A stern battle against the illicit import of agricultural products into Thailand has been formally announced by the proficient Agriculture and Cooperatives Minister, Capt Thamanat Prompow. This illicit importation, he states emphatically, is the root cause of the plummeting prices of local products, which is having a detrimental effect on local farmers and the economy at large. Notably, the illegal import of frozen pig carcasses has had a particularly damaging impact on local pig agriculturalists. These smuggled supplies have dominated the local pork market, causing a significant drop in pork prices. Minister Thamanat believes strong countermeasures are imperative to rectify this repercussion, which is further exacerbating an overarching issue of undervaluation of local farm products. The Department of Special Investigation (DSI) is concurrently delving into the matter, collaborating with the Customs Department on the appropriate course of action concerning confiscated, illegally imported frozen pig carcasses. These were discovered in 161…
The serene coastal region of Chon Buri found itself embroiled in scandal when local authorities, following the directives of provincial governor Thawatchai Srithong, initiated a formal investigation into an alleged encroachment upon the land.

One could say that the expansive Andaman Sea, nestled within the lower northeast, central, eastern, and southern regions, is the cradle of life. It supports a plethora of species both above and beneath its shimmering surface. However, it also demonstrates its unyielding force through the southwestern monsoon, which continues to batter the aforementioned regions, ushering in patchy thunderstorms.

On the Andaman Sea, the waves favor a more diversified approach. One can observe waves ranging anywhere between 1 to 2 metres. However, these measly numbers tend to skyrocket during storms. The individuals in charge of navigating smaller crafts are therefore urged to exercise…
The introduction of a digital money distribution policy is under consideration, entailing a significant portion of government expenditure. The policy, as proposed by the Institute, should be used as a tool to stimulate new skill development and wage subsidies. By modifying this policy to exclusively assist those who are genuinely disadvantaged, we could dramatically reduce the required budget. This adjustment would create a sustainable policy that could provide support over a series of years, rather than only once. Today, on the 11th of September, the newly inaugurated government will present this policy proposal to the Parliament. It’s part of a wider effort to combat economic challenges through multiple quick-impact strategies. These include awarding 10,000 baht in digital currency to every individual aged 16 and above and a commitment to reducing the price of commodities like oil and electricity. These strategies are currently under intense scrutiny, particularly regarding the fiscal sustainability…
