Thailand promotes road safety at the UN while tens of thousands die on Thai roads each year
Thailand is promoting its road-safety strategy on the world stage despite recording one of Asia’s worst motorcycle death tolls, as new figures reveal more than 14,000 riders died last year, British tourists remain under official travel warnings and two high-profile fatalities on Koh Samui have intensified international scrutiny.
An investigation into the latest UK-Thailand road safety talks reveals a stark contrast between diplomatic discussions on community checkpoints and helmet campaigns, and a road-safety crisis that continues to claim thousands of lives each year despite decades of government initiatives, tougher laws and repeated enforcement drives.

Thai woman exposes husband’s secret to mistress, sends her HIV medicine
A Thai wife is consulting a lawyer about taking legal action against her dishonest husband after delivering HIV medicine to his mistress, revealing his health secret.

Oil Fuel Fund risks B100-billion deficit as Red Sea crisis deepens
Thailand’s Oil Fuel Fund could slide back into a deficit of B100 billion if the government continues subsidizing fuel prices across the board, energy economist Praipol Koomsup warned yesterday, as Houthi attacks threatened the Red Sea route Saudi Arabia uses to bypass the Strait of Hormuz.
The warning came as most standard petrol, gasohol and diesel prices in Thailand rose by 90 satang a liter yesterday, while the fund was carrying fuel-subsidy costs of about B651.31 million a day. Its official net position stood at minus B61.5 billion as of July 19. Continued …
Three conflicts put a quarter of global oil flows at risk
Global energy supplies are being squeezed across three major shipping fronts, with conflicts threatening the Strait of Hormuz, the Red Sea route through Bab el-Mandeb and Russia’s Black Sea oil infrastructure at the same time.
Together, the affected routes account for roughly a quarter of global oil flows, exposing crude and refined-fuel markets to disruptions just as emergency reserves in the United States and other advanced economies stand near their lowest levels in decades. Continued …

US sets 12.5% tariff on Thai goods over forced labor

China’s Record Trade Surplus and What It Means for Thailand’s Economy
China’s export machine produced one of the most consequential economic statistics of recent years when it posted a record trade surplus of approximately USD 1.2 trillion for 2025. China’s customs data revealed exports hit USD 3.77 trillion in 2025, up 5.5% year-on-year, while imports remained flat at USD 2.58 trillion, yielding an unprecedented surplus that is equivalent to the GDP of a top-20 economy.
For Thailand — China’s largest trading partner in ASEAN and one of the region’s most export-dependent economies — the implications of that figure are neither straightforwardly good nor unambiguously bad. They are, more precisely, a study in structural tension: a country that benefits from Chinese investment and supply chain integration while simultaneously absorbing the competitive pressure of Chinese overcapacity across sector after sector. Continued …
AI Won’t Transform Thailand’s Economy
The current AI boom has triggered a wave of investment flowing into developing economies across Southeast Asia, including Thailand.

Thailand’s Energy Regulator: Clean Power Will Decide AI’s Future
If yesterday morning’s opening speeches at the Huawei Thailand Digital & AI Summit 2026 in Bangkok were about ambition, the address that followed was about plumbing. Poonpat Leesombatpaiboon, secretary-general of Thailand’s Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC), used his keynote — titled “Green Technology for AI Thailand: Powering the Foundation of the AI Era” — to argue that Thailand’s AI future will be decided as much in power plants and transmission lines as in data centers.
“Every era of human civilization has been defined by a critical piece of infrastructure,” Poonpat told delegates. Continued …

Thailand works on $700-million EV plan to replace 80,000 vehicles
Thailand is reviewing a 24-billion-baht ($714 million) plan to help replace up to 80,000 aging transport vehicles with EVs and evaluating whether it should be extended to cover all electric vehicle purchases as part of its energy-transition efforts.
The replacement of tens of thousands of standard vehicles with EVs would help boost Thailand’s struggling auto industry. Thailand is Southeast Asia’s largest automotive production hub, but domestic vehicle sales slumped to a 15-year low in 2024, as high household debt and tighter lending standards curbed demand, particularly for pickup trucks, a key sector of the market.
