PATHUM THANI: Chan Puangpetch, who received support from the ruling Pheu Thai Party, was elected president of the Pathum Thani provincial administrative organisation ( PAO ) on Sunday.
He received 203, 032 vote while Pol Lt Gen Kamronwit Toopkrajang had 201, 212 vote, election officials of Pathum Thani announced on Monday night. Mr Chan so just won the desk again, by 1, 820 , seats, from Pol Lt Gen Kamronwit after his defeat in 2020.
Mr. Chan expressed his satisfaction that Pathum Thani people supported him at his home in Sam Khok area on Sunday nights. He added that he must bless Thaksin Shinawatra and the Pheu Thai Party for their unwavering help.
The two primary candidates for the municipal operational election were Pol Lt Gen Kamronwit and Mr. Chan.
Prior to 2020, Mr. Chan held the office of Pathum Thani PAO leader three times before being defeated by Pol Lt Gen Kamronwit, a past Bangkok police commissioner who had at the time received aid from Pheu Thai.
Prior to the PAO vote, political observers noted that Thaksin and Pheu Thai numbers had campaigned in Pathum Thani and also for Pheu Thai. The descendant of Thaksin’s Thai Rak Thai party lost most House seats in the province to the Move Forward Party ( MFP ) in the May 14, 2023 general election.
A Pheu Thai-led coalition government led by MFP, which had been defeated in the poll but prevented the MFP from assuming leadership.  ,
But, polls indicate that more people now back the MFP and its essential candidate for prime minister than they did before. However, the , acceptance of Pheu Thai , and its primary governmental candidates is way , down.

Rajavarothiam Sampanthan, one of Sri Lanka’s most important officials and a former advocate for the country’s Tamil majority, has died at the age of 91.
Sampanthan, a attorney and one of the region’s longest serving MPs, died in the investment Colombo later on Sunday.
The Tamil National Alliance ( TNA ), the main political party representing Tamils in Sri Lanka’s north and east, has been under his leadership for the past 23 years.
He has continued to require equal rights for his frequently underrepresented racial party since the Tamil Tiger secessionists were defeated in 2009.
TNA chief MA Sumanthiran confirmed his death on X, a platform that was formerly Online.
In 2015, Sampanthan was appointed leader of the opposition, making him the first member of the ethnic minority group to hold the parliamentary post in 32 years.
In 2022, Mr Sampanthan sent a letter to the UN’s Human Rights Council, calling on the international body to reject what he alleged were the Sri Lanka administration’s “failure to investigate complaints of transgressions” towards the Tamil majority.
Since his passing, Sri Lanka’s social divide has become increasingly entrenched.
Erstwhile president Mahinda Rajapaksa, who oversaw the terrible end of Sri Lanka’s civil war in 2009, was one of those who paid tribute to him.
Second, Biden, then Macron, and then the terrible Rishi Sunak, who arrived the following week. Japan’s Kishida, Germany’s Scholz and Canada’s Trudeau remain in office only because the election cycle does n’t require them to assay the voters.
Every big American nation’s federal is falling or had collapse if it had to hold elections, for the first time since contemporary European states were defined by the Treaty of Westphalia. What social plague has beenfalling the West’s leaders, leading to a widening turnout for all of their voters?
There is a straightforward justification for the social damage of the West’s governments: All of them consented to an agenda that their voters rejected because it had harmed the quality of their lives. Naturally and instantly, the citizens of the West are rising up to reject their leaders.
The harm to the country’s social class is amazing.
In the first round of the snap poll that Macron called following the tragic European Parliament poll of June 9, the second results from France show that Emmanuel Macron’s center-based balloon party drew only a five of the vote. Le Pen’s National Rally, tendentiously labeled the “extreme right” by the media echo chamber, came in at 34 % while the leftist coalition garnered 28 %.
72 % of Americans, meanwhile, think that Joseph Biden is n’t mentally fit to be president ( the other 28 % presumably includes a large number of dementia victims ). 56 % of Americans disapprove of his achievement.
In the European Parliament elections on June 9th, the three events that make up the German governing coalition collectively received only 30 % of the voting. The country’s second- largest party, the Alternative für Deutschland ( AfD ), has 16 % of the vote, enough to force itself into a coalition that the formerly mainstream parties have sworn never to consider.
Fumio Kishida, the prime minister of Japan, has a 13 % approval rating and won only twelfth of the vote in his own party. With a 28 % approval rating, Canada’s Justin Trudeau appears to be the leper with the most fingers.
What is the objective that the West’s voters have rejected? After the fall of Socialism in 1990, America’s aristocracy had the resources to frog-marge the rest of the industrialized world into its strategy.
The first is a worldwide partnership expanding NATO to the border between Russia and Ukraine in order to remove and weaken Russia. That is exactly what led to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, as Donald Trump declared on June 21.
In March 2022, Biden promised that sanctions may reduce the Soviet economy in half, rather, Russia’s economy has grown and is now larger than Japan’s, according to the World Bank, and Moscow has the upper hand in a grinding war of attrition. The rise in support for other German parties on June 9 was essentially a peace vote because the war is incredibly unpopular in Europe.
The next was a global partnership that prioritized business output over the climate change agenda. In the US, the Biden presidency hobbled the removal of oils. US petroleum exports doubled under the Trump administration, but now they have only little recovered to their previous high after a sharp decline.
After the Merkel state acceded to the Green Party plan and shut down the nation’s nuclear power plants, the Ukraine war in Germany prevented Germany from getting cheap Russian energy. Electricity prices played a significant role in the recent three-year prices cycle.
The fourth deal addressed the declining population of industrialized countries. In the case of Europe, all the leaders of the big European nations agreed that they would take large numbers of immigrants from developing nations to their west, Middle Eastern Muslims and sub-Saharan Africans, and Central Americans in the case of the United States.
This is not quite the” Great Replacement Theory” of conspiracy theory idea. Even so, it comes near: The elite had envisioned a new international melting pot of ethnic admixture that would diluted and devalue the West’s cultures.
Immigration is by far the most significant of these three because it implies the reconfiguration of social and economic life in the industrialized world and the deterioration of the country’s base.
The nationalist uprising against this worldwide agreement, led by Viktor Orban in Hungary and Donald Trump in the US, was unavoidable. The leaders will also use their swords against themselves for this problem.
In order to support the left-wing National Front, Macron’s leading Gabriel Attal ordered individuals in his party’s third-place candidates to retreat from the second round of voting on July 7 in the midst of yesterday’s election disaster, favoring the republican right over the extraordinary left.
According to Le Monde, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, the leader of the radical left party La France Insoumise ( LFI), called on left-wing candidates who placed third but still qualified for the second round to withdraw to support the better-placed candidate to defeat the RN. No one vote, no one chair more for the RN,’ he said”.
The socialists, after all, are globalists of a unique line, with some serious objections to financial control by aristocracy but extremely angry to national independence. The most important issue is the breaking of national boundaries, national cultures, and national populations in the great wave of migration that they have done a lot to encourage, and globalists of Macron’s ( or Angela Merkel’s, or Rishi Sunak’s ) stripe agree with the socialists.
France is now 8 % to 10 % Muslim, according to the Pew Survey, it will be 18 % Muslim by 2050 in a high migration scenario while Germany will have a 20 % Muslim population. Migrants are the main political parties ‘ constituents, which aligns the socialist returned with the bourgeois center.
The centre- kept empire of anguish cannot govern France, to be sure. A split-off from the traditional Left (” Die Linke” ) led by Sahra Wagenknecht is currently polling with 9 % of the federal vote, which is unfavorable. The Wagenknecht group, which has won some votes from the AfD, now accounts for 17 % of the total, combines traditional socialist politics with a strong anti-immigration stance.
It’s not yet clear whether the National Rally’s despair alliance with the former investment banker Macron may prevent the National Rally from winning the July 7 square or not.
Maybe France will just go into conflict rather than sputter away around a nationalist government. Germany will have a protracted wait before its future national vote, which will take place at the end of 2025, with the AfD leading by large profits in the state elections scheduled for September 1.
British politics, however, is in conflict after Biden’s breathtaking display of memory in his conversation with Trump on June 27. Democrats cannot survive without Biden as a member, which makes Trump’s election very likely, just as they cannot live without him.
And Trump has no use for the international mission that the British aristocracy imposed on the earth after 1990. The information coming from Washington is: You’re on your own and it’s every person for himself.

Move Forward Party (MFP) chief adviserPita Limjaroenrathas accused the Election Commission (EC) of double standards for its petition to the Constitutional Court seeking to disband the party.
Mr. Pita highlighted the EC’s method of filing complaints against the MFP as being unlawful in an update on the MFP’s battle to prevent the same fate as its president, the Future Forward Party, suffered in 2020.
He claimed that the EC has a triple standard because it relied solely on Section 92 of the natural law for political events, which allows the EC to obtain the MFP’s abandon without conducting an investigation.
According to Mr. Pita, it is obvious that Section 93 of the law cannot be used without a network to Section 92. A double regular may happen, he said, if both sections are exercised differently in a group breakdown case.
The EC if petition the court to dissolve any group when trustworthy evidence is that any party has carried out acts that undermine the democratic king.
Section 93, however, says the group registration, when discovering like acts, may gather facts and evidence and provide it to the EC for thought, which did follow the rules and methods specified by the commission.
He added the EC was exercise merely Section 92 in a party dissolution case it wished to expand, but if it wants to slow down the process, it was exercising both sections continuously.
But, Mr. Pita said that the party would be on an “expressway” to breakdown if both sections were used individually in the MFP disintegration case.
Is it possible for the EC to use its judgment in this manner without the involvement of anyone else?
He also emphasized the necessity for a group facing breakdown to file a complaint with the EC.
This is also highlighted by the EC itself’s November, 2012, document, which states that a party may be allowed to recognize and defend the case with the EC before it is submitted to the jury.
The EC has previously responded to the MFP’s problems, denying the group is being treated unfairly.
The MFP was given a seven-day deadline on June 19 to organize data for a hearing on Wednesday.
The reason we love spicy foods is that the discomfort produced can , stimulate the release of serotonin, according to Dr Shim. Some persons may just like the taste sensation of heat and pepper. ” Capsaicin may also make a momentary sensation of heat in the body, which some folks find comforting”, he said.
There are also negative consequences to take into account. Capsaicin may induce the rest of the digestive system and cause symptoms like heartburn, chest pain, and abdominal pain when consumed in large amounts. Additionally, it may cause abnormal gut motility, which causes diarrhoea and reflux,” says Dr. Appearance.
He added that those with” a history of gastrointestinal problems like acid reflux, ulcers, and irritable bowel syndrome are likely to be more vulnerable to tiny amounts of capsaicin” are more likely to be.
WHAT IS THE MINIMUM AMOUNT OF CAPACIN REQUIRED TO START CAUSING STOMACH ISSUES OR EVEN BE FATAL?
About 0.5mg to 1mg is all it takes to blow off capsaicin’s gentle, unpleasant consequences, said Dr Look, citing animal research. Serious negative effects ( e .g.,. cold sweats, changes in blood pressure or dizziness ) start to appear when more than 170mg is ingested” or the “equivalent of eating 1kg of jalapeno peppers”, he said. These symptoms would be very annoying, but they will probably go away in about a day or so.
He added:” In contrast, the lethal injection for allicin is estimated to be far higher at around 35, 000mg of capsicum for an adult. You would typically have to force yourself to consume a lot of pepper that is far beyond what is normally acceptable. When people take themselves to a spice-eating issue, this occasionally occurs.

The Bhumjaithai Party ( BJT) is urging its critics to stop discriminating against senators-elect based on their backgrounds, claiming that the process was designed to ensure candidates from ordinary backgrounds have the same chance as privileged candidates of winning the upper house.
” Some legislators- elect come from regular backgrounds. They do not relate to rich clans or well-known people. Some are hardly college graduates. Right now, they are being bullied by some detractors who show little but contempt for their dignity”, said Somsak Prissananantakul, a Npn member and former MP in a Facebook post on Sunday.
He cited one senator-elect from Ang Thong state as an example of bullying that he claimed was committed to her educational background.
” She just finished Mathayom 6]Year 12] and she makes her living as a dressmaker, so they questioned why she was elected as a senator”, Mr Somsak said.
Another senator- vote in Ang Thong, who served as a community chief and wellness volunteer, is also being bullied over her background, despite her capabilities and sensible experience, he said.
The group is now contesting allegations that it interfered with the Senate election process in light of Mr. Somsak’s notes. The claims came after it was claimed that a sizable amount of electorate appeared to be affiliated with the group, which calls the Northeast its democratic stronghold.
Responding to the state, Karom Polpornklang, a deputy state official and part of the BJT, said critics may get evidence to back up their charges.
” Every participant had to adopt the Election Commission’s rules. We may value the results of the Senate poll”, he said.

Based on previous encounters with the Chinese, Manila had diligently abstained from the prayer of the agreement. Even though the term “armed attack” in the agreement was not specifically defined, the Taiwanese acts would have amounted to non-kinetic means of the use of illegal force in American military-legal terms.
This day, Manila continued to try to calm the issue, most glaringly due to the severity of the Jun 17 event, which could have put the nations, and perhaps even the Americans, on the verge of total armed conflict.
In a statement to soldiers of the product overseeing the South China Sea on June 23, Mr. Marcos stated that the Philippines is” not in the firm to provoke wars.”
All these could be song to China’s lips. Beijing has been able to further examine the American-Filipi “red range”
The Jun 17 incident highlighted two crucial data points: Manila’s resistance to intensify tensions and Washington’s visible ambivalence about offering Philippines more robust support even without using the Mutual Defense Treaty.
China also showed how it would go to stop the Filipinos ‘ movements and its growing supremacy. A few weeks after the conflict, the largest Chinese coast guard vehicle, which displaced more than 10,000 kilograms, was deployed close to the Sierra Madre island.
