The Social Development Office has made plans to stop the spread of Covid-19 in school development centers&nbsp throughout Bangkok. &nbsp,

As the new school term begins, SDO producer Kanjana Phupipatthanaphon stressed the importance of adhering to DMHT methods, such as distancing (1-2 meters between people ), mask wearing, hand washing, and heat checks.

District offices in charge of overseeing daycare centers were instructed to strictly adhere to the covid-19 prevention and control measures, she said. This included using alcohol-based hand sanitizers, using masks, bringing in children, teachers, and other team every night before they enter the building.

Families were advised to take a baby home for care and isolate them from good children if they showed signs of respiratory condition, such as a headache, fever, coughing, runny nose, breathing difficulties, or sore throat.

Parents may be advised to seek medical attention and keep the child at home until they are fully recovered, and the infant should be tested with an ATK system.

Additionally, the SDO mandated regular maintenance of all features, tools, toys, and common areas. Every school may have handwashing facilities with soap and clean waters or alcohol-based hand antiseptics.

Schools may be well-ventilated, and rooms must be cleaned at least thrice a day. Students and staff may adopt another infection prevention strategies, such as mask-wearing and handwashing, if venting is limited.

A child should be treated at a healthcare facility if it is discovered that they are sick or infected with covid-19. The SDO producer said that the school health nurse or the local public health service&nbsp, center may be contacted to check and control the pandemic in the event of a swarm of five or more cases.

The Department of Mineral Resources warned residents in 22 provinces and the district of Columbia on Wednesday and Thursday to be prepared for possible floods and forest runoff, with heavy weather forecast for much of the nation, according to the Department of Mineral Resources. &nbsp,

Upper Thailand is blanketed by a south wind, which causes large rain and falls over 100mm, with rain falling over 100mm in 24 hours. The department said that the saturated ground could only carry a certain amount of water, and continued rain could cause landslides if it was left untreated.

The report named the counties of Kamphaeng Phet, Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Mae Hong Son, Lampang, Payao, Prae, Uttaradit, Nan, Phitsanulok, Uthai Thani, Lopburi, Sa Kaeo, Rayong, Chanthaburi, Nakhon Ratchasima, Chumphon, Ranong, Phang Nga, Phuket, Nakhon Si Thammarat, and Surat Thani

B4.4 million plan prompts health bills

A British man, age 21, is recovering from life-changing injury after falling from Na Mueang 2 Waterfall in Koh Samui, Surat Thani, prompting his girlfriend to build a £100,000 ( 4.4 million baht ) fundraising campaign to pay for his mounting medical bills and handle an urgent return to the UK.

Since the UK’s Daily Mirror news reported the incident on May 3, the situation has attracted the attention of the general public. Liam Gibson, a member of the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Professionals ( REME), allegedly fell from the river while attempting to take a picture on April 12 and sustained severe injuries, according to the document.

The pair reportedly noticed the place being widely promoted on social media as a must-see area. It appeared to be a fun time away. But we didn’t realize the consequences until it was too late, his partner Lucy Burnett said.

In a Paypal appeal, Ms. Burnett described the tragic incident as” a life-changing incident in Thailand where he slipped off the edge while innocently taking a image.”

She claimed that her boyfriend, a British man, has been in the military for five years and has organized numerous charity events for different causes.

She continued,” We next had two days to wait for a rescue group in which Liam was in a horrifying condition with legs sticking out of his limbs, broken legs everywhere, completely shattered experience and forehead and bleeding out quickly”!

” It took the rescue team three hours to transport him down the mountain to the hospital once they had reached us.” When we arrived at the hospital, we discovered that he had broken his right arm, his left hand, his eye socket, cheekbone, head, and bones, and had several opened wounds to the spine on his left knee. He had also broken his right arm in three pieces.

He has since had three major surgeries, numerous blood transfusions, antibiotics, and medications, and has been in the hospital always since. He is still awaiting his main operation to repair his femur and allow him to eventually learn to walk once more.

Ms. Burnett has launched a GoFundMe fundraising campaign in an apparent bid to raise money to cover both his medical costs and the cost of a pilot jet.

We both did not want to make this GoFundMe, she wrote. But this is our final choice… He must pay this bill before leaving the hospital.

Mr. Gibson has received treatment at Bangkok Hospital in Samui, according to a nearby cause. According to the cause, Mr. Gibson’s lack of vacation insurance made his treatment and repatriation more difficult. Due to individual confidentiality, the hospital has never permitted press interviews or interviews.

At Na Mueang 2 Waterfall, there has been a horror before, but this is not the first day.

The site has experienced a number of fatalities in recent years, including two that occurred in 2019 and an American tourist in 2024. Both victims died after crossing safety barriers. The area is still popular with tourists looking for spectacular photos despite visible signage warning people against climbing the waterfall’s upper levels, according to the source.

More and more people are calling for stronger health measures, including restricting exposure to hazardous areas of the site or installing railings.

Upon completion, there will be costs of money fraud.

According to the Department of Special Investigation ( DSI), about 1,200 suspects are being looked into for their involvement in money laundering linked to vote-rigging in the last year’s Senate election.

Pol Maj Woranan Srilam, a spokesman for the DSI, stated on Tuesday that the DSI and the Election Commission (EC ) are jointly conducting the investigation.

According to him, the DSI has been handling claims of money laundering and the activity of an improper secret organization in connection with the poll held in June of last year, adding that operating a system with illicit funds is prohibited by the Anti-Money Laundering Act.

He said that when income is acquired by a company, it is deemed to be connected to money laundering techniques.

Prior to the most recent Senate elections, Pol Maj Woranan stated that the DSI would review the financial audits of assets and money acquired through transactions at the neighborhood, municipal, and national levels.

The official said anyone who backed vote-rigging in the vote will also face charges under Sections 5 and 9 of the Anti-Money Laundering Act.

” An preliminary investigation by the DSI has discovered that about 1, 200 people are suspected of being involved in relevant financial purchases,” he said.

He continued,” The DSI will summon them so that they can discover their arguments and accept the fees.”

The DSI may phone in the first batch of offenders this month, according to sources at the company.

The EC’s investigation will examine whether offenders may be disqualified, according to Pol Maj Woranan, who stated that the investigation is focusing on Senate election rules violations. Additionally, it may ask for their election right to be revoked by the Supreme Court.

He stated that the DSI will launch criminal prosecution against those who are accused of laundering money and operating an improper secret organization.

Six of the 53 lawmakers reportedly a part of the vote-rigging investigation were served summonses by the EC and the DSI on May 9.

EC officers gave confirmation that the first round had been approved and that DSI soldiers had delivered the suspects ‘ dwellings in Bangkok, according to DSI director-general Pol Maj Yutthana Praedam.

Alongkot Vorakee, Chokchai Kittithanesuan, Jirasak Chookhwamdee, Pibulat Haruehanprakan, Wuttichart Kalyanamitra, and Phisut Rattanawong are the legislators.

In order to accommodate a rise in traffic associated with the start of the new school year, the Department of Rural Roads ( DRR ) yesterday officially opened the Maha Sawat Canal Bridge on Ratchaphruek Road in Nonthaburi.

On June 20, the outgoing side of the bridge will officially available, allowing for full-time operation and significantly reducing area congestion.

Phongkawin Jungrungreangkit, a transportation minister’s advisor, reported yesterday that the DRR’s bridge addresses serious congestion at a significant bottleneck on Ratchaphruek Road.

Up to 120, 000 cars travel through the area during peak hours each day. The fresh bridge is anticipated to increase traffic potential, reduce injuries, and improve travel performance, all of which will improve riders ‘ quality of life in the eastern Bangkok metropolitan region.

The Maha Sawat Canal Bridge links Bangkok’s Taling Chan city with Bang Kruai, Nonthaburi, via the Maha Sawat subdistrict. The project was started in 2022, which was earlier than the original date of June 2025.

The initiative, which is 9.9 kilometers long and costs 1.18 billion rmb, is said to be Montree Dechasakulsom, director-general of the DRR. It has contemporary drains and lighting systems, and is an 8 m-wide, two-lane metal gate with two lanes in each way. The outgoing part measures 1.9 kilometers, while the northbound side measures 2.1 kilometers.

Due to the rapid urbanization and land usage development along the Thonburi part of the Chao Phraya River in northern Nonthaburi, the need for the bridge developed.

The current infrastructure was unable to accommodate the growing number of vehicles, which caused numerous accidents and traffic delays.

Due to space constraints that prevented standard road development, the DRR created the gate to fit within the existing right-of-way.

The new framework aims to improve transport efficiency and make regular commuters travel safer, more quickly.

Following recommendations from international heritage experts, who called for the striking of a balance between development and the preservation of the World Heritage site, the State Railway of Thailand ( SRT ) has revised the design of the Ayutthaya high-speed rail station.

Veeris Ammarapala, SRT governor, revealed that the SRT has received formal written reports from the International Council on Monuments and Sites ( ICOMOS ) and the International Centre for the Study of the Preservation and Restoration of Cultural Property ( ICCROM), both of which serve as advisory bodies to the World Heritage Committee.

Site inspections and reviews of the high-speed rail project’s Heritage Impact Assessment ( HIA ) were among the tasks that they completed while they were in Ayutthaya from January 19 to January 22.

The experts came to the conclusion that it is impossible to reroute the high-speed bridge line to Ayutthaya and that the station’s layout and elevation should be changed to prevent the structures from being seen from within the history zone.

In order to solve direct and combined long-term effects, they also suggested cooperating with the Department of Rail Transport, the Fine Arts Department, tourism government, and other organizations.

Additionally, they suggested a lower creating level, correct size, and appropriate structural elements like walls and ceilings in order to make the place more in harmony with the surrounding landscape.

Additionally, they suggested landscaping measures, such as replacing trees that were removed while building to regain physical harmony, with planting trees in designated public park areas.

Mr. Veeris confirmed that the SRT has previously updated the station’s layout in accordance with these recommendations.

According to Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra, his daughter, Thaksin Shinawatra, past leading Thaksin Shinawatra may be present when the Supreme Court opens an investigation on June 13 over allegations that his jail sentence may not have been properly enforced.

She said yesterday that Thaksin confirmed this during their meeting on Monday. This contrasts with a past report in which Winyat Chartmontri, Thaksin’s attorney, stated that he would not appear at the hearing in person and would instead send his written defense.

The Medical Council of Thailand (MCT) made the decision to impose punitive sanctions against three specialists for his controversial remain at the Police General Hospital ( PGH). The MCT’s walk has given the question whether Thaksin’s prolonged treatment outside of jail was actually sufficient to support his continued poor health.

Ms. Paetongtarn reiterated monday that her parents had a serious illness that required him to receive constant care from his time abroad until his release from Thailand.

After centuries of self-imposed exile abroad, Thaksin was released from Thailand and given an eight-year prison term. Following the royal mercy, the sentence was afterwards reduced to a year.

The Department of Corrections transferred Thaksin to the PGH on August 22, 2023, his first day in prison, citing his grave health conditions, where he remained until he was granted parole in February of last year, a move that raised concerns in the eyes of the public regarding whether he had received particular care.

Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra monday assured the alliance state that it would remain united and dissuade speculation about a House breakup.

She was responding to some reports that a member of the Bhumjaithai Party, a member of the government coalition, may reject the budget expenses for the 2026 fiscal year in the second reading scheduled for May 28 to September 30, which could lead to her dissolution of the House.

When asked if she would break the House, Ms. Paetongtarn looked shocked and said,” Why should I break the House? No “house disintegration”

Members of the internet informed her that reports suggested Bhumjaithai would accept the expenses because it was upset about the ongoing investigation into alleged vote-rigging in the Senate election next year.

Observers claim that lawmakers who are alleged to possess Bhumjaithai connections are now a majority in the Upper House.

According to observers, the so-called “blue” union, which refers to Bhumjaithai, is said to be the largest by way of the three parties in the fresh Upper House, adding that the violet camp is made up of at least 150 lawmakers.

Ms. Paetongtarn asserted that all government coalition parties are responsible for the writing of the funds bill.

She added that she had not spoken with Deputy Prime Minister and Bhumjaithai head Anutin Charnvirakul because he is still recovering from an eye function.

” Government unification is still present,” she continued.

She also refuted information of a conflict between Bhumjaithai’s reported de facto leader Newin Chidchob and Thaksin Shinwatra, her father, who is alleged to be the de facto leader of the ruling Pheu Thai Party.

She noted that she has a duty to maintain state security because the two do never carry any official positions in the government.

How can I letting things get out of hand while I’m still perfect minister?”

Wisut Chainarun, the general government whip and Pheu Thai MP, asserted that all alliance events ‘ support of the budget expenses in the first reading is considered a formal vote.

Following recommendations from international heritage experts, who called for the striking of a balance between development and the preservation of the World Heritage site, the State Railway of Thailand ( SRT ) has revised the design of the Ayutthaya high-speed rail station.

Additionally, they suggested that the Department of Rail Transport, the Fine Arts Department, tourism regulators, and various organizations work together to address combined and direct long-term effects.

Additionally, they suggested making design adjustments to make the place more in tune with the surrounding scenery, including recommending a lower creating height, suitable scale, and appropriate architectural elements like walls and ceilings.

Additionally, they suggested landscaping initiatives, such as replacing trees that were removed while building and farming in designated public park areas, to regain physical harmony.

Mr. Veeris confirmed that the SRT has now updated the station’s layout in accordance with these recommendations.
