Mind Music Record has officially welcomed Pui, the viral sensation known for her pink bedding and Doraemon pillow clips, into its roster. Label founder Prachai Chai announced the signing, emphasizing that while everyone deserves a second chance, he won't recruit artists based solely on viral moments without genuine singing ability. "If we only take people who've gone viral from TikTok trends, then any singer could become a hundred," Chai posted. "That's not how we work."

Pui, grateful for the opportunity, bowed respectfully and addressed the backlash: "I ask society to look at this from another angle. I was also a victim in this situation. Please give me a chance." Her apology has drawn mixed reactions online, with some offering support while others argue the label should have given the opportunity to a more accomplished singer instead.

Meanwhile, Mind Music Record is crowdsourcing ideas for Pui's debut single title, inviting fans to submit suggestions. Proposed names have included "I Don't Know So He Said I'm Single," "He Tricked Me Into Thinking He Wasn't Married," and "Tears on Pink Sheets."

The signing has ignited broader debate about merit versus second chances in the entertainment industry, with passionate comments flooding social media both criticizing and defending the label's decision.

Officers from Nimitr Mai Police Station found a 3-year-old girl cycling alone near Hattayarat Soi in Bangkok's Khlong Samwa district around 11:30 p.m. on July 9. A passerby spotted the child riding on Hattayarat Road and called her to the sidewalk. When questioned, the girl said she wanted to cycle to Fashion Island to meet her older sister. Police questioned her, returned her home, and contacted her 26-year-old mother to pick her up. Officers advised the mother on proper child supervision, warning that leaving young children unsupervised outdoors poses serious safety risks.

Deputy Agriculture Minister Watcharapol Khaokhram revealed the results of a meeting to address Thailand's dairy industry problems, held with representatives from the Thai Dairy Cooperative Federation across five regions. The meeting discussed four main issues: clearing excess school milk from storage, expanding the school milk supplementation program to Grade 9, managing powdered milk imports under free trade agreements, and reviving the Thai Dairy Sector Organization (TDSO). The Agriculture Ministry will coordinate with relevant agencies to determine solutions promptly based on farmer proposals.

To address the excess school milk problem, the Department of Cooperative Promotion, Department of Livestock Development, and TDSO have been tasked with surveying remaining milk quantities, product shelf life, and updating related data to develop a milk inventory management plan and handle raw milk production from farmers. The ministry will also discuss adjusting school milk allocation proportions with government officials and relevant agencies to increase channels for dairy cooperatives and TDSO to distribute their products.

Khaokhram stated that regarding the proposal to expand the school milk program to Grade 9, he has been pushing the initiative since taking office. The Department of Livestock Development has updated details and submitted information to the Prime Minister's Office after revising figures based on observations. The cabinet will be urged to consider the proposal soon, with an estimated budget of approximately 1 billion baht and the ability to handle about 90 tons of raw milk daily.

As for the proposal to provide school milk year-round 365 days, the Agriculture Ministry is reviewing it. However, preliminary assessment shows it would require approximately 14 billion baht, exceeding the current budget framework. The ministry will discuss this with the Agriculture Minister and government to determine appropriate approaches, potentially starting with increasing milk distribution during school holidays or summer breaks.

Regarding concerns about powdered milk imports under trade agreements, Khaokhram confirmed the ministry is developing farmer capacity, enhancing competitiveness under free trade frameworks, and reducing production costs while increasing farmer incomes to minimize impacts.

The meeting also acknowledged collaboration between TDSO and the Rubber Authority of Thailand to process excess raw milk into "amino milk" nutrient products for plants, adding value to raw milk and managing excess supplies. The Rubber Authority plans to expand operations to create more channels for milk utilization and increase returns to cooperatives and farmers.

On reviving TDSO, Khaokhram stated the goal is sustainable organizational recovery, not just addressing immediate problems. Plans include accelerating organization revival, appointing relevant committees, and securing funding to improve management efficiency, develop products, enhance production processes, and strengthen raw milk procurement from farmers.

"Farmers are my priority, and I have no vested interests in any sector," Khaokhram said. "Issues that can be resolved will be expedited. For issues requiring time, I will closely coordinate with all agencies and continuously update farmers. The goal is concrete, tangible problem-solving."

A wife was left devastated after discovering her 29-year-old husband dead in their bedroom following job loss and stress. She revealed his final words during a video call, never imagining they would be their last.

On July 10, 2025, Deputy Lieutenant Sirichai Phothichak, an investigator with Muang District Police Station in Udon Thani, reported that on July 9, officers responded to a death at a two-story residential house in Muang District, Udon Thani. Police arrived with a forensic doctor from Udon Thani Hospital and rescue personnel from Udon Sawangmethadham Foundation. They found the body of a 29-year-old man identified as A (pseudonym) in the bedroom. Relatives and close friends arrived at the scene with deep sorrow, especially the wife, who collapsed in tears upon arrival, unable to believe their farewell that morning would be their last.

During questioning, the wife B (pseudonym), 33, stated that the night before the incident, they had discussed their future and family financial burdens after her husband quit his job nearly a month prior. She had only suggested he apply for work at restaurants and urged him to stay strong, noting they still had expenses and two children to support. However, he fell silent and appeared discouraged, believing he was worthless and misunderstanding that she no longer loved him.

Throughout their relationship, whenever they argued, he would engage in self-harm, once breaking his wrist punching a wall. Recently, he had frequently said he would not live past age 30. Everyone thought these were just words from stress and tried to comfort and encourage him. No one anticipated these would become a premonition.

On the morning of the incident, everything seemed normal. He woke up, cooked rice, and showered before they both left for work. During her drive, he called and video called, but she was busy driving and couldn't talk long. Before hanging up, he said briefly, "I wish you good luck." She thought it was just sullen banter and didn't pay attention.

Shortly after arriving at work, a neighbor called with devastating news: her husband was found dead at home. She was shocked and only then realized that "I wish you good luck" was his final goodbye she would never hear again.

His aunt reported that she was preparing to bring rice to her bed-ridden son next door when she noticed a burnt smell coming from inside the house. Checking the kitchen, she found burnt rice and quickly turned off the gas, calling out to ask her nephew to come out. When he didn't respond and she opened his bedroom door, she found him already deceased. She was shocked and never imagined he would do this.

Initially, officers believe the victim may have been under accumulated stress from job loss combined with feelings of worthlessness and personal problems, which led him to take his own life. Officials will proceed according to legal procedures before releasing the body to family for religious rites.

Jürgen Klopp, former Liverpool manager, has revealed how the Reds attempted to sign French international striker Kylian Mbappé during his time at Monaco by chartering a private jet for negotiations. While Liverpool showed strong interest in bringing Mbappé to Anfield when Klopp was in charge, the player ultimately decided to join Paris Saint-Germain in 2017 for €180 million. Recently, Klopp, now serving as a special commentator for the 2026 World Cup, encountered Mbappé again following France's 2-0 victory over Morocco in the quarterfinals. On that occasion, Klopp disclosed the extent of Liverpool's efforts to sign the then-27-year-old star, describing the negotiation process as the club's most expensive non-transfer investment due to the private jet charter. "This was an investment that wasn't a purchase—the most expensive thing the club has ever done," Klopp explained. "Mbappé's entire family boarded a private jet with five bedrooms or something like that [traveling from Blackpool to Nice, France]. We spared no effort. We flew around and spoke with his family, had wonderful meals together." He added with a hint of regret: "We flew around—it was wonderful. And then he went to Paris."

Hugo Broos has confirmed his resignation as South Africa's national team coach, despite successfully leading the team to the World Cup knockout round for the first time. While he had previously stated before the 2026 World Cup that he would step down, his position wavered after South Africa lost to Canada in the round of 32 on June 28, when he suggested he might stay on. However, in an interview in his native Belgium, Broos made clear he will not continue as South Africa's coach, although he indicated he could serve in an advisory capacity. "Will I continue as a coach? No, that's definite," Broos said. "If they want me to do something else, like player recruitment, that's another matter. But football won't be part of my life 24/7 anymore." He added that he has spoken with the South African Football Association president, who wants him to remain in a different role as a consultant or similar position. Broos will return in late July for a final farewell and to hear what the federation proposes. After five years in the role, Broos became the longest-serving coach in the country's history and led South Africa to the World Cup knockout round for the first time in 16 years.
