Chinese professional Wang Xing, also known as Xingxing, has been missing since crossing the border into Myanmar, according to Thai officials in Tak, and they are looking for him.

A safety supply in Tak reported on Tuesday that Thai authorities had contacted all Myanmari authorities to assist in the hunt for the artist, who, according to CCTV footage, had assuredly entered the country from Ban Mae Kon Ken in the Mae Sot city of Tak.

The actor’s family reported him missing, according to the Chinese embassy in Bangkok, and the Taiwanese consulate-general in Chiang Mai state said they were trying to locate him and that the Chinese embassy in Bangkok had received it.

After being invited to attend an interview, the comedian reportedly kept Shanghai Pudong aircraft and arrived at Suvarnabhumi aircraft outside of Bangkok on Friday, at around 3 a.m.

He made the trip via Chai Nat and Kamphaeng Phet regions to the Mae Sot city of Tak from the aircraft. He was last seen in Mae Sot around 10.10am on Friday near the border there.

Red Line, double-track work to begin’ rapidly’

The Transport Ministry is aiming to establish some essential public transport projects at the start of this year, pending the cabinet’s approval, in a bid to boost the nation’s connectivity.

According to Transport Minister Suriya Jungrungreangkit, these projects include the expansion of the State Railway of Thailand’s ( SRT ) Dark Red and Light Red lines and the second phase of double-track upgrades on key stretches in the North, Northeast and South.

Altogether, these tasks require 319 billion ringgit in assets to carry out.

The SRT wants the funds to increase from the latest 6.4 billion ringgit, he said, even though the first one, which would see Rangsit and Thammasat University’s Rangsit Campus connected by an 8.84 kilometer extension of the Dark Red energy commuter rail line, had already been approved in December.

The next project, which may depart from the main Light Red Line, is the building of a 20-kilometer drive line connecting Siriraj Hospital to Salaya.

According to Mr. Suriya, the project will begin once it has received final approval from the Office of the National Economic and Social Development Council ( NESDC ) and the Budget Bureau.

The next job, the second phase of double-track updates on important extends in the North, Northeast and South, may cost about 297 billion ringgit to complete.

It will see the one record on six routes– At Nam Pho-Den Chai, Den Chai-Chiang Mai, Jira Junction-Ubon Ratchathani, Hat Yai Junction-Padang Besar, Chumphon-Surat Thani, and Surat Thani-Hat Yai-Songkhla– upgraded to two tracks to increase efficiency.

Veeris Ammarapala, SRT chancellor, said the double-track switch project may be proposed to the case maybe this month.

Once it receives the commission’s assent, the SRT will start the buying process for purchasing and building, starting with the Pak Nam Po-Den Chai and Jira Junction-Ubon Ratchathani sections.

The last to be upgraded will be the Den Chai-Chiang Mai section, as its Environmental Impact Assessment ( EIA ) is still being reviewed, Mr Veeris said.

According to Deputy Prime Minister Prasert Jantararuangtong, the government will initiate discussions on the drive to legalize online gaming.

He urged authorities from all ministries concerned to start synchronizing their discussions and efforts because several constitutional amendments will need to be passed for online betting to be legal.

According to Mr. Prasert, who is also minister of the Digital Economy and Society ( DES ) on Monday, a formal study of the plan is scheduled to be finished in a few months.

The former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra made the announcement after saying in Chiang Rai on Sunday that regulating online gambling may benefit society as well as the business.

Mr. Prasert acknowledged that Thai students ‘ attitudes toward online gaming have been linked to a number of social issues as well as criminal behavior.

Directly, online gaming has also been tied to the increase of “mules” opening substitute bank records and schemes.

But, he added, online betting platforms see huge amounts of money go through them every moment, which, if taxed effectively, “would be great for the economy”.

When asked about Thaksin’s plan to ban people under the age of 20 from accessing online gambling sites, Mr. Prasert responded that there haven’t been any debate on this.

The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration ( BMA ) has cancelled street vending at two key locations in Pathumwan district to ensure the capital’s pavements remain safe, clean, and accessible.

One of them is located in Ton Son on Ploenchit Road, which recently hosted 17 suppliers, and the other is in front of the Siam Scape tower, where nine sellers operated.

Since Jan 1, the BMA has forbid the contractors from conducting business at these two areas.

In order to reorganize the open area and reduce the impact on customers in the area, the BMA will also speak with three flower vendors close to the Ratchaprasong intersection’s Erawan Shrine.

In Pathumwan area, there are now 13 places where 222 sellers are permitted to operate.

Originally, the city company had set up two hawker areas that could provide 122 sellers at Lumpini Park Gate 5 and at Ratchadamri crossing.

Deputy Bangkok government Jakkapan Phiewngam, accompanied by Supakrit Boonkhan, the BMA’s assistant continuous minister, on Monday inspected the two locations and visited vending areas in Bang Rak area to ensure compliance with regulations.

The BMA moved the sellers to Silom Soi 10 in place of the city vending on a bend of Silom Road in October of last year, starting at Silom Soi 12 and ending at the Shangarila cafe.

In Bang Rak area, there are already 32 locations where 618 city sellers are permitted to operate.

Mr. Jakkapan directed local authorities to completely enact laws requiring the enforcement of bans on selling in prohibited areas and requiring vendors to adhere to standards in accordance with the law governing public order and hygiene.

After a senator questioned the Department of Lands ‘ ( DoL ) investigation procedure, deputy prime minister Anutin Charnvirakul has insisted that the Ministry of Interior has handled the Khao Kradong land dispute case lawfully and fairly.

Mr. Anutin, who is also the Interior Minister, attended an Upper House meeting on Monday to discuss the property dispute in Buri Ram territory.

Senator Nantana Nantavaropas claimed at the meeting that the Central Administrative Court ordered the State Railway of Thailand ( SRT ) and the DoL to work together to investigate the 5 083 rai boundary line in the Khao Kradong area on March 30, 2023.

The debate involves 900 property title deeds, 12 of which, in overall, numbered 179 ra, apparently belonged to the Chidchob household.

Ms. Nantana claimed at the time of the meeting that one of the four DoL members of the probe committee was the SAO’s chief, whose name bears the initial” Sor” and has the initial” Sor.”

The senator questioned the legitimacy of the visit of this person, claiming that they had previously competed in the SAO key election for the” Phuan Navin Group,” which was allegedly connected to the Chidchob family.

Despite the Supreme Court’s decision in 2021 that the property belongs to the SRT, it was revealed on October 22 that the land committee had voted to reject the property papers.

The question is “how the Interior Ministry does resolve the issue and if the DoL may be forced to comply with the court buy,” said Ms. Nantana.

Mr. Anutin responded by saying he had no knowledge of or connections to the lawmaker Ms. Nanthana mentioned.

He resisted that Section 61 of the Criminal Code be applied to the establishment of the council.

” I commanded that both parties ‘ inquiries been conducted in the most fair manner.” He declared,” I have never and will never unjustly interfere in the function of the authority.”

Mr. Anutin added that the Criminal Court’s decision was made in connection with claims brought by SRT and landowners.

” The Criminal Court attempt did not cover all disputed property, nor refer to all 5, 083 ray of disputed land”, said Mr Anutin, adding that the judge order was misinterpreted and unjustly claimed.

To protect themselves from staphylococcus suis, also known as hearing loss illness, which can be dangerous, people are advised to avoid eating raw and uncooked pork.

The warning comes in response to reports of an increase in cases over some provinces ‘ extended vacations.

More individuals were discovered to have contracted the disease after eating raw and uncooked bacon, according to Dr. Taweechai Visanuyothin, director of the Department of Disease Control’s Regional Office 9 in Nakhon Ratchasima.

There were 197 recorded instances of hearing loss temperature between Jan 1 last year and Jan 2 this year, with 22 deaths occurring in regions under Regional Office 9’s care. Nakhon Ratchasima had the most cases ( 120 ) and deaths ( 10 ), followed by Chaiyaphum ( 37 cases and 7 deaths ) and Surin ( 24 cases and 3 deaths ).

He stated that meat may be cooked at 70 degrees Fahrenheit or higher for at least 10 days before being safe to eat. He continued,” Put meat is cooked by squeezing lime juice over it.”

Dr. Taweechai even advised those who prepare food to be aware that they could contract the disease from open wounds and that they should use gloves when handling the meat. Symptoms include a fever, fatigue, dizziness, irregular heartbeat, bad eyesight, low blood pressure, and hearing damage.

Phumtham Wechayachai, the deputy prime minister, reaffirmed that the alliance parties are still united and that any speculation about a cabinet reshuffle is unfounded.

Mr. Phumtham criticized talk of a cabinet shake-up as absurd and demanded that the media use reliable sources because they would serve as social tools that would conflate.

After being questioned in the media about past leading Thaksin Shinawatra’s remarks regarding UTN leader and energy minister Pirapan Salirathavibhaga, the media received questions about his remarks.

On Sunday, Thaksin, commonly seen as Pheu Thai Party’s de-facto head, denied rumours that Mr Pirapan may be removed from the government and said no government change was planned just yet.

Mr. Pirapan apparently faced fierce opposition from the party because he spearheaded a campaign to lower energy costs. According to reports, group financiers and executives were unsatisfied.

Mr. Phumtham assured that the government change may not occur without the consent of Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra.

” I can assure you that a cabinet reshuffle won’t be occurring anywhere quickly. There has been no concern to support such conversations”, he said.

Some social observers, including Mr. Phumtham, said he disagrees with their predictions for an increase in political conflicts this year. Economists are free to express their opinions, but he claimed that all coalition parties think there is nothing to worry about.

He added that a no-confidence conversation between the coalition parties is unnecessary because the opposition has not yet moved a movement.

In yet another growth, Mr. Pirapan stated to the Senate on Monday that he has been working to revolution the energy industry in the interest of the general public.

He was responding to questions from Senator Noraset Pratchayakorn regarding the president’s energy reform strategy and alleged attempt by power companies to thwart these work.

” I’m not an investment. If you follow the news, you’ll discover I’ve suspended whatever deemed inappropriate. I have no vested attention”, he said.

” I’m doing my work under the government’s plan and instructions, which are to ensure the world’s power protection”.

Thaksin’s remarks on American people draw criticism

A lawmaker demanded a public apologies for the racist remarks made by Pheu Thai’s de facto leader, Thaksin Shinawatra, at a campaign rally in Chiang Rai.

A Pheu Thai candidate running for the Chiang Rai provincial administration organization ( PAO ) elections, Thaksin delivered a speech to encourage more Thais to find employment in the entertainment sector.

Nevertheless, he made disparaging remarks about concepts from Africa in his conversation, which were widely seen as sexist.

” American people are hired for thousands of baht to get designs because they have dark skin and smooth faces that make it difficult to breathe.” Thai citizens look much better. There’s no need for]our people to find ] nose, neck or shoulder enhancement.

” It’s time to promote more Thais, including those from racial organizations like the Karen, who possess healthy beauty, to be global designs, “he said.

Senator Angkhana Neelapaijit pleaded on Monday with Thaksin to apologize in public.

” For notes violate the constitution and the standards of different international organisations, which Thailand is a group to,” she said.

” A person’s prejudice is based on their skin color is a significant issue. I want Thaksin to apologise for his notes,” she said.

Ms Angkhana, a past member of the National Human Rights Commission, even urged Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra, Thaksin’s child, to take the matter seriously.

I hope the excellent minister won’t ignore the problem and let it go. It should not be allowed to happen afterwards …]especially since ] Thailand has applied to visit the United Nations Human Rights Council and made many vows on… human rights and fighting prejudice,” she said.

Despite the controversy, Pheu Thai applicants are also eager to own Thaksin assist them in their election campaign.

Previous Pheu Thai MP for Nong Khai, Krissada Tanterdthid, announced that Thaksin may travel to the northern province on January 19 to support a PAO vote chief candidate’s campaign for votes.

On January 24, Pheu Thai member Wiwatchai Hotrawaisaya announced that Thaksin had been asked to support his campaign there.

” We are waiting for his assurance. We want him to support his election plan, Mr. Wiwatchai stated.

Mr Wiwatchai’s primary ballot enemy is Wichit Traisaranakul, a previous Si Sa Ket PAO captain and the parents of Traisuree Taisaranakul, minister to Interior Minister and Bhumjaithai Party chief Anutin Charnvirakul. In addition to the PAO general elections on February 1, Thaksin will assist party candidates in canvassing for votes in 16 provinces, according to Pheu Thai resources.

On Jan 12, he is scheduled to travel to Lampang to support Tuangrat Lohsuntorn, a girl of Phairoj Lohsuthorn, a Pheu Thai record MP, plan.

Lampang was again a Pheu Thai stronghold, but in the 2023 vote, the now-dissolved Move Forward Party, which has been reborn as the Women’s Party, won three of the four divisions in the state.

So, Thaksin’s help is needed to maintain Pheu Thai’s win it, the resources said.

According to the sources, Thaksin may also travel to Northeastern regions, which the party had previously lost to Bhumjaithai.

Thaksin may assist Bhumphan Boonmatun’s plan for seats in the Bueng Kan PAO election on January 19. Bueng Kan is a Bhumjaithai enclave.

Pheu Thai and Bhumjaithai will likely face off in a furious fight, as did Wanfa Thongsri, the woman of Deputy Interior Minister Songsak Thongsri, will play a part in the fight.
