Business leader Kan Jompluang visited Huai Yai Police Station in Chon Buri province on August 6 to donate advanced surveillance equipment intended to bolster crime prevention and policing operations in the area. The donation includes 40 closed-circuit cameras, 20 zoom lenses, 2 server units, and 2 hard drives for data storage. Police Commander Pol. Maj. Wrawut Nitywun accepted the equipment and expressed gratitude for the support, which will enhance the department's monitoring capabilities in the district.

The donation was prompted by public concern over a shocking crime that occurred in Huai Yai. Kan Jompluang stated his intention to deploy the surveillance system in high-risk zones, blind spots, and areas where crimes have previously occurred or where contraband and bodies might be concealed. He also led Thai families of three deceased Thai victims in a joint merit-making ceremony with families of Russian victims to pay respects and offer condolences to those affected by the incident.

The equipment comprises both outdoor-rated cameras designed to withstand sun and rain, and indoor cameras, along with server systems and data storage to allow officers to systematically manage footage and evidence.

Thailand's national football team trained on August 6, 2026, at BGTC 3 stadium in Pathum Thani to prepare for their final Group B match of the 2026 AFF Championship against Myanmar.

The session focused on recovery and maintaining fitness for players who did not play in the recent victory over the Philippines (1-0) before returning home yesterday.

Before training, right-back Varos Chutong said: "The Philippines match was difficult and tight, but we're happy we got the win and brought home three points. The senior players have given us guidance and support throughout. The difference from playing U23 is we have senior players supporting us, but in U23 we help each other with friends and younger players. Our goal against Myanmar is to secure three points and advance to the next round."

"From watching their last three matches, Myanmar is strong too, so we can't be careless. If we get the chance to score, we'll try to finish it. We ask Thai fans to come and cheer for us in big numbers."

Defender Nattapong Sairiya said: "After this, the coach wants everyone to recover their bodies as quickly as possible because the last three matches were tough and the travel was exhausting. Keeping three clean sheets across all three matches was because everyone worked hard together in training."

"I think everyone in the team can cover for each other and everyone has quality. We can play well together. Our match against Myanmar is at home, so we want to invite all fans to come cheer at the stadium. We will try our best. They are a strong team, and we will do our best and not be careless."

Thailand faces Myanmar in the final Group B match of the 2026 AFF Championship on August 8, 2026, at 20:00 at Rajamangala Stadium.

A municipal official in Yala has gone viral after a photo from an online budget meeting drew widespread attention over her colorful makeup style, with the official saying it reflects her personal confidence and has been part of her daily routine for more than 10 years.

The photo of Tassaneem Thapkham, head of the administrative division and acting head of the municipal office at Patae Subdistrict Municipality in Yaha district, was taken during a Zoom meeting on 3 August while officials were presenting the municipality's 2027 budget to a parliamentary subcommittee.

After the image was posted on the municipality's Facebook page, it quickly spread online, receiving millions of views, shares and comments. Tassaneem said she did not expect the reaction to become so large, with some users praising her while others criticized her appearance, particularly her eyebrows and eyelashes.

She said her makeup style is a personal preference that she has maintained for more than a decade, adding that it helps boost her confidence when working and meeting residents. "I want people to focus on my work, dedication and commitment to public service rather than appearance," she said.

Patae Municipality officials said the viral attention has become an opportunity to promote the municipality's work, with the post attracting more than 10 million views. They praised Tassaneem as a dedicated official and said her appearance has never affected her work performance.

OR reported first-half 2025 operating results with sales and service revenue of 381.79 billion baht, a 9.2% increase from the same period last year, as higher average fuel prices offset lower sales volumes amid Middle East tensions. EBITDA fell to 7.15 billion baht, down 35.2%, reflecting margin pressure in Mobility and Global divisions from energy market fluctuations and operational cost increases.

The Lifestyle segment remained a key growth driver, with Café Amazon achieving record sales of 117 million cups, up 4.5% from the previous quarter. The company expanded into food and beverage by partnering with Minor Food to operate brands including The Pizza Company, Dairy Queen, The Steak & More, and Chiho Ramen at fuel stations and commercial areas.

OR continued investments in future business segments, including EV charging network expansion through EV Station PluZ, digital platform development, and logistics enhancement via Thai Pipeline Network (TPN).

On sustainability, OR was selected for the Dow Jones Best-in-Class Indices Emerging Markets Index for the third consecutive year and received top sustainability scores from S&P Global within the retail sector, reflecting ESG-aligned operations.

The dispute between Jirithai, a northern Thai clothing brand, and its co-founder has centered on business ownership rights, product imagery, AI-manipulated images, and child custody—attracting significant online criticism. On August 6, Ms. Supitcha, Jirithai's owner, addressed Saad Online, apologizing to Phrae residents for remarks made in an earlier video and admitting to excessive emotion in her social media replies. She firmly denied her ex-husband's claim that a third party in their marital troubles was her friend, noting they had never attended the same school or university and lacked close friendship ties. Supitcha stated that messages circulated publicly do not prove infidelity and clarified she never met or had an improper relationship with the person in question. She explained that during the breakup decision, she traveled to Bangkok for two months to study fashion design to create distance, as her ex-husband had refused to move out and she could not endure ongoing struggles over business and lifestyle differences—the primary reason she sought to end the relationship.

Regarding her decision to post videos online, Supitcha said she was not attacking anyone but felt wronged after witnessing a café business accused of copying another's model; she believed she faced similar infringement regarding product presentation, image layout, fabric patterns, product naming, and unauthorized use of store photographs. After the divorce, she claimed to have offered her ex-husband stewardship of the shop to provide him income for child support and his own expenses—an well-intentioned offer that soured after she saw his Facebook messages, which she acknowledged she should not have read but appeared on her screen and she opened them, revealing what she perceived as disparaging remarks about her. This prompted her to exercise her legal rights to reclaim the shop and regain child custody, and she accepted responsibility for reading his messages.

Supitcha confirmed that all sales channels—email, phone numbers, and various sales accounts—remain registered under her name, and she has continued tracking customer shipments with documented evidence of parcel and delivery communications, contradicting claims she abandoned customers. She also stated she had previously offered to purchase all stock her ex-husband had produced and sell it under the Jirithai name, an offer he initially accepted.

On August 6, 2569, TikTok user @munjaainun posted a warning after being secretly filmed while using the men's restroom on the first floor of a shopping mall in the Siam area on August 5 at approximately 7:30 p.m. While using a toilet stall, the alert user noticed an orange smartphone protruding from the top of an adjacent stall in what appeared to be a filming position. He immediately knocked on the divider and shouted, then waited outside. When the man exited, the victim grabbed his shirt collar and demanded the video be deleted immediately. The suspect apologized and agreed to delete it, but as the victim was still adjusting his clothing, the man suddenly ran away.

After the incident, the victim filed a police report and worked with the mall to review CCTV footage. He decided to share his story not for sympathy but to warn the public that men's restrooms are not always safe spaces as commonly assumed. He urges everyone to remain vigilant when using public restrooms by observing the tops and gaps of stall dividers, and to seek immediate help from nearby people or staff if anything suspicious is noticed.

The victim is calling on anyone with information about the suspect or who was in the area at that time to report it to police. He emphasizes that such incidents should not be ignored or allowed to continue, as victims do not know what the perpetrator will do with the recorded footage in the future. He also appeals to others who have experienced similar violations to take action and report offenders rather than remain silent, as inaction allows predators to harm more people.
