Nongprue, Near Pattaya-In the late hours of April 17th, 2024, the quiet of Chonburi Province was shattered by an explosion at the Banglamung Ice Factory. The blast, which occurred at approximately 11:36 p.m., sent chemical clouds billowing into the night sky, prompting immediate action from local officials. The District Chief of Bang Lamung, Mr. Weekit Manarojkit, was swiftly informed of the catastrophe that unfolded at the facility located at No. 54, Village No. 12, Nong Prue Subdistrict. The explosion resulted in a chemical spread covering an area exceeding one kilometer, leading to a significant emergency response. First responders, including land disaster prevention officials from Nong Prue Municipality and Sawang Boriboon Thammasathan Pattaya rescue workers, converged on the scene. Their priority was the evacuation of individuals in the vicinity and the establishment of a perimeter, barring access within a two-kilometer radius to ensure public safety. The chemicals released, suspected to be ammonia, had immediate and severe effects on the local populace. More than 60 individuals suffered various injuries, ranging from loss of consciousness to respiratory distress and irritation of the eyes and nose. Rescue teams provided critical first aid before the victims were transported to nearby medical facilities for further treatment. Eyewitness accounts from villagers living near the ice factory described the moment of the explosion as deafening, followed by the emergence of a noxious cloud that caused a burning sensation upon inhalation.

Maybe they are hip to the “onward” gig The famous “listing without a booking” I bought one once to see if they are real It is a real PNR listing, just not paid for yet So not a confirmed flight reservation I guess if you called the airline and completed the payment in time it is a flight you could actually use I traveled for years on staff standby tickets Those are by definition not confirmed, but nobody ever asked -

Y'know, I'm thinking that perhaps the Thais should export Songkran festivities to other countries. I'd love to see hundreds of thousands spraying water on the Streets of San Francisco, it'd be a way to finally wash-away some of the human feces & urine all over the city. -
I had a similar situation with a 12Call sim Was some spammy daily charging 'service' the help at the call centre stopped it, refunded me and put a block on the account stopping any such BS from enacting itself in the future
