In a surprising turn of events at Phuket International Airport, a typical day was briefly interrupted when a suspicious motorcycle, discovered to harbor a clandestine explosive device, was parked about 200 meters from the passenger terminal. The incident unfolded on the afternoon of June 25, as the airport’s bustling atmosphere was momentarily paused, but not entirely disrupted. The drama began when Phuket Provincial Police, following a crucial intelligence lead, orchestrated a tactical operation to detain a suspect believed to be plotting against the airport. The motorcycle, which had been abandoned, was found to hold more than just mechanical parts—it contained a ticking time bomb. The Region 8 Police Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) unit swiftly descended on the scene, their K9 companions confirming the grim presence of explosives. Despite an initial attempt to delicately deactivate the device, the complexities of its circuitry prompted a decisive measure to safely obliterate the explosive,…

In a peculiar display of inebriated defiance, a legless British tourist managed to bring the bustling heart of Pattaya to a screeching halt. The unconventional episode unfolded at the stroke of 5 PM on June 23, when bewildered drivers caught sight of a foreign man lounging leisurely across the entrance to Soi 11, just a stone’s throw from Pattaya Central Road. At the helm of the situation was Senior Officer Sub-Lieutenant Suchart Dusadee, who led a police patrol to address the curious roadblock. Upon arrival, they were greeted by the sight of a man in his 30s, enjoying a strange road-side siesta. There he lay, stretched out without a care, on the unforgiving asphalt, traffic piling up behind him like an exasperated chorus line. Attempts by locals and tourists alike to coax him from his lounging were met with stubborn refusal. One onlooker recounted the scene, shaking his head in…

In recent times, the bustling Chong Chom border market, located in the Dan subdistrict of Kap Choeng district in Surin province, has experienced a noticeable decrease in activity. This transformation is not due to a lack of goods or interest but a conscious decision made by Cambodian vendors to temporarily shutter their shops and make their way back across the border. This initiative was suggested by local authorities as a preventive measure until the border tensions ease. The calls from officials for cooperation prompted many vendors to commence a wave of sales, offering irresistible discounts ranging from 40 to 50% on various items, including shoes, mattresses, and even underwear. This effort is aimed at accumulating the necessary funds for their journey home, signaling a sense of urgency to mitigate the financial strain this situation imposes. The presence of military security officers, local administrators, and immigration officials at the Chong Chom…

The sun had scarcely risen when Pattaya’s notorious nightlife surged into daytime mayhem. Just a stone’s throw from the city’s legendary Walking Street, a wild melee ensued, capturing the chaos on a video clip that’s become the talk of the town. All this while the bars around blared beats as if the night had no end. This particular brawl erupted behind the Marine Hotel in South Pattaya, where onlookers, both Thai and foreign, encouraged the spectacle with rowdy enthusiasm. Even as the morning light streamed down, music pounded from a near-by bar, stirring questions about Pattaya’s enforcement (or lack thereof) of bar closing hours. At the heart of the chaos, two Thai women engaged in a feisty exchange of blows right in the soi. In the midst of this, a brave foreign tourist attempted to intervene, but the scene took another twist as two foreign men joined the fray, with…

Thailand is bracing for a stormy political showdown as the Constitutional Court prepares to weigh in on the fate of Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra. The buzz centers around an explosive leaked audio clip featuring a conversation with the former Cambodian leader, Hun Sen. As tensions escalate like the stifling Bangkok heat, all eyes are on the court as it deliberates on whether to temporarily suspend the Prime Minister. In the eye of this political hurricane is veteran judge Jaral Phakdeethanakul, who has taken the airwaves by storm, predicting an imminent suspension for Paetongtarn. Speaking with the gravitas of a seasoned benchwarmer now free to express a candid opinion, Jaral laid his cards on the table during a live call with Nation TV’s Kom Chad Luek. He foresaw the court agreeing to scrutinize the petition against Paetongtarn, filed by Senate Speaker Mongkol Surasajja, warning of an immediate suspension as July 1st…

JAKE PAUL claims he would beat Canelo Alvarez in the ring or STREETS and warned: “I would literally rip his heart out.”

The YouTuber-turned-boxer and Mexican legend were close to agreeing a shock May 3 bout in Las Vegas – until Canelo walked away.

Canelo recently told TalkTV’s Piers Morgan that Paul’s life was SAVED after the collapse of their mega-bout.

But 11-1 Paul hit back: “My response is he’s 5’8. Like, I’ll see that guy anywhere and end his life for real. He doesn’t want the smoke.

“I’ll beat him in boxing but at the end of the day, if it was just man on man in the street, I would literally rip his heart out.”

Canelo, 34, instead signed a four-bout deal with Saudi Arabia’s Turki Alalshikh and regained his undisputed throne by beating William Scull, 32, in May.

Now he takes all four super-middleweight world titles into his September 13 blockbuster against Terence Crawford, 37, in Vegas.

So Paul, 28, instead returns on Saturday against former middleweight world champ Julio Cesar Chavez Jr, 39, in California on DAZN PPV.

But he still wants to settle the score with Canelo in the ring – audaciously planning to do so for a cruiserweight belt.

Paul said: “I think it has to happen at some point.

“And especially get through this fight, get ranked, go for the world championship, have the cruiserweight belt and then me and Canelo can fight for the cruiserweight world championship.”

Paul’s only defeat came against Tommy Fury, 26, in Saudi Arabia – losing a split-decision.

But he has since bounced back with five wins – most recently against Mike Tyson who controversially came out of retirement in November aged 58.

Paul is in line for a surprise ranking with the WBC and WBA by beating Chavez – who is not currently rated within the governing bodies.

Paul said: “To become world champion I need to be ranked. That’s what this fight is all about beating Chavez in a great fashion.

“We’ll see where the WBA and WBC rank me and then hopefully I’ll be able to go for a world title.”
