun, director of Thailand’s Civil Aviation Authority, that every Thai carrier had already received the warning through email.

The steadiness of administrative and office positions is preferred above the glitz and glitter of the tourism industry by young job searchers, of whom between 490,000 and 510,000 have just graduated and are now joining the workforce. Greater Bangkok accounted for just over half of all job searches on JobThai.com, with the Eastern Economic Corridor coming in second with 15.8 percent, the Northeast coming in third with 12.4 percent, the North in fourth with 8.31 percent, Central Thailand in seventh with 7.76 percent, and the South in last place with 4.73 percent. Although there are no longer any travel restrictions and the country is once again fully operational, it will take some time before tourism levels recover to where they were before the pandemic. Before then, it’s unlikely that the economy would fully recover. A study of 2 million job applications on a well-known employment website revealed that 29.7% of…
The 25-year-old German traveler flew into Thailand on July 18 to spend time in Phuket. Soon after visiting the kingdom, he began to show signs of monkeypox. The first person to test positive for monkeypox in Thailand this year was a 27-year-old Nigerian man from Phuket, and the second was a 47-year-old Thai man from Bangkok. Both are making a full recovery without using antiviral medication. In the case of an outbreak and the requirement for more vaccines, Thailand has smallpox vaccines that are 40 years old that were developed in 1979 and 1980 that can be used to immunize Thai people. The vaccines are still safe to use and 85% effective at preventing monkeypox, according to Thailand’s Department of Medical Sciences. At first, the person had a fever and swollen lymph nodes. After developing a rash on his genitalia that later expanded to the rest of his body, he…
The Thai government has published a poll with the snappy title “Foreigners’ Awareness, Confidence in Important Government Policies, and Perceived Image of Thailand.” The Kingdom does not allow visitors, expats, or foreign visitors to rant and rave about their personal pet peeves in written comments. The poll was designed by the Thai government’s public relations department with a clear title in order to gather opinions and suggestions from foreigners on a variety of current Thai-related concerns. The question concerning Thailand indicates that all responses are completely private, with the exception of the fact that it’s a Google form that requires you to sign in with your email. It was specifically asked in one query whether Thailand supported democracy. Another person questioned whether there was a free market that promoted ethical competition. Don’t get too excited, though, as the questionnaire only provides multiple-choice answers for topics the government has considered to…
As soon as the family is contacted and instructions on how to care for the deceased are obtained, the Vietnamese Embassy in Bangkok will inform them of the unfortunate incident. Three Vietnamese tourists disregarded red flag warnings that the sea was hazardous when they were guests at the Pullman Phuket Arcadia Naithon Beach. Red flags were hoisted to warn visitors about the dangers of swimming in the dangerous offshore seas, which were caused by big waves caused by strong winds. Stop swimming when you are 20 meters from the coast. Two lifeguards start their shifts at 8 a.m. and patrol the water until 6 p.m. every day at the same beach. Authorities cautioned individuals to avoid taking undue risks despite the fact that there are always lifeguards on duty to prevent more drownings. Vachira Phuket Hospital will conduct an autopsy to determine whether there were any mitigating circumstances in the…
According to the Facebook website iReview.in.th, which posts news and reviews on electronic equipment, top-up air conditioning devices use the Internet of Things to remotely operate the air conditioning system. The business in charge of it cuts off the system if consumers don’t top it off. After being tricked into purchasing two used air conditioners using a covert installment plan, a Thai woman issued a warning to the public. The woman said on social media that she ultimately made the decision to remove the two air conditioning units even though she would be out of money by 8,000 baht and that she then reported the incident to the police. She claimed that she wished to alert others to the dangers of such con games. She wrote, “Top-up air conditioner!!!” on the post. I paid 5,000 Baht each for two used air conditioners from a Facebook group, and another 3,000 Baht…

Tourists typically purchase fruit from merchants at the overlook to give to the 200 or so monkeys who live there. Fortunately, some fruit vendors have been feeding leftover fruit to the monkeys to prevent them from going hungry. Less visitors are travelling to Phuket to feed their furry companions, though, as a result of the recent monkeypox scare following the discovery of the infection in a Nigerian man. He fled to Cambodia, where he was apprehended, after authorities arrived at his condo to take him to the hospital. 27 people who had touch with the man have now been located by authorities; all of them tested negative for the virus. According to local fruit dealers, during Covid-19 limitations, more people reportedly purchased fruit for the monkeys than there are now. Still, a few visitors come to feed the monkeys, albeit only from a distance. “We throw fruits to monkeys,” a…
Dr. Kusak Kukiattikoon, director of the Phuket Provincial Public Health Office, reported that the illness had infected 42 senior citizens and three tourists. Dr. Kusak claims that on July 27, the pandemic was reported to the office. Kusak claims that some members of the household who are susceptible to infection need to undergo testing every three to five days, while others just need to do so once a week. According to Puengpan Paojinda, the center’s director, the bulk of the elderly residents there have health issues. They routinely go to hospitals for medical care, she claimed, and a hospital may have been the reason they contracted the coronavirus. According to Phuengpan, all of the elderly patients have now had X-rays of their lungs done to determine the severity of their infections. The Phuket Elder Care Development Center in Pa Khlok town is home to 75 senior persons as well as…
Anutin Charnvirakul, the minister of public health, stated that his department is organizing airport screening and concentrating on travelers from nations that are dealing with an outbreak of monkeypox. Monkeypox, according to Anutin, is not nearly as dangerous or contagious as the Covid-19 pandemic that the globe recently experienced, but it is still crucial to try to stop its further spread. However, the government is pushing for proactive measures to stop the spread as well as testing and reporting potential infections, and health authorities are stepping up their educational efforts. There are now two confirmed cases of monkeypox in Thailand. In the first, a 27-year-old Nigerian man was diagnosed on July 18 in Phuket and fled the nation by swimming into Cambodia, where he was apprehended in Phnom Penh. Although no infections have been discovered thus far, 138 tourists from Africa and 2389 travelers from Europe will have been screened…
