Episode #555: Note: this podcast episode includes frank anatomical language and extended discussion of women's bodies, including terms for female genitalia, in the context of human rights, state abuse, and activist movements. Reader and listener discretion is advised.“[They say that] Thailand is the only country that has never been colonized. But it's not true!” Kornkanok “Pup” Khumta, an activist from Isaan, argues that the myth of sovereignty hides a colonial order, where Bangkok defines language, history, development, and which bodies are allowed to exist. Isaan, she says, is Lao in language and culture, and the borders that separate people along the Mekong are still newer than the state admits. “People in Isaan, we have been brainwashed to be Thai people,” she says, adding that even the word “Thai” itself is a recent invention. Pup describes Siam's consolidation as violent, then sustained through schooling that punishes local speech and replaces regional memory with a Siam-centered story. The same center–periphery structure shapes “development” as extraction: resources flow to Bangkok while poverty in the northeast is treated as normal. Generations migrate to the capital for education and wages, leaving Isaan hollowed out, a place many return to only for Songkran or New Year. At Thammasat University, Pup expected democratic critique but instead found classmates aiming for bureaucratic power. She pushed back, arguing provincial governors should be elected, not appointed from Bangkok. After the 2014 coup, she tested the regime's limits with quiet protest and was arrested, learning that visibility alone can trigger punishment. Later, after refusing to sign a pledge to stop political activity, she was sent into prison, and processed through searches that turned discipline into bodily violation. That experience sharpened her feminism. She framed organizing around bodily autonomy, using taboo-breaking protest—speaking openly about female body parts and insisting democracy includes control over one's body. Pup then moved to extend her politics beyond borders, rejecting ASEAN's “non-interference” policy as a cover for authoritarian cooperation, including support for Myanmar's military. For her, constitutional change in Thailand is the hinge between refuge and repression—and survival requires joy: “I believe in fun,” she says, because despair is also a weapon. “We are at the point that we don't have to belong to any state,” she says. “I mean, we can just treat each other as a humans and we can all come together against all forms of repression.”

VOV1 - Cảnh sát Thái Lan hôm 16/4 thông báo tiếp tục triệt phá một đường dây lớn, thu giữ số ma túy trị giá hơn 300 triệu Bạt (Baht), tương đương khoảng 9,3 triệu đô la Mỹ.Trung tướng Wattana Yeejeen, Tư lệnh Cảnh sát Vùng 1 mới đây cho biết, lực lượng chức năng đã tiến hành một chiến dịch truy quét nhằm vào mạng lưới ma túy có tên “Bank Phetchabun”. Nhóm tội phạm này bị đưa vào diện theo dõi đặc biệt sau khi giới chức Thái Lan phát hiện manh mối trong quá trình mở rộng điều tra một vụ án ma túy tại tỉnh Ayutthaya hồi tháng 3/2026.Theo Tư lệnh cảnh sát Vùng 1, nhóm tội phạm này hoạt động với phương thức rất tinh vi. Các đối tượng sử dụng một đoàn xe, gồm xe dẫn đường, xe cảnh giới và xe chở hàng để vận chuyển hơn 9,5 triệu viên ma túy tổng hợp đến kho chứa tại tỉnh Ayutthaya (cách thủ đô Bangkok khoảng 80km) vào ngày 13/4, đúng dịp lễ hội Songkran. Kho chứa ma túy được ngụy trang thành kho chứa me nhằm che đậy hành vi phạm tội.Giới chức Thái Lan đã tiến hành vụ đột kích vào rạng sáng ngày 14/4 và bắt giữ 3 nghi phạm. Một đối tượng khác, được cho là người điều phối hoạt động của đường dây đã bỏ trốn. Cảnh sát đang hoàn tất thủ tục để ban hành lệnh truy bắt. Trung tướng Wattana cũng chỉ đạo tiếp tục mở rộng điều tra nhằm triệt phá toàn bộ các mắt xích trong mạng lưới và truy vết khối tài sản phi pháp từ hoạt động phạm tội.Trước đó, ngay trước thềm lễ hội Songkran, ngày 10/4, lực lượng chức năng Thái Lan cũng đã thu giữ gần 2 tấn ma túy đá được ngụy trang tinh vi trên một xe tải chuẩn bị xuống phà tại bến Seahorse, gần trung tâm thủ đô Bangkok, để đi tới đảo du lịch Koh Samui. Cùng thời điểm, tại tỉnh Khon Kaen (Đông Bắc Thái Lan), giới chức cũng bắt giữ 3 người mang quốc tịch Malaysia trong lúc đang vận chuyển 97kg ma túy đá. Những nỗ lực của lực lượng chức năng Thái Lan góp phần quan trọng đảm bảo an toàn cho người dân và du khách quốc tế trong dịp diễn ra lễ hội Songkran. Riêng tại thủ đô Bangkok, mùa lễ hội năm nay ước tính đã thu hút gần 5 triệu người tham gia các hoạt động vui chơi, tăng hơn 90% so với năm trước./.VOV Thái LanCảnh sát Thái Lan kiểm tra tang vật vụ án - Nguồn Cảnh sát Vùng 1 Thái Lan

VOV1 - Trung tâm điều hành chống lừa đảo trực tuyến Thái Lan mới đây ghi nhận hơn 7.300 vụ lừa đảo trực tuyến trong tuần vừa qua, gây thiệt hại lớn về tài sản. Giới chức Thái Lan đã phát đi cảnh báo về một số thủ đoạn lừa đảo phổ biến trong dịp lễ hội Songkran mừng Tết cổ truyền nước này.Cảnh sát Hoàng gia Thái Lan hôm qua (13/4) cho biết, các vụ lừa đảo xảy ra trong tuần vừa qua đã gây thiệt hại gần 400 triệu Baht (khoảng 12,3 triệu USD).

Trong khi đó, các vụ lừa đảo liên quan cơ hội đầu tư và việc làm dù ít hơn về số lượng nhưng lại gây thiệt hại lớn, chiếm hơn một nửa tổng thiệt hại. Phụ nữ bị nhắm đến nhiều hơn nam giới, nhất là trong độ tuổi 21 - 30.Trung tâm điều hành chống lừa đảo trực tuyến Thái Lan (AOC) nhận định, trong bối cảnh dịp lễ hội Songkran đang diễn ra, nguy cơ lừa đảo trực tuyến có thể gia tăng.

Then we moved down to Pattaya, where the energy shifts again — a bit wilder, more nightlife-focused, and very much geared towards visitors looking for a party atmosphere.And finally, we wrapped things up in Chiang Mai, where Songkran arguably reaches its peak in terms of tradition mixed with absolute chaos — the old city turning into one massive water fight with an incredible sense of community and celebration.So whether you're thinking of experiencing Songkran for yourself or just curious about how different each city really feels during the festival, we've covered the full picture.Let's bring it all together.:::

VOV1 - Chính phủ Thái Lan đang triển khai các biện pháp khẩn cấp để đối phó với tình trạng cháy rừng và ô nhiễm bụi mịn PM2.5 ngày càng nghiêm trọng tại khu vực miền Bắc.Theo Bộ Nội vụ Thái Lan, tính đến chiều 4/4, ba tỉnh Chiang Mai, Lamphun và Phayao đã chính thức ban bố tình trạng hỗ trợ thảm họa khẩn cấp tại 17 huyện. Quyết định này cho phép các Tỉnh trưởng kích hoạt quỹ dự phòng ngân sách năm 2026 nhằm đẩy nhanh công tác cứu hỏa, hỗ trợ y tế và phục hồi địa phương.Trong khi đó, tỉnh Nan cũng ban hành lệnh khẩn cấp đóng cửa 9 khu rừng quốc gia tại các huyện Na Noi và Wiang Sa đến hết ngày 30/4. Người dân chỉ được phép vào khu vực nếu có giấy phép bằng văn bản từ lãnh đạo cộng đồng hoặc cơ quan kiểm lâm. Các hành vi vi phạm, đặc biệt đốt rừng và nương rẫy, sẽ bị xử phạt nghiêm khắc với mức án từ 1 đến 20 năm tù hoặc phạt tiền tối đa 200.000 baht (hơn 6.000 USD).Miền Bắc Thái Lan hiện đối mặt với khủng hoảng khói mù nghiêm trọng nhất trong nhiều năm, chủ yếu do đốt phụ phẩm nông nghiệp và cháy rừng. Địa hình đồi núi khiến khói bụi bị giữ lại, gây khó khăn cho công tác chữa cháy. Tại Chiang Mai – đô thị lớn thứ hai của Thái Lan – hệ thống IQAir liên tục xếp thành phố vào nhóm ô nhiễm nhất thế giới. Ở thị trấn du lịch Pai (Mae Hong Son), nồng độ PM2.5 có thời điểm vượt 900 µg/m³, cao gấp 60 lần khuyến nghị của Tổ chức Y tế Thế giới (WHO). Loại hạt siêu nhỏ này có thể xâm nhập sâu vào phổi, đi vào máu, làm tăng nguy cơ bệnh tim mạch, hô hấp và ung thư.Khói bụi không chỉ khiến số ca bệnh hô hấp tăng vọt mà còn ảnh hưởng nặng nề đến ngành du lịch ngay trước kỳ lễ Songkran. Để bảo vệ người dân, chính quyền đã triển khai hàng trăm “phòng không bụi” với hệ thống lọc không khí, đặc biệt tại các cơ sở chăm sóc người cao tuổi. Tuy nhiên, các tổ chức môi trường cho rằng biện pháp hiện tại chưa đủ, đồng thời kêu gọi Chính phủ sớm thông qua Dự luật Không khí sạch vốn đang bị đình trệ. Nếu không được thông qua trước thời điểm giữa tháng 5, dự luật sẽ phải khởi động lại từ đầu.Theo Bộ Y tế công cộng Thái Lan, bụi mịn PM2.5 đã ở ngưỡng cảnh báo đỏ tại 9 tỉnh gồm Nan, Phayao, Lampang, Lamphun, Chiang Rai, Chiang Mai, Phrae, Mae Hong Son và Nakhon Phanom; cùng ngưỡng cam tại 28 tỉnh khác. Giới chức khuyến cáo người dân hạn chế ra ngoài, đeo khẩu trang và chủ động các biện pháp bảo vệ sức khỏe, trong bối cảnh chất lượng không khí dự báo còn tiếp tục xấu trong những ngày tới.VOV-BangkokCháy rừng ở miền Bắc Thái Lan.

VOV1 - Sáng 31/3, Công báo Hoàng gia Thái Lan chính thức công bố danh sách thành viên Chính phủ của tân Thủ tướng Anutin Charnvirakul do Nhà Vua Thái Lan Maha Vajiralongkorn phê chuẩn. Đây là cột mốc quan trọng mở đường cho liên minh cầm quyền triển khai gói chính sách tham vọng "Thailand 10 Plus".Theo danh sách được công bố, Chính phủ mới của Thái Lan gồm 35 thành viên, thể hiện sự phân bổ quyền lực giữa đảng Tự hào Thái (Bhumjaithai) cầm quyền và các đối tác liên minh, trong đó có đảng Vì nước Thái (Pheu Thai).Đáng chú ý, ông Phiphat Ratchakitprakarn được bổ nhiệm làm Phó Thủ tướng kiêm Bộ trưởng Giao thông; ông Ekniti Nitithanprapas giữ chức Phó Thủ tướng kiêm Bộ trưởng Tài chính; trong khi ông Sihasak Phuangketkeow đảm nhiệm cương vị Phó Thủ tướng kiêm Bộ trưởng Ngoại giao. Về phía đảng Vì nước Thái, ông Julapun Amornvivat giữ chức Bộ trưởng Lao động và ông Suriya Jungrungreangkit đảm nhiệm vai trò Bộ trưởng Nông nghiệp và Hợp tác xã.Nội các mới sẽ thực hiện nghi lễ tuyên thệ nhậm chức trước Nhà Vua trong thời gian tới, trước khi Thủ tướng Anutin Charnvirakul trình bày tuyên bố chính sách trước Quốc hội, dự kiến diễn ra từ ngày 7 - 9/4.Trọng tâm trong chương trình nghị sự của Chính phủ mới là gói chính sách kinh tế mang tên "Thailand 10 Plus" với mục tiêu thúc đẩy tăng trưởng GDP trung bình của Thái Lan đạt mức ít nhất 3% mỗi năm.Gói chính sách "Thailand 10 Plus" tập trung vào 4 trụ cột chiến lược bao gồm: Thúc đẩy tăng trưởng bao trùm thông qua giảm chi phí sinh hoạt và hỗ trợ doanh nghiệp vừa và nhỏ (SME); Nâng cao năng lực cạnh tranh bằng đào tạo nhân lực và chuyển đổi kinh tế xanh; Triển khai các biện pháp kích cầu tiêu dùng nhanh và quản lý nợ hộ gia đình; và Thu hút đầu tư vào 6 ngành công nghiệp trọng điểm như thực phẩm tương lai, xe điện (EV) và công nghệ cao.Bên cạnh đó, Chính phủ của Thủ tướng Anutin cũng đề ra các phương án chủ động ứng phó với 4 nhóm thách thức lớn gồm: Thiên tai, biến động kinh tế toàn cầu, an ninh quốc gia và các vấn đề xã hội như phòng chống ma túy. Đáng chú ý là kế hoạch lập Quỹ Bảo hiểm thiên tai với mức bồi thường trực tiếp 100.000 baht (khoảng hơn 3000 USD) cho mỗi hộ gia đình bị ảnh hưởng, cùng mô hình “Mỗi làng một điều dưỡng tình nguyện” để chăm sóc người cao tuổi.Nội các mới cũng dự kiến thúc đẩy các chính sách an sinh xã hội, bao gồm đảm bảo thu nhập tối thiểu 3.000 baht/tháng (92 USD) cho người dân và triển khai Luật Giáo dục Quốc gia mới nhằm hiện đại hóa hệ thống trường học.Việc phê chuẩn Nội các mới diễn ra trong bối cảnh dư luận Thái Lan kỳ vọng chính phủ liên minh sẽ sớm ổn định tình hình chính trị và triển khai các biện pháp phục hồi kinh tế hiệu quả trước kỳ nghỉ lễ năm mới Songkran vào giữa tháng 4 tới./. VOV Thái LanTân Thủ tướng Anutin Charnvirakul tiếp nhận sắc phong của Nhà Vua Thái Lan hôm 20/3/2026.

But this April… something else was blooming inside me.四月的雨会带来五月的花,但今年四月,在我内心开花的,是更不可思议的东西。�第一段:Pai 遇见 Edu(Meeting Edu in Pai)In early April, I left Chiang Mai and headed to the dreamy mountain town of Pai.四月初,我离开清迈,前往梦幻山城拜县。On my second day there, I met Edu—a Muay Thai trainee from the Canary Islands of Spain.抵达的第二天,我认识了 Edu,一位来自西班牙加那利群岛的泰拳训练者。To my surprise, we clicked immediately. We had so much in common!令我惊讶的是,我们一见如故,发现彼此竟有好多共通点!We both had traveled to only one South American country—Peru.我们都只去过一个南美国家,就是秘鲁。And guess what? We both tried Ayahuasca there.你猜怎样?我们都在那里体验过死藤水。Even crazier, we were both heading back to Chiang Mai on the same Friday—me for a Thai dance performance, and him for a Muay Thai fight.更巧的是,我们同一天周五都要回清迈,我要去跳泰舞,他则要参加拳击赛。�第二段:泰舞、拳击与新年狂欢(Performances & Songkran)That week was magical. He came to see my Thai dance performance, and I went to cheer for his Muay Thai match.那几天真像一场梦。他来看我跳泰舞,我也去为他的比赛加油。There was definitely a spark between us, but we had different future plans.我们之间确实有些火花,但我们的未来规划不同。We talked openly and maturely, and agreed to stay friends.我们很成熟地谈开,决定做朋友就好。Then came Songkran—Thailand's water festival.接着就是泰国新年泼水节!We ran around like kids with water guns, ice buckets, and laughter.我们像小孩一样奔跑、拿着水枪和冰桶,疯狂大笑。Those moments reminded me of how beautiful it is to play.那些时刻让我想起:“玩”其实是一种祝福。�第三段:遇见 Evert 与魔幻体验(Meeting Evert & the Mushroom Trip)After all the fun, I returned to Pai a little sick and tired.狂欢过后,我带着一点感冒回到了拜县。There, my another new friend, Evert, who I had met in Chiang Mai during Songkran. He was planning a trip to Pai too.在那里,我一位我在泰国新年在清迈认识的新朋友 Evert,他也正打算来 Pai 度假。The second time we met… he showed up at my room—with magic mushrooms.第二次见面,他竟然带着蘑菇来我房间。It was my first time trying mushrooms.那是我第一次尝试蘑菇。I saw beauty so intense, it brought tears to my eyes.我看到的美景让我感动到落泪。I also went deep into self-reflection.我也进入了很深层的内在反思。�第四段:内在觉醒与持续探索(Inner Awakening)After that first time, I actually tried mushrooms two more times.那次之后,我又尝试了两次蘑菇。One time, I was completely alone.有一次,是我独自在房间里进行的。The other time, I was with a healer I met at a hot spring in Pai.另一次,是和一位在 Pai 的温泉遇见的疗愈师一起,那次非常特别。She created a safe, sacred space for us, and I saw so much more.她为我们营造了一个安全而神圣的空间,而我看见的东西更多了。Not just with my eyes—but with my heart.不只是用眼睛,而是用心。Each experience brought new clarity, healing, and wonder.每一次的体验,都带来新的清明、疗愈与惊奇。� 结语(Reflection & Call to Action)This April reminded me:The most magical journeys don't always happen across countries—they happen inside.这个四月提醒了我,最神奇的旅程不一定跨越国界,而是发生在我们内心深处。What did April awaken in you?你的四月,又唤醒了你什么呢?Thanks for joining me on this journey.感谢你与我同行。Don't forget to subscribe, share your thoughts, and join Fly with Lily to grow with us.别忘了订阅、留言,还有加入我5月20日即将开展的七日晨光觉醒旅程Seven Days of Morning Awakening,赶快到 flywiithlily.com 下载我们的离开舒适圈中英语挑战手册,如果已经注册过邮箱的朋友很快的你在邮箱里就会接受到邀请!和Lily一起进行华丽变身、成长、冒险!

Songkran is a festival from Southeast Asia marking the new year and celebrating making a fresh start. This special program includes a program discussion hosted by Michelle Meow featuring conversations on cultural heritage, community impact, and empowerment initiatives; cultural performances, including traditional dances, live music, and storytelling sessions; a traditional water blessing ceremony; and delicious authentic Southeast Asian cuisine prepared by local chefs. About the Speakers Kesinee Angkustsiri Yip has been helping companies, organizations, and executives manage their reputations for more than two decades. An award-winning communications strategist recognized by the International Association of Business Communications, she co- founded Creative Catalyst (www.creativecatalystworks.com) to address culture and connection challenges—the things AI does not—by bringing improv into the workplace. While improv can be funny, it's not just for the theater. Improv techniques can help entrepreneurs and leaders as well as customer-facing, sales, HR, and DEI teams reduce anxiety, cultivate safe spaces, and encourage creativity. Her book, “Yes, and...” for Success: Improv Secrets to Supercharge Professional Creativity and Connection is out on Amazon and available at Bay Area bookstores. Kesinee has performed at BATS Improv and has led workshops and trainings in the United States and abroad. Kesinee is on the Board of the Asian Women's Shelter in San Francisco (www.sfaws.org) and is active with the LEAD-LISA Startup Incubator (www.gsb-lead-lisa.com). She earned a BA from Stanford University and an MBA in Marketing and Strategic Planning from Rice University. Maly Phommavong is based in Sacramento and has been in the interpreting field since 2015. In 1987, she arrived in the United States at age 13 as a child of refugees with a family of 12. She graduated with a Master's Degree in Criminology from CSU of Fresno in 2000, and worked as a deputy probation officer for Contra Costa County in 2002. She retired early from the Probation Department in 2015, and began working as a registered court interpreter for the California Judicial Court. Maly has been involved in grass-roots advocacy and volunteered in nonprofit organizations for decades. In 2015, She began her online presence through conducting live community discussions covering various issues affecting the community in the Lao language catering to non-English speaking members. Her videos have reached the Laotian audience worldwide. Kenya Prach is a survivor of the Khmer Rouge genocide who escaped to Thailand refugee camps before finding a second chance in the United States. Arriving with no knowledge of English and few opportunities, Kenya faced immense challenges, from being unable to attend high school or community college to being turned away from work. However, a kind gesture from an African American homeless man helped guide him toward education and a new life. A Cambodian-born martial artist, Kenya is known for his expertise in Kbach-Kun-Boran-Khmer (Bokator) and Muay Thai kickboxing. Despite enduring the horrors of the Khmer Rouge regime, he pursued martial arts in Thailand and later excelled in boxing in the United States. With a deep understanding of hardship and compassion, Kenya has dedicated his life to helping others, particularly in the fight against human trafficking and advocating for human rights. He believes that true wealth lies not in material possessions but in kindness, care and love. Through his work and his book Black Stone Hands, Kenya seeks to give a voice to the voiceless and inspire others to make a difference by uplifting those in need.

With the big holiday nearly here, Greg and Ed reminisce about their various Songkran experiences over the years. Ed notes that last year was a breakthrough year: he actually went out and ‘threw water' for the first time in many years and had a blast. Greg points out that it's pretty common for expats to love Songkran at first, but then quickly switch to avoiding the raucous celebrations for many years. Greg has found special Songkran celebrations specifically designed to be kid-friendly, which has allowed him to keep in touch with the experience without a lot of the craziness.  Ed recounts his very first Songkran experience in Chiang Mai, a pivotal moment in his early years in Thailand as it was an amazingly good time that included three full days of brutal water wars. Ever since then he has been ‘chasing the dragon' of that first experience. Greg then uses AI to do some insightful comparisons between Songkran of 2005 and Songkran of 2025. The AI does a fairly good job of noting the transition of the holiday from being primarily local to being now well-known around the world, and one in which the prior emphasis was on traditional family ritual while today the experience is much more professionalized and commercial. Also check out the photo of a very young Greg at his first Songkran, with his friend Amanda. Oh to be young and wrinkle-free again! Regardles of how it has changed, Songkran remains a defining Thai experience not to be missed by tourists and expats. Just bring a good attitude and prepare to get soaked!

Everything Everywhere Daily History Podcast

Songkran is a traditional festival celebrated in Thailand that marks the start of the Thai New Year. It is also known as the Water Festival, as it involves splashing water on one another as a symbolic gesture of cleansing and washing away the sins and bad luck of the previous year. However, it has since evolved into something much more than a religious observance. It has become the world's biggest water fight.  Learn more about Songkran, the Thai New Year's celebration, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
