The primary and most direct route connects Bangkok to the southern area, including the beach city of Hua Hin in Prachuap Khiri Khan territory, via Rama 2 Road. Officials from the government and the government concur that Rama 2’s congestion hurts tourism because both local and foreign tourists frequently travel to different locations to minimize traffic jams.

Although the development of an road above the street from Bangkok to Samut Sakhon is intended to shorten travel times, delays in the construction and the regular mishaps and road closures have added yet more congestion, especially on weekends and much public holidays.

Past fatalities have been the result of design incidents on Rama 2 Road. One of the accidents occurred on November 29 of last year when a rope broke, leaving six people dead and eight injured. A rope broke, killing a contractor, and causing the helicopter’s lifting basket to slide, in a second accident that occurred on January 18, 2014. A falling cement slab fatally struck a worker in May 2023.

Govt reassures union in the midst of the quality

The Foreign Affairs Ministry, which acknowledged the European Parliament’s resolution on Thursday condemning Thailand for the deportation of Uyghurs to China and related issues related to its lese-majeste law, expressed its commitment to continue cooperating and working with the European Union ( EU).

On Friday, spokesman Nikorndej Balankura reiterated the ministry’s assertion that Beijing has assured it that the 40 Tamils who were just repatriated after being detained in Thailand are secure and that Thai authorities will visit them to check their condition.

Regarding the 44 ex-MFP MPs who were accused by the National Anti-Corruption Commission ( NACC ) of breaking ethical standards for sponsoring a bill amending Section 112 of the Criminal Code, also known as the lese-majeste law, Mr. Nikorndej said the case is being handled in accordance with Thai law.

According to Mr. Nikorndej, Thailand and the Euro both value their agreement and the vibrancy of positive relationships under the EU-Thailand Comprehensive Partnership and Cooperation Agreement.

Despite reports that other safe havens have offered them to absorb them, the Thai government claims that the Thai government has broken international law by deporting the Uyghur immigrants given the risk they face arbitrary detention, abuse, and serious human rights violations.

At least five of their contemporaries, including minors, apparently died while they were imprisoned in Thai emigration centers for more than ten years as a result of brutal conditions.

The speech claims that Thailand’s lese-majeste measures conflict with the kingdom’s obligations under the ICCPR.

The Thai government is being ordered by the European Parliament to block any more forced resettlement of migrants, asylum seekers, and social dissidents.

It urged the Thai authorities to grant the UNHCR unlimited access to all Uyghur asylum applicants who were detained and provide truthful information about their reputation.

Thailand is a significant EU companion, and the European Parliament urged it to improve its institutions in accordance with political principles.

In order to protect the right to free speech, quiet assembly, and social participation, it demanded that the government make changes or amend Section 112 and other oppressive laws.

It urged that all MPs and activists who were charged or imprisoned under lese-majeste legislation receive amnesty.

Additionally, it demanded that the European Commission (EC ) use the free trade area (FTA ) negotiations to pressure the government into ratifying all important International Labour Organization ( ILO ) conventions and to reform any repressive laws, release political prisoners, and stop deporting Uyghur refugees.

Additionally, the EC chairman was given the task of delivering this quality to the European Council, European Commission, Thai, and Chinese authorities.

Pichai Naripthaphan, the minister of commerce, yesterday tried to quell worries about any possible effect on the EU’s continued FTA negotiations.

He told the Union that the prime minister wanted the FTA to been finalized by the end of this year.

The next round of FTA negotiations will be held by the Union between March 31 and April 4, according to Chotima Iemsawasdikul, director-general of the Department of Trade Agreements. She continued,” There are no indications of any wait.”

The Thai Meteorological Department ( TMD) has issued a weather warning for tomorrow through Thursday, which will show an unseasonal drop in the temperature and stormy conditions.

Upper Thailand did experience unpredictable conditions, including storms, thunder, and potential lightning strikes, according to Deputy TMD Director-General Natthawut Daendee.

Temperatures in the northern provinces will fall by 5-8 degrees Celsius following these conditions, while those in various regions will drop by 2-4 degrees.

20 % of the area in Bangkok is expected to experience storms, with temperatures as low as 26C between monday and Thursday.

The polar swirl, which can increase from the North Pole to warmer parts, has a major role in this phenomenon, despite China’s warm air mass being its primary source.

The Gulf of Thailand, southern regions, and the Andaman Sea are expected to experience storms in the south due to east and southerly breezes.

Thailand has previously experienced heat falls over the summer, most prominently in 2011 and 2016 and 2022.

Bangkok, which was in fifth place last month, comes in second place on Time Out magazine’s record of the country’s 20 Best Cities of 2025, following New Orleans in the US.

Bangkok’s rise was mostly attributable to the extraordinary palatability of its meals and simple access, according to deputy government spokeswoman Sasikarn Wattanachan, who released the rankings yesterday.

The study found that the state’s foods scene offers high-quality foods that are quick and convenient, from quick-service street vendors that serve dishes right away to food delivery services that let everyone eat whatever they like.

Bangkok is regarded as a cooking gateway rather than a place for fine dining, according to the survey. According to the survey, Yaowarat ( Chinatown ) continues to be the city’s top gastronomic destination, known for its famous dishes like guay jab ( rolled noodle soup with pork ), late-night rice porridge and wok-toasted chestnuts, as well as nightly cocktail bars.

Banthat Thong Road, formerly a quiet neighborhood, has just been named the nation’s 14th best streets by Time Out, making it a buzzing food hotspot. According to the survey, the city will become even more appealing to international chefs if more mid-level restaurants start serving up imaginative yet inexpensive dishes.

walkways and paths in 50 towns vying for attention

This year, the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration ( BMA ) had mapped out its plans to renovate 62 roads and pavements in all of the capital’s districts.

According to BMA official Aekvarunyoo Amrapala, the job,” Great streets in 50 regions,” aims to provide capital residents with commuter-friendly, clean, healthy, and ordered roads and walkways.

According to Mr. Aekvarunyoo, the project’s distribution aims to improve three components of the streets and sidewalks, including the bodily aspect, such as resurfacing to prevent flooding brought on by heavy rain.

Walkways must adhere to the general style standard to make them as visible and comfortable for people of all ages and abilities. He said they must be appropriately lit and supported by effective CCTV cameras and traffic signals.

The other two sections include improvements to the work and the culture of the streets and sidewalks, such as removing food stalls and bicycle taxis from walkways, as well as efforts to monitor if waste is released from buildings.

Additionally, Mr. Aekvarunyoo said there are plans to grow more trees, both on traffic islands and on sidewalks, and to establish a better trash collection system.

He claimed that the construction project covers 62 roads and hundreds of kilometers across all districts.

Bangkok will remain cleaner and more tolerable once it is finished, according to the director. He claimed that adding more green space will help to reduce waste and lower heat while also improving people’s health.

He claimed that wonderful roads will draw more town walkers and encourage people to spend more time outdoors, which will benefit local economies and tourism.

The BMA would like to thank everyone for their assistance, both by keeping the streets tidy and by sharing pictures of beautiful streets and transportation islands [in several districts ],” he continued.

This demonstrates that Bangkok is changing for the better with the help of everyone.

The prime minister has stated that she is pleased with the results of an e-cigarette assault, but that she believes that authorities must crack down on virtual channels.

Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra vowed to tackle” the person’s biggest pain” by posting a message on the app X yesterday.

The prime minister stated that the data for the two days since I began the assault show progress.

” There are 1, 078 scenarios involving 1, 104 accused being processed and 900, 444 confiscated goods worth 118, 953, 915 baht”, she said.

Following a meeting on the progress of raids and seizures that Ms. Paetongtarn chaired on the subject, Prime Minister Jiraporn Sindhuprai and the Royal Thai Police (RTP ) also attended.

The primary minister stated on X that serious problems included the trafficking of cigarettes across borders and easy access to vaporizers on social media.

What I discussed at the meeting was e-cigarettes that had been modified to have narcotics. Some people use cigarettes as a means of drug use, and this could lead to a youth drug habit, she said.

After the conference, Ms. Jiraporn claimed that the crackdown data for the past two weeks were comparable to those for the entire year 2024.

No criminals, whether large or small, will been spared, she declared. ” Large-scale providers will be subject to legal action, while smaller dealers will be traced back to major vendors,” the statement read.

According to Ms. Jiraporn, the Customs Department, the Ministry of Interior, the Office of the Consumer Protection Board, and the RTP collaborated on the onslaught. The Anti-Money Laundering Office was in charge of looking into items that had been sequestered for$ 500 or more, with lesser-value items being dealt with by the police.

Over 9, 000 online income programs have been shut down.
