  33. <p>The Meteorological Department reports that upper Thailand will experience thunderstorms and strong winds in some areas, with heavy rain expected in the northern and central regions, including Bangkok and its vicinity, as well as the eastern region. The southern region will also have heavy rain in some areas. A warning has been issued for increased rainfall across Thailand with heavy rain in some areas from May 22-26.</p>
  34. <p>The 24-hour weather forecast predicts that the southwest wind will cover upper Thailand, which will experience hot weather during the day. Additionally, a low-pressure area covering northern Vietnam will cause thunderstorms, strong winds in some areas, and heavy rain in the northern and central regions, including Bangkok and its vicinity, and the eastern region. Residents in these areas should be cautious of thunderstorms, strong winds, and heavy rain that may occur. Meanwhile, the southwest wind covering the Andaman Sea, the southern region, and the Gulf of Thailand, along with a low-pressure area covering Sumatra, will continue to bring heavy rain in some areas of the southern region. Residents in the southern region should be cautious of heavy rain.<br />

  40. From May 20-23, the southwest wind covering the Andaman Sea, Thailand, and the Gulf of Thailand will strengthen. Additionally, from May 22-26, a low-pressure area covering the Bay of Bengal, Myanmar, is expected to intensify. This will lead to increased rainfall across Thailand with heavy rain in some areas, particularly in the western parts of the northern and central regions, and the western coast of the southern region. Residents across Thailand should be cautious of heavy to very heavy rain and accumulated rainfall that may cause flash floods and forest runoff, especially in foothill areas near waterways and low-lying areas. Increased caution is also advised for those traveling through areas with thunderstorms.</p>
  41. <p>For the Andaman Sea and the Gulf of Thailand, waves are expected to intensify, with waves in the upper Andaman Sea reaching 2-3 meters and over 3 meters in thunderstorm areas. The lower Andaman Sea will see waves around 2 meters high, with over 2 meters in thunderstorm areas. The Gulf of Thailand will have waves around 1 meter high, and 1-2 meters offshore, with over 2 meters in thunderstorm areas. Mariners in the upper Andaman Sea should avoid sailing, while those in the lower Andaman Sea and the Gulf of Thailand should navigate with caution and avoid areas with thunderstorms.<br />

  109. <p>Jomtien Soi 5, which houses immigration, has been a one way street for nearly two months now, but you would never know it. The only wheeled traffic should be from Second Road to the beach, with the nearby Soi 7 being one way in the opposite direction. But the City Hall notices have mostly disappeared on Soi 5 and serious traffic jams occur on a daily basis as cars and vans persist in ignoring the rule. Heated arguments and impatient honking are almost a daily occurrence.<br />

  116. An added problem now is that the large car park on Soi 5 requires drivers to pay 40 baht as they enter which, again, causes traffic delays as they search for change or argue with the booth attendant about prices. Immigration says they are aware of the problem but point out that it’s the responsibility of the traffic division. There could be similar problems looming on Soi 11 and 13 of Pattaya Second Road which become one way on May 21 to link to Soi Buakhao.</p>

  189. <p><em>PATTAYA, Thailand</em> &#8211; Reports of electric scooters being rented out illegally at various tourist hotspots have prompted local authorities to launch an investigation to address the issue. The controversy erupted when news emerged of a business renting out seated electric scooters via an app, with the scooters placed at prominent tourist locations such as Pattaya Beach Road and Second Road. These scooters were often parked on sidewalks and in restricted areas, including the white-red curb zones at the entrance of Soi 1 on Pattaya Beach Road.<br />

  202. Pattaya City and Tourist Police inspected the company operating the scooter rentals at Duck Square, South Pattaya. Following the inspection, on May 16, key officials from the Pattaya police, city administration and municipal officers met at the Pattaya Police Station to devise legal measures to curb the illegal scooter rentals and ensure the safety of tourists and users.</p>
  203. <p>Officials reviewed the legal framework surrounding the operation of electric scooter rentals. The primary concern was whether these scooters could be legally registered and operated under current laws. The Chonburi Provincial Transport Office, Pattaya Branch, clarified that only cars, motorcycles, trailers, road rollers, and tractors meeting specific ministry regulations could be registered. Electric scooters and bicycles, not fitting these definitions, cannot be registered.<br />

  208. Consequently, using unregistered scooters on public roads contravenes the Motor Vehicle Act 1979, which imposes fines up to 10,000 baht for unregistered vehicle use. Moreover, allowing unlicensed drivers to operate vehicles can result in additional fines up to 2,000 baht.</p>
  209. <p>The meeting concluded with a unanimous decision to temporarily suspend all electric scooter rental services in Pattaya. Business operators were instructed to comply with legal and regulatory requirements before services could resume. A follow-up meeting to outline compliance procedures for operators is scheduled for Monday, May 20.<br />

  306. <p><em>PATTAYA, Thailand</em> &#8211; Local residents have raised concerns about business operators occupying areas of Na Jomtien Beach with chairs and tables for rental purposes, in direct violation of municipal regulations. On May 17, reporters investigated these claims and confirmed that entrepreneurs had indeed set up rental beach chairs and dining tables on the beach.<br />

  313. This unauthorized activity contradicts previous orders from the Na Jomtien Sub-district Municipality, which are clearly indicated by municipal signs. The beach is designated as a public area meant for communal use, and the sale of goods, food, or drinks, as well as the installation of any equipment for private business purposes, is strictly prohibited without permission. Violators are subject to strict legal action by the municipality.<br />

  317. Residents and tourists alike are perplexed by the entrepreneurs&#8217; blatant defiance of the municipal order, despite the clear signage indicating the regulations. Notably, there are two municipal enforcement checkpoints in the area, adding to the confusion as to why these violations continue unchecked.<br />

  323. The community is urging the Na Jomtien Sub-district Municipality to take immediate action by inspecting the situation, informing the business operators of the regulations, and enforcing the law decisively to prevent further violations. Residents hope that stronger enforcement will preserve the intended communal use of the beach and ensure that public spaces remain accessible to everyone.<br />

  363. <p><em>PATTAYA, Thailand</em> &#8211; Banglamung district officials, supported by local police, conducted a raid on an illegal gambling operation inside a café located on Pattaya Second Road, North Pattaya on the evening of May 17. The operation led to the arrest of nine foreign nationals, one dealer, and the establishment&#8217;s owner.<br />

  370. The raid was the result of a tip-off from an informant about ongoing illegal gambling activities at the café. Officials found the ground floor functioning as a regular café, while the second floor was covertly used for gambling where police discovered nine South Korean tourists and a dealer deeply engaged in a poker game. After securing the premises, officials checked the identification documents of everyone present and confirmed that none of the individuals were illegally in the country.<br />

  588. <p><em>PATTAYA, Thailand</em> &#8211; Pattaya faces an often-overlooked challenge: addressing the needs of homeless people who call the beach their home. In a compassionate initiative, Pattaya City authorities, alongside the Chonburi Provincial Homeless Protection Centre and other agencies, are striving to relocate these individuals to temporary welfare shelters.<br />

  595. While the initiative is noble, it encounters significant hurdles. Many homeless individuals prefer the freedom of the streets over the confines of a shelter, a choice protected by law and human rights regulations. For them, the beach offers a sense of autonomy and connection to their chosen lifestyle, despite its hardships.</p>

  597. <p>A social worker with the Chonburi Provincial Homeless Protection Centre explains, &#8220;We understand that for many, moving into a shelter feels like a loss of freedom. Our job is to offer support, not force a lifestyle change. We aim to provide options that respect their choices.&#8221;</p>
  598. <p>The initiative focuses on balancing the provision of necessary support with respect for personal liberties. Temporary shelters provide not just a roof, but access to healthcare, meals, and social services, aiming to enhance the overall quality of life. Authorities are determined to meet physical needs while also considering the emotional and psychological well-being of the homeless community.<br />

  602. For individuals like Uncle Lek, who has lived on Pattaya Beach for over a decade, the beach is more than just a place to sleep; it embodies a way of life. &#8220;This is my home,&#8221; he says. &#8220;I&#8217;ve seen the sunrise here every day for years. Moving to a shelter feels like losing my freedom.&#8221;</p>

  604. <p>Despite these deeply rooted preferences, the city remains committed to offering support. Mobile units visit areas where homeless individuals gather, providing medical assistance, food, and information about available shelters. These units serve as a bridge, offering help while respecting individuals&#8217; choices to stay on the streets.</p>
  605. <p>&#8220;The challenge is not just providing shelter but ensuring the homeless community feels respected and heard,&#8221; says a Pattaya City official. &#8220;We want them to know we are here to support them, not to control them. This ongoing effort underscores a delicate balancing act: offering a helping hand without imposing solutions.”<br />
