Actress Pim Pimprapa has updated fans on her romance with 'Highso Tam,' declaring she won't look at anyone else and secretly awaits a marriage proposal. After filming a home tour of Tam's luxury residence on Koh Samui, many viewers wondered whether the house might eventually become a wedding venue. Pim explained that Tam invested considerable effort into the two-year construction project, which remains under development. She confirmed the house belongs to Tam and features multiple bedrooms designed for friends and family to visit.

When asked if she's ready to be a Samui housewife, Pim responded she would become whatever he needs. Currently, she focuses on her career and personal growth while nurturing their relationship. She emphasized they are already planning a shared future together at their age, though neither has specific expectations about children or timeline. Pim described how Tam shows his care through concrete gestures—ordering her favorite meals or stocking her preferred snacks in the refrigerator—without explicit words of love.

Pim reciprocates by bringing happiness and support to his life daily. Regarding relationship adjustments, she believes no partnership is 100 percent perfect and both are ready to learn and adapt to each other. When asked if she would say yes if he proposed today, she shyly admitted she's secretly waiting for that moment, though she hasn't discussed marriage timelines with him and isn't rushing.

Celebrity Man Karin Phattraphat, along with companion Buung Sadhee Bai Yok, led her fan club 'Tiger Jade' on a merit-making pilgrimage to Wat Suthat Thepwararam to pray at three sacred sites for spiritual enhancement and karmic forgiveness. The first location is the main Buddha image in the ordination hall, described as highly sacred and conducive to meditation and chanting. The second is Luang Pho Klak Fin, recommended for those facing life obstacles and difficulties, with the suggestion to visit monthly to address accumulated karma and karmic debts. The third and main highlight is Thao Wessuwannna at Wat Suthat, a legendary statue originating from the era of Chao Khun Sri, believed to grant protection in matters of wealth, financial stability, prosperity, and safety from accidents and harm. Karin shared her personal testimony that after two visits three years ago, major problems she faced were resolved, inspiring her to share this temple with others. She emphasized that people should visit regularly, as unknowingly throughout daily life one may create new karma or offend others. She also recommended using the donation box, called the 'sangha debt clearance box,' to help cleanse one's karmic debts.

On July 15, 2025, at 7:30 a.m., Cambodian troops fired three shots in a gap between Kana and Ta Kwaai temples in Naengmud subdistrict, Kabchang District, Surin Province—approximately 500 meters from a Thai military position. Thai soldiers responded with five warning shots as a standard safety measure. Cambodian forces did not return fire, and the situation quickly returned to normal. The Second Army Region confirmed that Thai forces remained safe and Cambodian troops made no counter-response. Thai troops continue close monitoring and cautious operations in the area. Since April 2025, Cambodian troops have caused 19 incidents of gunfire and explosions along the border, particularly near Huay Tamaria and Khong Kanam.

On July 15, 2569, a team of archaeologists from the Fine Arts Department's Ratchaburi office, in coordination with conservation science staff, were preparing foam blocks to protect skeletal remains at the Don Yai Thong archaeological site in Ban Don Plab, Samoe Phlue subdistrict, Ban Lad district, Phetchaburi province. The excavation, which began on July 2, has extracted skeletal remains of a human estimated to be 1,500–2,000 years old, along with four bronze drums and bovine teeth. Two gold rings were discovered on July 2 afternoon, with one bearing Brahmi script reading "Pusrakkhita," referring to one protected by the star Pushya, according to Dr. Uthen Wongsasit, an archaeologist at Silpakorn University and ancient language experts from the Fine Arts Department, who dated the script to the 5th–7th Buddhist century, or approximately 1,900–2,100 years ago.

Led by Nipa Sangkanakindr, director of the Ratchaburi Fine Arts office, and Kannika Premjai, the excavation team leader, the team has been carefully excavating soil around the first set of skeletal remains (numbered 1–4), particularly around the skull area, which is adorned with ancient brass ornaments. The team decided to raise all four skulls together as one unit, requiring coordination with conservation scientists to excavate a rectangular platform approximately 40–50 centimeters deep and apply PU foam to all four sides to prevent the soil around the skulls from fragmenting or cracking.

For the base, soil will be excavated to accommodate pre-cast concrete panels to support the foundation layer, with PU foam applied beneath to prevent cracking. Once the entire soil platform is sealed with PU foam on all sides and the base, it will be lifted from the excavation pit. The platform, including the concrete panels, is estimated to weigh approximately one ton. The excavation is challenging due to the skull unit's proximity to a second set of skeletal remains (numbered 5–8), combined with clay soil conditions and continuous groundwater seepage, making the work difficult for the team.

On July 15, 2025, Interior Ministry Permanent Secretary Arisit Sampatharatana appeared at the Central Investigation Bureau to brief journalists on the local government civil service exam fraud case. He stated that the Prime Minister has been closely monitoring the situation and attended today's central examination committee meeting as one of its members. After delegating initial oversight, Arisit found his own name under investigation, prompting his personal attendance. The Prime Minister wanted an update on the committee's review of all prior proceedings.

During today's meeting, irregularities were discovered in three rounds of 15,000 appointees, with 14,988 reporting for duty out of 15,520 who passed. Investigators compared submitted candidates' scores against raw answer sheets kept in safes and found 5,814 individuals with score discrepancies: 3,621 candidates had scores artificially inflated from failing to passing; 1,713 had scores bumped up to secure higher rankings; and 480 others had single-point errors or unclear scans requiring verification against the Anti-Corruption Commission's sealed documents.

When asked why the Prime Minister did not simply revoke the appointments himself, Arisit explained this follows the law governing local government procedures. The Interior Minister chairs the committee but must include representatives from all three local government bodies and their secretaries—six officials total—plus outside experts. Since the committee is collectively composed and appointed, not unilaterally designated by the Premier, decisions require joint deliberation. The 5,814 flagged appointments have been referred to the three local government committees for further action. If revocation proceeds, a complete recount will be needed and qualified candidates from the remaining pool will fill positions. Currently, all score sheets and answer documents are held by the National Anti-Corruption Commission.
