FOREIGN COUPLE FOUND DEAD IN THAILAND, SUSPECTED IT IS RELATED TO A CULT

0

According to Thai media reports, recently, the police station in Panna District, Annan Chanang Province, Thailand received a report that a foreign couple was found dead in a house in the local Mai Klon area. Subsequently, the police immediately coordinated forensics and rescue personnel to rush to the scene for investigation.

The incident occurred in a two-story house close to the road. The police used the landlord’s spare key to unlock the door. After entering the house, they found a woman lying on the bed with large blood stains. She was about 40 years old and a Moldovan citizen (a European country). She was lying beside the bed. A male deceased, about 47 years old and a Swiss national, was found. No signs of a fight or theft were found at the scene.

Careful inspection revealed that there were 1 wound on the left and right sides of the woman’s neck and on both arms, and the wounds on the male deceased were in the same condition. There was a blood-stained fruit knife on the ground near the woman’s right foot. In addition, the police also found another fruit knife stained with blood in the sink, and a dead dog in front of the bathroom. The police brought the above items back for investigation and took the two deceased people to the hospital for autopsy.

According to neighbors, the man among the two people mentioned above was seen on October 13. He returned home after going shopping and has not been seen since. Usually the couple would sit in front of the house and smoke every evening, but that night it was very quiet, and there were no lights in the house. At around 20 o’clock in the evening, they heard the sound of a suspected person falling in their bedroom, because the two bedrooms were close to each other. Very close. It wasn’t until his Thai friends came to look for them the next day that they discovered that the two people were dead.

According to their Thai friend, the two deceased were married and knew her Swiss husband. The two were once rich, but are now bankrupt. Because they have expertise in cannabis oil production, they were invited by their husbands to come to Thailand to help. It has been five months now. Although their finances has not been reveal, all aspects of life are taken care of and chats are held every day. Until the night of the incident, she received a message of thanks from the other party, but she did not receive a reply after asking.

At present, the police have initially judged it to be suicide, but have not ruled out other possibilities and need to wait for specific autopsy results. In addition, the police also found two mysterious images that resembled some kind of demon, witch or a cult organization in the bedroom of the deceased. In any case, the case is still under further investigation.

SMRT TRAINS CHARGED FOR DEATH OF STAFF WORKING @ BISHAN DEPOT, KILLED BY ROD THAT FLEW OUT

0

In a shocking turn of events, SMRT Trains, one of Singapore’s prominent rail operators, finds itself facing legal repercussions for a devastating workplace incident.

They were charged on 17 October with one count of failing to take measures to ensure the safety of their workers at a depot, according to The Straits Times.

The incident, which took place at the Bishan Depot in March 2020, resulted in the tragic death of a technical officer, 30-year-old Muhammad Afiq Senawi, who suffered severe injuries while on duty.

A Tragic Day at Bishan Depot

On March 23, 2020, Muhammad Afiq Senawi was operating a hydraulic press machine, a powerful industrial tool, at the Bishan Depot.

Tragically, during the operation, a spacer rod was forcefully ejected from the machine, breaking through safety fencing and striking him in the face.

The consequences of this incident were fatal, and Mr. Senawi was rushed to Tan Tock Seng Hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries and died that morning.

Safety Measures in Question

During a coroner’s inquiry in 2021, alarming details emerged regarding safety measures at the depot. The court heard that SMRT Trains allegedly failed to implement several critical safety measures:

  1. Pressure Gauge Installation: It was alleged that SMRT Trains did not install a pressure gauge for the hydraulic press machine after it was dismantled for repair.
  2. Hazardous Zone Demarcation: The rail operator was accused of failing to demarcate a hazardous zone, which would keep operators at a safe distance from the machine during its operation.
  3. Pressure Valve Limitations: The company purportedly did not limit the maximum operating pressure of the machine using pressure valves.
  4. Inadequate Guarding: SMRT Trains allegedly did not ensure adequate guarding for the machine to withstand the force exerted by a workpiece shooting out during operation.
  5. Interlocking Workpieces: It was also claimed that the firm did not ensure that workpieces used with the hydraulic press machine were engaged and interlocked to prevent displacement during operation.

Previous conviction

This is not the first time SMRT Trains has faced legal consequences for safety lapses. On February 28, 2017, the rail operator was convicted following an incident that resulted in the death of two individuals.

In this case, two trainee employees, part of a 15-member team checking on a fault related to switching equipment on the MRT tracks, were struck by a train near Pasir Ris MRT station.

The company was fined $400,000 for this tragic incident.

Legal Ramifications

The current charges against SMRT Trains carry significant weight. If found guilty, the rail operator can face fines of up to $1 million. The case has been adjourned to November 30.

This tragic incident at the Bishan Depot serves as a somber reminder of the paramount importance of ensuring safety in the workplace. Employers must uphold the highest standards of safety measures to protect their employees from harm.

A netizen managed to film a group of man sorting out a bunch of goods for delivery.

However, they were seen throwing the items around and do not care if the items break.

Here is what the netizen said:

Not sure which company. But staff appointed to deliver our items simply throw around our parcel. No wonder items received damaged/ broken. I haven been noticing this almost on a daily basis. Happens 8-10am.

@ahbengloh89

This is why your items break.

Here are what netizens think:

  • they are sorting the parcels out accordingly by blocks. (not saying tht im ok of them throwing it around) but sometimes too overwhelm and thus such things happen.
  • Not nice to do throwing around. However need to consider that the sorting is unpaid time for the courier to do delivery. Although gig delivery, but really pay peanuts for the time spent packing and delivery time. Perhaps courier company can made effort to have an auto labelling for parcels that is visually easy for courier to see, plan his route and sorting. However consumers need to pay more. Can’t be paying peanuts but expect quality
  • If that is the case, we should not be asking refund for damage items. As we know how is their handling process
  • Quite normal for them to sort out before deliver . It will take hours to sort then if slowly place them on the ground
  • Whether or not contractor, this is general common sense as not to throw parcel
  • bro every where in the world same .u want fast they deliver fast ,I’m very sure when it started fragile they won’t throw. Been done that unless it paste or indicatr fragile we will handle with care other than that. U need b fast I have thousands parcel daily eh .u expect them work sort out nicely one by one until 12aM also won’t finish

NEIGHBOUR FROM HELL USE GUANDAO WEAPON TO CHASE AND THREATENS

A neighbor from hell, armed with a Guandao weapon, unleashed chaos and fear among the residents. While the location remains uncertain, netizens have been quick to speculate about the incident. Yishun, often associated with unusual occurrences and residents labeled as having “mental disorders,” has found itself in the midst of this bewildering episode.

The Guandao Weapon: What is it?

To understand the gravity of the situation, it’s essential to first grasp what a Guandao is. The Guandao is a traditional Chinese pole weapon with a blade attached at one end, known for its formidable reach and cutting power. It has roots in ancient Chinese martial arts and was used historically by warriors and generals.

The Incident Unfolds

The incident in question unfolded in a manner that can only be described as bizarre. Eyewitnesses reported that the neighbor, seemingly in a fit of rage, brandished the Guandao and chased an individual through the neighborhood. The motives behind this aggressive act remain a mystery.

In Singapore, the act of brandishing a weapon is a serious offense that is governed by strict laws and regulations. The possession or display of weapons in a public place is heavily regulated to maintain public safety and order. Here’s an overview of how Singaporean law addresses the brandishing of weapons:

  1. Definition of Weapons: Singaporean law defines weapons broadly and includes items such as firearms, knives, swords, or any other objects that can be used to cause harm or pose a threat to others.
  2. Possession of Weapons: The possession of certain weapons in Singapore without a valid license is illegal. Firearms and certain types of knives, for example, are strictly regulated and require licenses for ownership.
  3. Carrying in Public: Carrying a weapon openly in a public place without a lawful purpose is considered an offense. This includes brandishing, displaying, or carrying a weapon in a threatening or dangerous manner. Even if one possesses a weapon legally, it should not be displayed or carried in a way that causes alarm or poses a threat.
  4. Penalties: The penalties for brandishing a weapon or carrying one unlawfully can be severe. Individuals found guilty of these offenses may face imprisonment, fines, or both, depending on the severity of the offense and the type of weapon involved.

GIRL “USED TO BEING CHASED”, MEETS GUY DOESN’T CHASE HER, EGO HURT

Hi Just need some dating advice and maybe the opinion of sg men

I am a 25 F who had been focused on academics + career for all her life. Now just trying to get into the dating scene. Not having much luck in the workplace and so I have turned to dating apps. I am used to being chased, but things never go past the 3rd date where I lose interest or I notice something that maybe wouldn’t work if we get into a relationship.

Anyway, this time, I matched with a guy, like a 30 year old, with a work schedule almost as busy as mine. We text daily leading up to our first meeting and I thought we had a quite good time. (Nothing amazing, but it wasn’t horrible).

And for the first time, I arrived home with no “let’s do this again next time” text, which is a new experience for me. Because I wanted to meet again, I sent a “see u again soon? ” text and he replied with “sure haha”, which I tried not to read too much into.

After that, we continue to text somewhat daily. There are days I get too busy to return a text, and other days he’d do the same, but there was still continuation of conversations, initiation of new ones on both parts. But what bugs me is that there is no initiation of another date…

I tried to hint, saying that I have taken leave from work some time next week and all he said was “it is good, you do need to rest sometimes”.  I am pretty straightforward usually and wouldn’t mind initiating another date, but I can’t help but feel like maybe I needed to read the room?

I have discussed this with friends and their advice to me varies: from ask him out, maybe he didn’t want to seem desperate? To maybe he isn’t that interested, don’t waste your time. I have to admit, at this point, I am clueless myself if I am attracted to him or just bothered because he bruised my ego.

This has never happened to me before and I wonder if I am getting the taste of my own medicine. He is an attractive person himself, and so maybe I have met my match (pun intended).

Some insight into a sg guy’s mind would be nice. Maybe I am a boring date? Am I just being left as an option to him? Thanks in advance!

HUSBAND WANTS WIFE TO SLEEP WITH ANOTHER WOMAN, SHE FELL IN LOVE WITH HER

0

My husband wanted to watch me to sleep with another woman and I fell in love with her.

My husband Mark and I have been married for almost 4 years now and we dated for over a year before that. I loved Mark. Initially, our intimate life was pretty tame – nothing more than a few different positions and I was okay with that.

During the pandemic lockdowns, Mark wanted to try new things and I was open to that idea. We ordered some toys and started watching adult videos together to spice things up.

One day, he put on a woman-woman movie and I told him that I had a relationship with a woman back in school. It wasn’t very long but it was great.

Mark got obsessed with woman-woman stuff after that. He kept playing related movies and kept asking for details about my relationship with that woman from back in the day. Eventually he told me that he wanted to see me sleep with another woman.

I told him that I didn’t do one-night stands and that I had to get to know the other person. I think my husband was so obsessed with the idea that he agreed without thinking. Mark was okay with me being in a relationship with another woman as long as he got to see us in action. That was when I started losing respect for him.

My gym trainer Sarah was single, so I started talking to her. She was a great person and after a few weeks, I told her about the arrangement with my husband. She was skeptical at first but agreed as long as she got a few private nights with me. I told Mark about this and was hoping would put a stop to it, but he didn’t.

Things slowly spiraled out after that. I started spending a lot of time with Sara. She was a great person and an excellent friend. She introduced me to her friend circle and it was great. Mark knew about all this but didn’t seem to care as long as he got to see us doing it on some nights. At one point, Sara even warned Mark that he was losing me when she thought I was sleeping. This went on for months and recently, I realized that I didn’t love Mark anymore. Sara also started hinting that she wanted a full relationship with me and I think I love her. I definitely want to explore our relationship more.

I’m getting things in order to file for a divorce. I hate that I have to do this but Mark pushed me away with his actions. I warned him that this might happen, but he was so obsessed with his tendencies that he didn’t care. I loved Mark, and I’s so sad and angry with him as I write this.

GUY BUYS INSURANCE PLAN CAUSE THE AGENT WAS A CHIO BU

0

A guy shared a story about how he was approached by a chiobu insurance agent to buy insurance, and he ended up buying 3 plans because he found it hard to say no to her.

Here is the story:

“I have a problem, I turn into a r*tard when I meet beautiful women.

I am always being approached by insurance agents when I walk past mrt stations and whatnot but I always had no problem saying no.

Because they were all guys.

But then recently a chiobu insurance agent wearing damn tight and short skirt and a low cut blouse approached me and asked if I had 5 mins to spare her.

I thought to myself, 5 mins? I give you 5 hours ah.

I mean she was wearing a mask ah so I could only see half her face but her eyes disappeared when she smiles and I got sot a bit.

Then when we sat down at starbucks and she took off her mask to take a sip from her coffee, i finally saw her face.

Wah she really fking chio until i don’t know how to english.

I don’t know what happened but i ended up buying 3 insurance plans.

i bought a life insurance plan, health insurance plan and some savings plan that I have no idea about.

Do you think she will say yes if I ask her out?

COUPLE TOGETHER FOR YEARS, TRAVELLED THE WORLD TOGETHER BUT STILL DIVORCE

0

I tried so hard, and failed

Everytime when i look at influencers’ social media, they always seem happy and with their partners, doing fun stuff, teasing each other etc. And, i start to reflect on my life, why am i not happy with my partner? And i the cause of it?

Yes, i am. My partner tells me that all the time.

We used to do all the fun stuff together, you know. We joked around, we tease each other, we enjoyed travelling to many countries together (21 countries to be exact – lovers’ lock at 5 countries, message bottles buried under the trees in 2 countries, getting matching tattoos in 2 countries and PWS back to the first country we visited). I tried so hard to tell myself that we are meant to be. I fought against all odds, even when my parents were against you, to be with you. I am tired of trying all the time, only to be blamed for all your unhappiness. Goodbye my love, i will sign the papers.

Here are what netizens think:

  • Pls don’t follow others , everyone have different life dear , everyone have a story behind close doors, why people don’t compare who’s coffin is beautiful and luxury? Life is prescious, don’t compare dear , those unfortunate people like handicap and illness ones how ? We are more lucky than them right . Relationship thing nobody can predict, today I can say I love you, few months later or few years can be enermy right.
  • I sympathise with your impending divorce if that’s what you meant. But looking at influencers and thinking they are the gold standard for a perfect life? Eh bro or sis, you need some real nirvana.
  • If you want actual real like stories, go to Reddit and read the AITA channel. You’ll have an idea how everyone suffers the same, just differently. Don’t buy into the social media bs.
  • You choose what you want to post to social media. Influencer’s typically shows only the happy fun side. But we will never know what happens behind the scene. In front of camera is usually fake. So, yeah, don’t compare your life to influencer’s. Happiness comes from within and I hope you’ll be happy after this, whatever choice you’ll make.
  • never heard of the Chinese saying 人比人气死人? A person can never be happy if his or her definition of happiness is based upon comparison with others, be it family friends and in your saddest case of all, social media influencers

MAN EARNS 2.5X MORE MONEY THAN WIFE, WHO IS JEALOUS OF HIM

0

Both my partner and I are in the same field of work. We both make great money and have good careers. I left my last job a year ago to refocus and decompress. A friend of mine offered me a job with the company he is joining. This job has stupid high pay. Last year while I wasn’t working she was making a lot. She recently just took a pay cut to reduce her workload.

If I take this job I’ll basically be making 2.5x her salary. She flat out told me she was angry and jealous, but not in the funny ha-ha way. She was very angry, almost crying. She’s always been slightly competitive, but I try not to be. I expected a celebration, or at least a congrats.

I have ideas of what’s upsetting her, but I don’t want to jump to conclusions. Is this common with couples? I’m just giving her space for now, but I was hoping for her to be happy about it.

I really did not expect her to respond this way and I thought that she will be delighted as we can eventually buy a better car or some gift or even a holiday for her to actually relax and be happy.

Oh well seems like money is not important, she has more pride than a man.

We’ve been together 10ish years. This was new for me.

I seek advice from a female friend and she said:

“From a women’s perspective. Her reaction was over the top and completely unacceptable. Yet let’s treat her and praise her for it. If GF doesn’t apologize and express regret for her reaction, he really needs to reevaluate his relationship not reward her. Give her a few days and see how she behaves after she calms down. Her reaction even with stress is not understandable. There are some people out there who are only happy if they feel you are below them or are doing better than you. “

GIRL DUMPED BY BOYFRIEND BECAUSE SHE BOUGHT AN ADULT TOY FOR HERSELF

Boyfriend broke up with me over vibrator

Lately our intimacy hasn’t been the best. We (me F 25, him M 36) haven’t really been active the last few weeks which isn’t typical for us.

We’ve been together for 2 years. He’s been stressed out from work, and it’s been an unfortunate time of the month for me.

Every time I’ve tried to get off manually, it’s impossible because either he interrupts me right as i’m close and I can’t get back in the mood, or our toddler is running around on a rampage.

Today, I decided to go purchase a self pleasure toy. I told him when he got home from work, and he told me I was selfish, and that he was done.

Went on about how he’s sorry he can’t satisfy me and that I should go marry my toy instead. that I’ve used 1 time.

I honestly thought it was harmless, but now I’m feeling a little ashamed for pleasuring myself. I figured it was a better alternative that getting it somewhere else?

Is it not normal in a long term relationship to masturbate? I’m really questioning my decision and feeling regret.
