Residents of Nong Na Kham subdistrict in Mueang district, Udon Thani province, are furious after discovering someone illegally dumped sewage waste on a newly paved concrete road between Ban Don Phu and the landfill, releasing a powerful stench across the neighborhood and creating serious public distress. Residents worry that if rain falls, the contaminated waste could flow into their residential area and damage community sanitation. After the incident, Soranarin Wonganu, a member of the Udon Thani Provincial Administrative Organization (PAO) council, filed a formal complaint with investigators to track down the perpetrator and pursue legal action.

Wonganu disclosed that in the early morning hours of July 28, 2569, residents alerted him to the illegal dumping, estimated to have occurred between 2:00 and 3:00 a.m. When residents inspected the area, they found sewage scattered across the entire road surface with an overwhelming smell. Tire tracks indicated the waste had been intentionally dumped, and the perpetrator had already fled. Wonganu noted that while there are few septic trucks operating in the area, there is currently insufficient evidence to identify the specific person responsible. The complaint was filed as a record, and a warning was issued to the perpetrator to cease such behavior due to its serious impact on the public.

The PAO believes the dumping was deliberate and intentional rather than accidental, as illegal dumpers typically choose remote or roadside areas rather than dumping directly onto a newly constructed concrete road surface. The action has left the road filthy with an overpowering odor. Additionally, with the current rainy season, heavy rainfall could wash the sewage into residential areas, creating serious public health and sanitation problems affecting a wide population. "I have filed this complaint as an official record today," Wonganu stated. "If we find evidence of this happening again or identify who is responsible, we will pursue the fullest legal action to prevent such incidents from affecting our communities in the future."

The family of Thai travel YouTuber "Hlun Solo" said on Wednesday that he has still not been found after losing contact with relatives during a trip to Georgia.

Hlun travelled to Georgia to film travel content and last spoke with his brother on July 13. His family has been unable to reach him since and has appealed for help from relevant authorities.

In an update posted on the Facebook account Klose Mos on July 29, Hlun's brother asked the public to share only information confirmed by the family or people directly involved in the search. He urged people not to spread rumours, unverified claims or information without a clear source, warning that false reports could create confusion, disrupt the work of officials and cause further distress to the family.

Anyone with useful information was asked to contact the family or notify authorities directly.

"Thank you for every message of support and for helping us bring him home safely," the post said.

Responding to a comment asking whether Hlun had been found, his brother said the family had not received any confirmation from authorities or other parties that he had been located.

Thai residents in Georgia have also joined efforts to help search for the YouTuber, who has now been missing for more than two weeks.

Anyone with useful information can contact his brother through his Facebook account Klose Mos or notify the relevant Thai consular authorities.

Hlun Solo, a travel content creator with a following of 2.6 million on Facebook and 927,000 on YouTube, has lost contact with relatives while traveling in Georgia. The young YouTuber, who backpacks solo around the world, has inspired millions by sharing his journey across more than 50 countries.

Hlun grew up as an orphan in Kalasin Province after his father died in an accident when he was about four years old, leaving him in his grandmother's care. His family lived in poverty, farming rice with no money for education or regular meals. Determined to escape this life, he excelled in school, ranking first in his district high school. Unable to afford university, he worked at a Bangkok factory earning only 300 baht per day while renting a modest room for 2,000 baht monthly.

His persistence paid off when he won a scholarship to Chulalongkorn University. During his four years of study, the scholarship covered all expenses, allowing him to save 400,000 baht from part-time work including flyer distribution, tutoring, and online sales. After graduation, he used these savings to travel solo for over a year, visiting 17 countries initially and eventually more than 50 nations. His travel style is famously budget-conscious—using public transport, staying in cheap accommodations, and eating with locals. He now documents these adventures for his millions of online followers.

Police from Bang Bua Thong Station in Nonthaburi, along with volunteers from the Por Ror Dor Foundation, responded to a fatal traffic incident on Bangkruai-Sai Noi Road on July 29, 2025, at 5:50 a.m. The body of Mr. Su, 46, a Nakhon Si Thammarat resident, was found approximately 100 meters away in the middle of the road. A black Hyundai van was found at the scene with damage to the front bumper and cracked windshield, along with a bronze-silver Isuzu pickup truck on the opposite side. Dashboard camera footage captured the moment the van struck the man as he was crossing.

According to a 30-year-old coworker, the victim and his wife had just left their home, as they did every day—the husband waited to see his wife onto a songthiew before crossing the road to his job at a steel mill opposite the accident site. After his wife boarded, he began crossing when struck by the van while the songthiew was still at the pickup point, allowing his wife to witness the collision.

The van driver stated he did not see the pedestrian and hit him hard. The pickup truck driver reported seeing what appeared to be a black bag suddenly appear in front of his vehicle and was unable to brake in time, resulting in a second impact. He immediately pulled over and waited for authorities. Police collected dashboard footage as evidence and will conduct further interviews with both drivers. The victim's body was transferred to the Institute of Forensic Medicine for autopsy.
