By deceiving people into downloading a fake wealth transfer apps on their phones so that the financial information of foreign workers can get stolen, the Department of Employment has alerted the government to an ongoing rip-off that is taking advantage of the conflict between Israel and Palestinians.

On Thursday and NBP, Sompong Kaewwandee, the chairman of the Chiang Rai Provincial Employment Office, issued a warning to avoid clicking any suspicious links.

He claimed that the company was made aware of the danger by the nearby people. He claimed that swindlers have been sending Thai staff in Israel’s families suspicious links via Line and SMS information.

They are posing as Israeli bank accounts service providers and instructing their victims to get the Monox application and click the link to view Thai workers’ financial statements. He claimed that Google Play is the only place to download the actual Monox game. The con artists assert that the data must be examined using the website they sent.

He advised those who had downloaded the false app to replace the SIM cards or disable the phone’s internet connection. Therefore, in order to clear the financial information, they may perform a manufacturer reset.

Additionally, he advised people to contact the local police or the site” thaipoliceonline.com” for a document. The Royal Thai Police can also be contacted by those with any additional information using its” 1441″ line.

While this is going on, Boonyavee Kwaipan, acting director-general of the Employment Department, announced that it is getting ready to pay Thai returnees from Israel who are Aid Fund for Overseas Workers 15, 000 ringgit in compensation.

Thai returnees must receive compensation from provincial work offices within three weeks.

The ministry has written to Israel’s Population and Immigration Authority requesting that they permit Thai workers to continue employment there once the situation has improved.

For Thai returnees who want to remain working abroad, it has also compiled a list of potential locations, including Taiwan, Portugal, Greece, and South Korea.

According to the cybercrime investigators, at least four more people — three of them in Bangkok — have been conned by the fake phone vendor gang that is being blamed for the suicide of a 19-year-old student earlier this week.

A Mathayom 6( Grade 12 ) student who committed suicide by hanging was detained by the Cyber Crime Investigation Division 5 ( CCID5 ) yesterday, and Dokkaew Kewjerm, 22, was questioned by them on suspicion of being a member of the scam gang.

The scholar wired the gang’s store 20,500 baht to purchase an iPhone, but the phone was not delivered.

She hanged herself on Monday at her house in Nakhon Si Thammarat out of fear that her mother might censure her for being cheated. The payments were discovered by the authorities to be made to Ms. Dokkaew’s lender account.

The CCID5 captain, Pol Maj Gen Charin Kopatta, stated yesterday that Ms. Dokkaew, who was apprehended in Chaiyaphum, claimed she was paid 300 ringgit to start the horse account, but the authorities do not feel her. She also has at least two additional bank accounts, according to inspections.

According to the captain, Ms. Dokkaew’s income trail showed that four additional individuals had deposited funds in her account. The fifth resides in Nakhon Si Thammarat, while the other three reside in the Bangkok neighborhoods of Huai Khwang, Kua Mak, and Bukkalo.

Scams and a usurpation of computer crime rules have been brought against Ms. Dokkaew. Additionally, permits have been issued for the detention of three additional suspects.

Anutin’ Sure’ plan may improve the economy

The Interior Ministry has stated that it will not construct a river that could compromise national security and has expressed assistance for the nation’s Land Bridge venture.

Interior Minister Anutin Charnvirakul claimed the project was started by the previous administration during a presentation yesterday. He added that the current administration does support the project and that it must act immediately.

Two deep-sea ports may be built as part of the job, one on the Andaman beach in Ranong and the other by the Gulf of Thailand along the Chumphon coast.

He continued,” They will be connected by a road and rail link that will have both high-speed and double-track railways.”

We have thoroughly researched the job, and Mr. Anutin stated that it will be advantageous to the nation.

He continued by saying that dredging a river that” splits the state in two” won’t affect national security is unnecessary.

Since the past administration, I have pushed for the job, and I keep my promise that the land bridge will strengthen the nation’s fundamental economic system, according to Mr. Anutin.

He continued,” I am sure the job will also help the Asian region, which will dominate the global market in the next ten years.”

According to Bhumjaithai MP Kongkrit Chatmaleerat for Ranong, the government on Monday acknowledged in theory that the task may charge 228 billion baht.

The land bridge project, which is a component of the Southern Economic Corridor( SEC ) scheme, is supported by all Bhumjaithai MPs as well as the residents of Ranong and Chumphon, he said.

To entice foreign investment, the Transport Ministry does host a fair abroad from November to January, he said.

Additionally, the government intends to draft a Southern Economic Corridor legislation the following year. By December of next year, he said, plan committees and an SEC coverage office would be established.

The private sector’s joint venture bidding will start around April and June 2025, and the property eviction plan will be released by January 2026. Around July or August 2025, a contract may become submitted to the government.

The property bridge’s structure is anticipated to start in September 2025 and be completed by September 2030 before being fully launched in October.

Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin invited owners from China and other nations to participate in the job on the final day of his visit to China monday.

Srettha also informs the Chinese equivalent about the new Mekong gate and landbridge.

During extensive discussions with Taiwanese Prime Minister Li Qiang in Beijing, Srettha Thavisin suggests making visa-free admittance for Chinese visitors permanent.

The advantages of a proposed landbridge in southwestern Thailand for the Belt and Road Initiative, supported by China, were also discussed by Mr. Srettha and his rival.

The discussions on Wednesday also covered a proposed fresh gate to Laos across the Mekong River to promote business between Thailand and China as well as easing restrictions on Thai cattle exports to China.

Mr. Srettha stated on Thursday,” I felt a very good relationship with the Chinese prime minister tuesday.” He provided me with his mobile number so I could make clear calls. This is encouraging. Both nations are reliant on one another. China, which is a great brother, may be our reliance.

The remarks were made by the excellent minister as he concluded his trip to Beijing for the next Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation.

As part of a larger economic revival strategy, the government has temporarily waived visas for Foreign and Azerbaijani immigrants who stay for 30 days. The program will end on February 29 after beginning on September 25.

Foreign tourists initially responded favorably, but the shootings on October 3 at Siam Paragon, in which a Taiwanese visitor was one of three people killed, raised security concerns that regulators have pledged to handle.

Before the Covid – 19 pandemic, China was the nation’s main source of foreign guests, bringing on nearly 11 million people in 2019. About 5 million Chinese are anticipated to travel to the nation this year, according to hospitality officials.

Thailand will continue to support the Belt and Road Initiative, Mr. Srettha added, assuring his Chinese equivalent. For instance, a new gate that would be built across the Mekong from Nong Khai to Laos may make it easier to export goods from Thailand to China.

He even brought up the landbridge initiative, which would connect Chumphon and Ranong, two southern provinces, with the Gulf of Thailand and the Andaman Sea. According to Mr. Srettha, this would also increase the potential of the Belt and Road to strengthen relationships with foreign countries as China anticipated.

According to him, the 90-kilometer-long landbridge may reduce the time it takes to move goods from the Strait of Malacca to the South China Sea and the Andaman Sea by six to nine weeks.

He continued,” The landbridge job and the construction of Chinese businesses in Thailand would transform Thailand into a global hub for transportation.”

Mr. Srettha added that he also suggested conducting checks in Thailand prior to cow import to China in order to increase the efficiency of the trade of cows. China currently mandates that Laos undergo investigations, such as wellness exams and treatments.

Calves can be exported to China with ease if the process is carried out in Thailand, he said.
