On May 14, 2025, an influencer volunteer named Chakrakrit Tangwittaya, known as Pond, appeared at Ban Chang Police Station on May 13 with his lawyer Natthapong Poolkham to acknowledge charges of intimidation and harassment filed by a woman. Pond explained that he had called the complainant to inquire about removing names from his volunteer association's roster—which offers free corpse transportation services nationwide—and that this phone call allegedly frightened her, prompting her complaint. He claimed to have previously filed 2-3 cases against the same woman over insulting social media posts, but said those cases went nowhere, making him feel he was denied justice. Pond expressed suspicion that the complainant has influence, noting that when she filed against him, he was summoned quickly, whereas his complaints against her received no action. He stated the charge against him relates to conduct that harasses, intimidates, or causes distress to others, stemming from his August 17, 2024 phone call when he asked about removing villagers' names from the association roster before pursuing legal action. Police scheduled him for further interrogation, and he indicated he would consult with his lawyer on next steps.

On May 13, rescue units from Sikhiu were called to help capture a large python that had fled into the engine compartment of a vehicle at a home in the Sikhiu Garden area, Sikhiu District, Nakhon Ratchasima Province. Rescuers found a white Chevrolet pickup truck with Sakaew license plate parked at a rental house, with the python hidden inside the engine compartment.

Rescue workers carefully used equipment to capture the snake while onlookers watched anxiously. After about 20 minutes, they successfully removed the python and released it back into nature.

The vehicle owner explained that around 6:25 PM on May 13, he heard something crash into his front door. When he and his girlfriend came out to check, they discovered it was a large python. They tried to chase it away, but the snake instead darted into the engine compartment of their pickup truck, forcing them to call rescuers.

Following the incident, many lottery enthusiasts wasted no time searching for lucky numbers from the vehicle's license plate (1468), the house number (127/23), and the time of the incident (18.25), hoping to use these for the upcoming lottery draw. Some even believed the python entering the vehicle was an auspicious sign.

At 3:00 AM on May 14, 2025, a Facebook content creator known as "Start Channel" with over 20,000 followers posted a video showing large numbers of black-chin tilapia discovered at Pattaya Beach, causing alarm among local fishermen, squid hunters, and tourists who gathered to witness the event.

Start Oon Kayen, 40, the video's creator, revealed that he runs a fishing content channel covering various locations and regularly fishes and squid hunts at Pattaya Beach, attracting tens of thousands of followers. Recently, local fishermen alerted him to a large school of black-chin tilapia in the area, so he attempted to use fish traps to help remove them. The traps successfully caught a significant number of the fish, prompting concerns about the marine ecosystem's health at Pattaya Beach and questions about how these fish could survive in saltwater.

He has urged relevant authorities to urgently investigate and implement preventive measures, warning that if the black-chin tilapia population continues to spread, it could harm local aquatic species including fish and squid larvae, ultimately threatening the marine ecosystem and coastal fishing livelihoods.
