The Expressway Authority of Thailand ( Exat ) is in charge of the Rama III-Dao Khanong-Western Outer Ring Expressway project. It is 80 % finished, and it is scheduled to open in June of next year.

The Thotsamarachan Bridge, which runs opposite to the Rama IX Bridge, is now finished, and it is scheduled to open later this year.

Next, the 8.3-kilometre elevated road project on Highway 35 ( Bang Khunthian-Ekkachai ), supervised by the Department of Highways ( DoH), is scheduled to be completed by November.

The road is split into three sections, with the first now 96 % complete, the second 93 % complete, and the third 96 % complete.

Between Phanthai Norasing and Mahachai charges, a 4-kilometer part of the raised road will be a test beginning. The beginning of this year is anticipated toward the close of the year.

Lastly, Motorway No 82, which runs from Ekkachai to Ban Phaeo and runs for a 16.3 km loop, is scheduled to be finished by June of next year. By 2027, the course will be complete. The minister confirmed that all projects are on track to be finished by June of next year by indicating that the 10 sections of the motorway are progressing from 35 % to 82 % complete.

The government has given Exat and the DoH a quarterly update on the building and abide by strict safety standards to prevent any accidents while the work is being done. The various projects are anticipated to drastically improve vehicle movement and travel convenience on Rama II Road once they are finished.

On Wednesday, Mr. Suriya told the media that there are three continued development initiatives on Highway 35, more commonly known as Rama II Road, which connects Bangkok to southern regions.

They are the Rama III-Dao Khanong-Western Outer Ring Expressway job, the Bang Khunthian-Ekkachai street development project, and the Ekkachai-Ban Phaeo road area.

The Expressway Authority of Thailand ( Exat ) is in charge of the Rama III-Dao Khanong-Western Outer Ring Expressway project. It is 80 % finished, and it is scheduled to open in June of next year.

Suriya: Tasks to get launched by June

Health experts urged the government to review the co-payments program for the general care plan, also known as the 30-baht gold card scheme, after Public Health Minister Somsak Thepsutin rejected his proposal.

Mr. Somsak stated that he no longer wanted to talk about the co-payment schedule.

” The government is doing its best to take care of people’s wellbeing. No modifications have been made”, he said on Wednesday.

After a network of hospitals and medical staff recently come out and claimed the scheme had been causing problems for state-owned hospitals, Mr. Somsak was responding to reporters ‘ questions about whether the scheme might be up for review. Many people are currently officially experiencing more individual appointments, staff shortages, and financial difficulties.

In order to ensure financial viability, the system requested that the government reform the scheme.

Former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra’s Thai Rak Thai Party, which launched the nationalist plan over the past two decades, aims to offer all Thais, particularly the poor, access to medical care.

It was first launched in 2002 with the requirement of a 30-baht co-payment per attend.

But, that was changed a few years after, giving customers the ability to receive free medical care.

Mr. Somsak expressed confidence in the government’s ability to use the federal funds to address the network’s financial problems.

” We can manage it because the amount of money that the co-payment system is missing is only 2 %, which is very little.” The operation is successful. Some individuals have criticised it despite the fact they lack the proper knowledge”, he said.

The National Health Security Office ( NHSO ) has requested an additional 7.1 billion baht to cover the losses it has already made in the absence of treating patients.

The new secretary of natural sources and environment, Chalermchai Sri-on, has been contacted by the Seub Nakhasathien Foundation to inquire about his alleged custody of 120 ray of state land.

The base emphasized that those in charge of overseeing natural resources has disqualify themselves from any participation in the possession of state land, according to media reports.

Mr Chalermchai, head of the Democrat Party, was lately appointed secretary, prompting extensive criticism among representatives who will now serve under him.

For a 120 ray area, Mr. Chalermchai declared his goods, including Phor Bor Tor 5 land, as a tax payment record that local authorities did not take into account when awarding legitimate ownership rights in 2008.

He did not declare his ownership of this area when he assumed the position of labour secretary in 2010.

The National Anti-Corruption Commission ( NACC ) is reportedly investigating this case, as well as the holdings of 20 other politicians.

Panudet Kerdmali, the foundation’s leader, told the media on Wednesday that it is necessary to emphasise the need for accountability and for leaders to avoid any engagement with state property holdings, especially in forest areas.

” I learned that the incoming government under Ms. Paetongtarn has very stringent criteria for each minister’s credentials. Therefore, I request this matter been considered thoroughly”, he said.

According to a cause from the Department of National Parks, Wildlife, and Plant Conservation, Phor Bor Tor 5 is basically a local tax pay document that does not confer ownership rights.

The source claimed that the source’s claim that the land is still considered state property and that this method of tax collection has been abolished due to the illegal encroachment of national forest reserves.

Meanwhile, Democrat secretary-general Dech-it Khaothong, the new deputy public health minister, responded to criticism related to Tedy Teow Wooi Huat, a Malaysian accused of leading a fraud syndicate who has been extradited from Thailand to China.

Mr. Dech-it claimed that there was no proof to support accusations of moral misconduct against him.

After latest decision, full jail time is longest on history, says doctors ‘ party

According to Thai Lawyers for Human Rights ( TLHR ), an appeal court on Wednesday upheld the conviction of a Chiang Rai clothing vendor in a third lese-majeste case, bringing his total prison time for the crimes to a record 54 years and 6 months.

Mongkol” Busbas” Thirakot had previously been sentenced in two different lese-majeste cases to a full of 50 years in prison, even upheld on appeal.

” This is by far the longest jail sentence given to a Section 112 accused, based on available knowledge”, TLHR said on Wednesday, referring to the part of the Criminal Code that covers royal slander.

The Chiang Rai Provincial Court had previously found Mongkol innocent of two counts of trespass and one count of trespassing in the most recent event, and the Court of Appeal Region 5 issued a statement of 4 times and 6 months.

Mongkol watched the decision, read out in the Chiang Rai Provincial Court, via a movie link from the Chiang Rai Central Prison, where he has been detained.

The Court of Appeal Region 5 upheld the 28-year prison word that a lower court had previously imposed on Mongkol in January of this year. The defendant had been found guilty of 14 der qualifications counts, each of which carries a two-year prison term.

It likewise found him guilty of a more 11 matters, each with a two-year prison term, bringing the total in the two scenarios to 50 times.

The size surpassed that of another lese-majeste accused, Anchan Preelert, a former legal servant, who was ordered to provide 43 years and six months in jail.

After engaging in a hunger strike in Chiang Rai in April 2021 to demand that political detainees in related cases be granted parole right, Mongkol was detained.

The prosecutor was informed that Mongkol published 25 Facebook posts that he claimed were critical of the king between March 2 and March 11, 2021. In those ten days, he shared a number of videos from foreign websites that contained stuff that he thought was dangerous to the monarchy. Following that, authorities discovered that he posted more offensive content on April 8 and 9 of the same year.

Mongkol claimed that he only expressed his political antagonism to the King rather than defaming the king. The judge said it was slander, and rude thoughts were used.

Section 112 maintains a maximum sentence of 3 times and a maximum sentence of 15 years for any work that defames, accusations or threatens the King, Queen, Heir-apparent or Regent. &nbsp,

Since the start of the Free Youth demonstrations in July 2020, 1, 954 people have been charged for social participation and appearance, according to TLHR data from TLHR data as of July 31 of this year. At least 272 are facing charges of lese-majesteté under Part 112, and 152 have been charged with sedition under Part 116.

PM to direct meeting on Saturday to fine-tune new government’s plan speech

The newly appointed government, led by Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra, is expected to hold a special appointment on Saturday to create a policy speech outlining the government’s goals.

The official record of 35 officials was released in the Royal Gazette on Wednesday, along with the approval of His Majesty the King, and the government has been approved. At 5 p.m. on Friday, Ms. Paetongtarn and the officials are scheduled to take the oath of office at Ambara Villa in Dusit Palace.

Before beginning job, the government must first present its policy speech to parliament. The first official case meeting is scheduled for September 17 and Ms. Paetongtarn will be expected to deliver the statement on September 11. She will formally begin her duties on September 16.

The Pheu Thai Party’s premier digital wallet flyer, which is scheduled to begin before the 2024 governmental time ends on September 30th, is at the top of the government’s plan.

Nevertheless, there will be changes to the project, Deputy Finance Minister Julapun Amornvivat admitted on Wednesday. First of all, some of the money being distributed will not be modern; in the beginning, many poor people will likely receive cash.

A secondary bill that would increase the government’s budget for the current fiscal year by 122 billion ringgit to fund the handout program has already passed the legislature.

The policy statement is an updated edition of the one presented by former prime minister Srettha Thavisin, according to a state cause, with five or six problems designated as essential.

” The modern budget plan will be included, but it is likely to be revised”, the source said.

Ms Paetongtarn was selected by the House of Representatives as prime minister on Aug 16 to remove Mr Srettha, who was dismissed by the Constitutional Court for a “gross ethics infraction” over his decision to nominate Pichit Chuenban, a former prisoner, as a PM’s Office secretary.

After being joined by a long-standing adversary, the Democrat Party, the Paetongtarn government now has the help of 322 Members in the House, excluding a faction of the Palang Pracharath Party led by Gen. Prawit Wongsuwon, who is now in charge of the party.

Pheu Thai, the main partnership party, has 17 government jobs, ministers and deputy officials, with the remaining 19 assets divided among its alliance partners.

Phumtham Wechayachai, the defense portfolio’s caregiver deputy prime minister, stated on Wednesday that the particular conference on Saturday may help partnership parties to examine and refine state policy before delivering it to parliament.

The alliance partners have been working together for more than a year, according to Mr. Phumtham, and any disputes may be resolved to find common ground.

He added that there wo n’t be any specific details in the policy statement because it will serve as a framework.

” We’ve talked about it, and there’s virtually nothing new. Although it’s a new government, the framework remains intact. Some information may get adjusted due to a changing condition”, he said.

According to Mr. Phumtham, the prime minister is quick to make connections and has demonstrated to be a competent public speaker, so she does not require training before speaking in front of the legislature or responding to MPs ‘ questions.

Family company

In response to criticism that the new government is a “family cabinet,” he also urged critics to never judge a book by its support. The censure came after former officials stepped aside to allow family members fill their jobs, perhaps spooked by the Srettha decision and its connotations.

Chada Thaised, a well-known Uthai Thani figure who was thought to be a good target of an ethics investigation, has stepped down in order for his daughter to assume the position of deputy interior minister.

In contrast, Thamanat Prompow is well known for his arrest for drug trafficking, which was determined to be inadequate to foreclose him from running for office in Thailand because it occurred in Australia. He has given his brother the title of deputy agriculture minister because he also ran short of the new ethics laws.

Mr Phumtham insisted that the ministers were selected based on their qualifications, irrespective of their family relationships.

Akanat Promphan, the coalition’s secretary-general for UTN, who will take over the case position, tore down censure on Wednesday that he had tried to defeat Yingluck Shinawatra in an effort to join the cabinet.

Mr Akanat, the son of lifelong Democrat power-broker Suthep Thaugsuban, was a key part of the now-dissolved People’s Democratic Reform Committee, which held road protests seeking to remove the Yingluck administration and finally set the stage for the 2014 defense coup.

” Making a decision is n’t easy, but I can assure you this is the best option at this moment”, Mr Akanat said.

” Threats and challenges facing the country have changed, and it’s time to close ranks”.

When an German gentleman returns home, all of his associates ‘ tests come back negative.

Public health officials announced on Wednesday that the person who had the first confirmed case of the mpox genus Ib variant that was found in Thailand had recovered and flown home.

A 66-year-old Western man who arrived in Bangkok on August 14 after leaving Africa tested positive for genus Bsc.

On August 15, one evening after arriving in Bangkok, he was admitted to a doctor. The variant was identified as genus Ib in laboratory tests.

The victim’s lesions have thoroughly dried, allowing him to be discharged from the hospital and returning home, said Dr Thongchai Keeratihatthayakorn, director-general of the Department of Disease Control.

No attacks were discovered despite the fact that all 43 people who had had direct contact with the man had been tested.

” The first case of mpox genus Bi is now resolved, with no further transmission to people”, said Dr Thongchai. ” We continue to monitor new cases carefully, especially those coming from regions where the World Health Organization has declared epidemics,” he continued.

In a briefing on Wednesday, the Department of Medical Science revealed that laboratory tests for the very aggressive clade Ib strain, in particular, have proved to be very effective.

The second genus Ib feature case was identified through lab testing using real-time PCR to confirm it. Whole genome scanning more confirmed the possibility that it might be the genus Ib stress.

In order to prevent the spread of subfamily Ib in the nation, the department has collaborated with appropriate departments to continue monitoring the mutations of mpox strains.

This includes assessing the affect of mutations, developing clinical guidelines that are compatible with the types and levels of disease strains discovered, enhancing medical standards, and strengthening coordination with important organizations to effectively control the spread.

Some consumers may obtain cash, details coming in fresh president’s policy statement

Deputy Finance Minister Julapun Amornvivat has conceded that the president’s 10, 000-baht handout program needs some modification, including giving money instead of online money to some recipients.

Many requests lodged against the president’s premier policy were partly to blame for the need for specific shifts, he said on Wednesday.

According to him, another adjustments are being made in response to the numerous positive feedback offered to improve the program.

Up until 50 million eligible Thai adults over the age of 16 were given 10, 000 baht in electronic money under the initial policy. Some economists said the 500-billion-baht program do not provide the economic raise envisioned by the Pheu Thai-led authorities.

However, according to Mr. Julapun, the new Paetongtarn Shinawatra leadership then needs to make changes to prevent running into some of the issues that were previously mentioned by express organizations, economists, and the opposition.

” I have to admit that some changes are needed, including handing out cash]to vulnerable groups ]”, he said. We still need to talk with all the other coalition events about what the final information will look like.

It appears likely that money may be distributed this quarter to about 15 million position security customers for the time being. Some of the intended consumers do not have phones or are unfamiliar with digital systems, so it would take the form of income.

The government will consider whether and how to maintain the handouts to 35 million people when the new macroeconomic season kicks off on October 1.

The digital wallet did undoubtedly persist, according to Mr. Julapun, who has already enrolled through the government’s Thang Rath application.

In addition to putting money into the financial structure, he said, another crucial goal of the program is to create a new digital economy facilities for Thailand.

Information may be revealed when the new government’s plan speech is presented in congress later this month, Mr. Julapun said, avoiding giving specifics about what other potential adjustments were being taken into account.

All he could state was that the remaining 122 billion baht from the governmental 2024 and more from the 2025 funds, which are currently being scrutinized in the Lower House, would be used solely for economic stimulus purposes.

The anticipated influence of the stimulus has been subject to a lot of debate, with some critics claiming that despite its high cost, it will only have a minimal impact. Mr. Julapun predicted to see both positive and negative effects of any revision.

He said,” Here in Thailand, we have so many petitioners whose petitions have become obstacles to the government’s efforts to boost the economy and the well-being of the people.”

” These requests have likewise shattered the trust of the country’s consumers and investors,” the statement reads.
