On July 6, 2025, Facebook user "Keng Indigo" posted disturbing footage after finding their rental room turned into a pile of garbage. The landlord expressed fury at the couple's disgusting behavior, with waste accumulating to waist height, used sanitary pads left inside, and food scraps scattered around. The landlord questioned how the tenants could live in such conditions, noting they had been accommodating by allowing rent payments in installments despite the couple never paying utilities on time.

The landlord shared photos of the trashed room before the tenants disappeared, leaving mountains of garbage that overflowed the space, making hallways nearly impassable and the sleeping area impossible to identify. Multiple commenters engaged with the post as the landlord elaborated that the couple had kept the air conditioning running all day while lying in bed, never disposed of sanitary pads, and had left the door barely openable due to garbage blocking it. The landlord expressed regret at having helped the tenants, stating they had done the right thing by the wrong people.

A ten-wheeled dump truck experienced a terrifying incident on Bangna-Trat Road when its hydraulic bed suddenly raised while traveling, causing it to collide violently with a U-turn bridge support. The truck's cab then flipped and crashed to the road, creating clouds of dust. A father and his 6-year-old daughter were injured in the impact.

The accident occurred at 3:55 p.m. on July 6, 2025, at kilometer 17 of Bangna-Trat Road in Bang Phleng district, Samut Prakan province. The dump truck's hydraulic bed lifted unexpectedly while the vehicle was moving, striking the bridge barrier and causing the cab to flip over onto the pavement. Security cameras from the local administrative organization captured the moment of impact.

Volunteers from Ruam Katanyu Foundation foundation rushed to help. The 44-year-old driver Suwat and his 6-year-old daughter suffered injuries from the crash and were taken to the hospital. The driver confirmed he had lowered the dump bed at a nearby worksite just before the accident but could not explain how it suddenly raised. He only realized what had happened when the truck hit the bridge and became airborne.

Following the incident, authorities closed the right lane and portions of the entire roadway to allow a crane to lift the damaged truck and clear traffic. Pichakorn Srichanthong, director of the Samut Prakan Highway Division, arrived to oversee operations and coordinated with engineers to inspect the bridge structure at the accident site.

Initial visual assessment indicated the bridge remained structurally sound and safe for use, though expert inspection was ordered for confirmation. The transport company and its insurance provider will handle all damages. The company will also arrange for specialists to investigate the cause of the hydraulic bed failure, determining whether it resulted from a hydraulic system malfunction or driver error.

Rumors are circulating about a backup prime minister being prepared to take office, with the initial "S" mentioned. Realistically, if a change occurred through normal procedures, anyone becoming PM would need to be on the pre-election candidate list designated by their political party. The only "S" in the system is Sirikanya Tansakul of the Pheu Thai Party, which seems unlikely since the political power base is locked tight and cannot be from the orange-shirt party. These rumors therefore aim to stoke talk of an unconventional change, reaching to an economist and former Bank of Thailand governor, also with the initial "S." That also seems difficult and would require extraordinary methods. What's interesting is that the rumor likely connects to the Constitutional Court's scheduled ruling on July 9th on whether a 400-billion-baht emergency decree authorizing the Finance Ministry to borrow funds to address impacts from the energy crisis and facilitate energy transition violates the constitution. The petition for a court ruling came from 133 MPs, who argue that emergency decrees can only be issued when there is urgent, unavoidable necessity to protect national security, safety, economic stability, or prevent public disaster. Which way will the Constitutional Court rule, leading to intense speculation? This is why backup PM talk with the initial "S" has surfaced, aiming to shake Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul's chair, who has been facing multiple challenges lately. However, government insiders remain confident that the Bhumjaithai backing remains strong. The Bhumjaithai faction confirms that the blue party's PM candidates are only "Anutin" and "Sirisak Poungkaetkao," citing the constitution which stipulates the PM must come only from each party's candidate list. No one else is possible. They're confident "Anutin" remains secure, or the backup is only "Sirisak." Meanwhile, the actual "S" in the PM candidate system—Sirikanya of the orange party—came out to clarify the situation, reiterating that any PM change must follow the constitution. According to the current PM candidate list, there is only Sirikanya as "S." She guarantees it's impossible because there's no party-switching scenario. Everyone must wait to see July 9th and how the emergency loan decree case plays out—whether it affects the PM's chair or not. However, rumors also reflect that at this moment the PM's chair is surrounded by strong winds from multiple directions, so one cannot be careless and must make every case involving accusations or allegations against the blue party crystal clear.

On July 6, Bangkok's Criminal Court on Ratchadamri Road denied bail for two suspects, Uthai (47) and Nanthawat (47), who face charges of unlawfully distributing heroin-type narcotics. After the Narcotics Suppression Bureau (NSB) presented their case and the court approved initial detention, both defendants filed for temporary release. However, the court analyzed the gravity of the charges and case circumstances, concluding that the men are accused of participating in an international drug trafficking operation. The court determined there is sufficient reason to believe they would flee if released and noted the prosecution opposed bail. The bail request was denied and the defendants will remain in custody.

A 61-year-old ride-hailing driver has sought justice after alleging he was severely beaten by five Myanmar passengers in a dispute over a 50-baht expressway toll, leaving him blind in one eye and unable to work.

The driver, identified only as Supachai, filed a complaint through the Sai Mai Tong Rod assistance centre in Bangkok, saying the case has made little progress nearly three months after the incident because police have yet to locate the suspects.

According to Supachai, the incident occurred on 12 April after he accepted a booking to pick up five Myanmar nationals – three men and two women – from Bangkok's Mo Chit Bus Terminal and drive them to a hotel in Bang Phli district, Samut Prakan.

During the journey, he asked the passengers whether they wished to use the expressway to avoid heavy traffic. He said they initially appeared reluctant but eventually agreed, prompting him to pay the 50-baht toll in advance.

When they arrived at the hotel, the ride-hailing app showed a fare of 720 baht. Supachai said he requested a total of 770 baht, including the toll, but the passengers refused to pay the additional 50 baht, accusing him of overcharging.

He alleged that a male passenger sitting in the front seat, who could speak Thai, attempted to photograph him. After he objected, an argument broke out and he was repeatedly punched in the face before losing consciousness. He said all five passengers fled without paying the fare.

Supachai said he later regained consciousness at Bang Phli Hospital, where doctors diagnosed a fractured right eye socket, head trauma and bleeding in the brain. Further examinations found severe damage to his right eye, which permanently lost vision. He said he continues to suffer headaches and dizziness and is no longer able to work as a driver. He has since been registered as a person with a disability.

He reported the incident to Bang Kaew Police Station after being discharged from hospital. However, he claimed investigators only obtained the suspects' names and passport numbers, without collecting their addresses, workplaces or contact details, making it difficult to track them down. He said inquiries with immigration authorities and recruitment agencies have so far failed to locate the suspects.

Ekkapop Luangprasert, founder of the Sai Mai Tong Rod page, said he would contact the superintendent of Bang Kaew Police Station to follow up on the investigation. He said the case should not be difficult to investigate, noting that CCTV cameras at the hotel where the assault allegedly occurred could help identify the suspects. He urged police to expedite the case and bring those responsible to justice.
