TRUE Corporation has partnered with Bangkok University's Faculty of Communication Arts to launch "BU be TRUE: The Future Takes Off Together," a groundbreaking collaboration designed to create a next-generation learning model connecting higher education with the private sector. The program aims to cultivate future leaders capable of driving change, equipped with upskilled creative-AI competencies who understand people, business, and can deploy technology responsibly and creatively to create sustainable value in the AI-era workplace.

The BU be TRUE initiative follows a Learn–Work–Create–Innovate framework with five core processes: Human Decode, which extracts human-centered insights; Skill Fusion, combining storytelling, AI literacy, digital tools, business thinking, and communication ethics; Real Challenge Lab, tackling actual industry problems; Test, Mentor & Improve, offering experimentation and guidance; and Launch to Career, opening pathways to employment. The program engages the business sector in developing a future workforce with skills aligned to tomorrow's job market while promoting responsible AI and creative thinking to nurture graduates who understand people, technology, and business while generating real social and economic value.

Prof. Sorsern Milindasoot, Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs at Bangkok University, stated that while university education alone may be insufficient for real-world industry changes, the BU be TRUE collaboration represents a critical bridge between academia and business, enabling students to tackle genuine projects, learn from real challenges, and develop their potential while creating economic and social value for the nation.

Oliver Kittipong Veeratecha, Head of Brand and Communications of TRUE Corporation, expressed confidence in Gen Z's potential to become change-making leaders. As Thailand's telecom and technology leader, TRUE aims to evolve from a Connectivity Provider to an Enabler of Possibilities, providing young people with genuine opportunities where technology creates real value for people and society.

In Trang, people from across Southern Thailand are flocking to queue for free treatment for nerve and bone conditions from Khru Mo Phong (Samphong Senaniad), a 57-year-old healer from Nanin village in Yan Ta Khao district. Patients travel from Trang, Krabi, Satun, Suratthani, Phatthalung, Phuket, Yala, Pattani, Nakhon Si Thammarat, Songkhla, Phang Nga, and Chumphon seeking relief for strained tendons, rigid joints, shoulder pain, stroke, and paralysis.

Khru Mo Phong treats approximately 100 patients daily using only coconut oil massage combined with ancient chanting and salt rituals passed down for over 100 years. He performs treatments for free, providing accommodation and meals to patients traveling from distant provinces. The practice resembles the veneration of Khru Mo Manohra (a spiritual healing tradition), earning him the nickname "Khru Mo En" (nerve master).

According to Samphong, he inherited the healing knowledge from his ancestors and believes that charging fees would bring misfortune, as the practice is rooted in Buddhist merit-making principles. The treatment uses only coconut oil and salt—no other medications. Despite no formal appointments, word-of-mouth recommendations and his TikTok following (hundreds of thousands) have made him increasingly popular. Health officials from the local health center oversee his practice. Samphong began serious practice approximately 18 months ago after recovering from a mysterious illness he was told could only be healed if he inherited and practiced this ancestral healing tradition.

The Royal Thai Police spokesperson awarded the "Spokesman's Thumbs Up" commendation to officers at Phra Tueam Chulalong Police Station for their life-saving operation on June 30, 2025. Deputy National Police Spokesman Trairong Phiwphan announced that he visited Phra Tueam Chulalong Police Station in Pathum Thani province to boost morale and communicate the directives of Police Commissioner Kittiratt Panpetch and Deputy Commissioner Ithiphol Ajchariyapradit to all personnel at the station.

The commendation was presented to Sub-Lieutenant Punthat Treekorn of the Prevention and Suppression Division for his exceptional handling of a critical situation involving a man who had climbed onto the edge of a pedestrian bridge in an apparent suicide attempt. Punthat methodically closed off the bridge and positioned officers on both sides. While one team engaged the man's attention from below, Punthat carefully crawled toward him undetected. When the moment was right, he swiftly moved in and safely pulled the man down.

The police spokesman praised Punthat and all officers at Phra Tueam Chulalong Police Station for their exemplary performance, demonstrating the courage, quick thinking, and true spirit of protectors of public peace that define professional policing.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic, the legendary former striker now working as a Fox Sports commentator, has singled out Netherlands coach Ronald Koeman as solely responsible for the team's 2026 World Cup elimination after losing to Morocco on penalties in the round of 32.

Zlatan said, "This defeat is entirely Koeman's fault. I couldn't recognize this Netherlands team at all. The playing style is no longer the identity of the Netherlands, and that deeply disappointed me."

"I was always taught that it's attack, attack, and attack—that's the Dutch identity. Today Koeman looks like an Italian coach focused only on not losing. But normally, Netherlands plays to win. Even if they lose, they should play with their own distinctive style."

"This isn't the Netherlands I know. Looking at how they played, you could see the players themselves felt uncomfortable. Ball possession is gone. The attacking game is gone. The overall performance looked poor. And all of that is entirely Koeman's responsibility."

On June 30, 2025, at Khao Mai Daeng Temple in Si Racha District, Chachoengsao Province, crowds of devotees continuously paid respects to the "Kumarn Khong" golden child statue to seek blessings and lottery luck for the July 1 draw.

The "Kumarn Khong" is a renowned golden statue at Khao Mai Daeng Temple, created in 2020 by Abbot Luang Pho Sanga. Sculpted by artist Sang Mongkhon and standing 16 inches wide, the statue is believed by locals to possess sacred power, bringing good fortune and fulfilling wishes. Devotees traditionally offer snacks, toys, and beer in gratitude when their wishes come true.

Today, a 40-year-old devotee named Somchai brought snacks, beer, and various toys to pay respects and seek lottery numbers from the statue. After lighting incense and making his request, the numbers 834 appeared on the incense stick, which he decided to play for this draw according to his personal belief.

The atmosphere was bustling with many people continuing to arrive seeking blessings and lucky numbers. The shrine area was filled with toys and beer offerings, reflecting the widespread belief that "Kumarn Khong" brings luck nearly every draw. The statue reportedly provides not only Thai lottery numbers but also neighboring country lottery numbers daily. Items the statue favors include all brands of Thai and foreign beer, as well as toys brought daily by devoted believers.
