Prime Minister Anutthin Charnvirakul led a Thai delegation to Paris to discuss and demonstrate Thailand's political stability and commitment to economic reform with MEDEF International in France.

The delegation included Deputy Prime Ministers Ekniti Nitithanpraphat (Finance Ministry), Sihasak Phuangketkaew (Foreign Affairs), and Supachee Suthammapun (Commerce), alongside Deputy Prime Minister Yotchannan Wongsawadi (Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation) and Culture Minister Sabida Thaisat. They met with MEDEF International, led by Vice Chairman Francois Corbin and Chairman of the France-Thailand Business Council, in Paris, France.

The Prime Minister reiterated Thailand's political stability and commitment to economic reform, highlighted by Moody's recent upgrade of Thailand's outlook to "Stable"—a signal of investor confidence in Thailand's long-term investment potential. He thanked the French business community for their trust and continued partnership in Thailand's growth.

The PM noted that Thailand is gaining momentum from foreign direct investment through the "Thailand Fast Pass" policy, aimed at making investment in Thailand "fast, smart, predictable, and reliable." He also emphasized that Thailand serves as a gateway to ASEAN's market of over 700 million people.

Deputy PM Ekniti stated that both countries can elevate cooperation further, describing this as a critical moment to build long-term partnerships as Thailand prepares for major future investments amid stable macroeconomic fundamentals, including high international reserves, low foreign debt, and manageable public debt-to-GDP ratios.

He emphasized that Thailand can be a strategic partner for France in Asia to build new supply chains focused not just on cost but on infrastructure, economic resilience, skilled labor, and university collaboration to develop talent for future industries. Thailand is ready to advance cooperation with France under the "5Ts" framework—Targeted Industries, Transition, Transform, Transparent, and Together—to create sustainable long-term partnerships with French businesses.

Thanawatch Nitikanchana, president of Ratchaburi FC, posted a farewell message to veteran player Chakraphan Kaewphrom, honoring him as one of the club's greatest legends. The 38-year-old footballer is departing from Ratchaburi FC after the recent season, concluding a four-year partnership with the club. In his post, the club president lauded Chakraphan as a trusted figure and one of the team's most legendary players. The message read: "Four years ago, when this club was weakening, we needed someone to bring us hope. Then came a legend from another big club, who walked in and told us 'we can do this.' Four years have passed, and now he is walking out as one of the greatest legends of this team. Every moment we shared together—joy and sorrow, celebration and embrace, defeat, stress, and heartbreak—we always found solutions together. We spent hours on phone calls to elevate our team to the next level. Most importantly, we fought side by side. I will definitely miss fighting shoulder to shoulder with you, captain. If I am a commander-in-chief, Nott is my sword—the person we trusted, the one we were confident would lead our army to victory and bring everyone safely home. But everything has its time. Thank you Nott for these beautiful four years. You will always have a home here, and we will miss you, Captain Nott."

Frequent bloating and persistent abdominal discomfort are warning signs of ovarian cancer that many women overlook, thinking symptoms will resolve on their own until the disease has already spread. Dr. Jed Boonywongviroj, Deputy Director of Primary Care at Nakhon Ratchasima Hospital, posted on Facebook under the handle "Dr. Jed" to educate the public about ovarian cancer, highlighting that frequent bloating and persistent abdominal pain are ovarian cancer symptoms women commonly miss. Many women experiencing unusual symptoms assume they will pass on their own—attributing mild bloating, abdominal pain, or slight menstrual irregularities to stress, hormones, or fatigue. The alarming aspect of ovarian cancer is that it often shows no clear symptoms in early stages, and the symptoms that do appear resemble ordinary daily complaints, causing many women to delay treatment until the disease has already advanced.

1. Frequent bloating and abdominal distension, even without eating much: This symptom is commonly overlooked because women assume it's just intestinal gas or indigestion. However, if bloating occurs frequently, with easy abdominal distension, abnormal early fullness, and persists for several weeks, this should not be ignored. Masses or abnormalities in the ovaries may begin pressing on or disrupting the abdominal cavity.

2. Mild abdominal or unusual back pain: Many assume this indicates an approaching period or pain from prolonged sitting, but persistent dull pain in the lower abdomen, chronic lower abdominal pain, or unexplained back pain—especially occurring almost daily—warrants medical evaluation. Symptoms may come and go, causing many people to become accustomed to them.

3. Increased urination without increased fluid intake: If a mass or abnormality exists in the pelvic region, it may press on the bladder, causing frequent painful urination, incomplete bladder emptying, or more frequent bathroom visits without a urinary tract infection. Some women may experience increased nighttime urination, which never occurred before.

4. Early satiety and reduced food intake: Some dismiss this as beneficial for weight loss, but if you feel full after eating only a small amount and gradually eat less than usual in an abnormal way, this may signal something in the abdominal cavity is disrupting your digestive system. Combined with bloating, this persistent symptom should not be ignored for months.

5. Irregular menstruation or unusual bleeding: This doesn't mean every ovarian cancer patient experiences bleeding, but if your period becomes irregular, with sporadic bleeding, bleeding after the period ends, or significant changes in your menstrual cycle without prior occurrence, you should get checked. This is especially important for women over 40 or those experiencing noticeably irregular periods.

6. Unexplained weight loss and easy fatigue: Some people lose weight without reducing food intake or exercising, feel easily tired, weak, and lack energy. This signals your body may be experiencing inflammation or some abnormality. Don't dismiss weight loss as simply beneficial; your body may be expending energy abnormally due to hidden disease.

7. Early-stage ovarian cancer is often quieter than expected: This is what's frightening—it doesn't present a palpable mass like some diseases, and early symptoms resemble gastric, intestinal, or common hormonal issues. Many people receive wrong treatment for months or years before proper diagnosis, by which time the cancer has already progressed. This is especially true for those who dismiss minor symptoms as insignificant.

8. High-risk individuals should be especially vigilant: Particularly those with a family history of ovarian cancer, breast cancer, no children, obesity, or advanced age. This doesn't mean you'll definitely develop the disease, but you should be extra cautious, pay closer attention to your body, and not ignore persistent symptoms, including those with relevant risk factors.

Shinnosuke Abe has resigned as manager of the Yomiuri Giants, a prestigious team in Japan's professional baseball league, following his arrest on charges of physically assaulting his 18-year-old daughter at home. The 47-year-old former baseball legend, who played for 19 years and won eight league championships before becoming manager, was arrested at his residence in Shibuya on May 25 and confessed to the allegations. According to Tokyo Metropolitan Police, his daughter sustained no injuries from the incident.

Abe told police that he pushed his 18-year-old daughter down after they quarreled, stating that he was intoxicated at the time. The incident began when Abe told his daughter to be quiet, but she talked back to him, which angered him greatly.

A child consultation hotline received an emergency call after 7 p.m. reporting that the daughter had been assaulted by her father. According to sources, the daughter made the report after consulting ChatGPT, and Tokyo police had no prior reports or inquiries about Abe.

Following his arrest, Abe told police officers that he became angry when his eldest daughter talked back after he told her to be quiet. Police also noted that he showed remorse for his actions.

Tou Kunimmatsu, the team's chairman and CEO, released a statement saying: "We cannot tolerate violence, so we take this matter very seriously. We apologize to all fans and everyone involved in professional baseball."

However, the daughter confirmed in a letter to the media that she had not been punched or kicked and that she has since reconciled with her father. She also stated that she does not want this matter to be made into a big issue.

F1 legend Mika Salo has been found following an attack by a motorcycle-riding assailant who slashed his leg while he was crossing a zebra crossing near a prominent hotel in central Bangkok. Police have launched an investigation into the incident.

At 12:20 PM on May 26, 2025, Metropolitan Police Commissioner Siam Bunyasorn ordered Deputy Commissioner Pallab Aem-la to oversee the investigation, working with other senior officers to locate Salo. They found the 59-year-old Finnish former F1 driver staying at a hotel in the Sukhumvit area. During initial questioning, Salo stated he was unaware of what had struck him in the Sukhumvit area. Police subsequently brought him to Lumpini Police Station for further questioning.

The case has attracted significant media coverage from Finnish news outlets such as Ilta-Sanomat and Helsingin Sanomat, which reported the incident occurred while Salo was crossing a zebra crossing near a Bangkok hotel.

Salo described feeling only a "light impact" from the motorcycle passing very close to him and continued walking for a few more steps before a bystander shouted that blood was pouring from his leg. Looking down, he saw his shoe was soaked with blood.
