Thailand phase of CARAT exercise series underway
By Chief Journalist Melinda Larson
CARAT Task Group public affairs
A combined force of nearly 4,000 U.S. Sailors,
Coastguardsmen, and Royal Thai Armed Forces counterparts are breaking new ground
during the Thailand phase of the Cooperation Afloat Readiness and Training
series, which began here June 30 with a traditional ceremony.
 Commander-in-Chief,
Royal Thai Fleet, Adm. Vichai Yuwanangoon, left; accompanied by Rear Adm. Kevin
Quinn, commander Logistics Group Western Pacific and Task Force 712, center;
speaks with Lt. Miguel Iniguez during an inspection of troops that concluded the
opening ceremony of the Thailand phase of CARAT.
Sixteen ships, along with a variety of aircraft and other
units are taking part in the exercise, the largest bilateral event of the year
between the two navies. This year’s edition, the 10th, contains a number of
CARAT Thailand firsts.
“We have many reasons to be excited about the exercise this
year,” said Rear Adm. Kevin Quinn, commander of Logistics Group Western
Pacific, and in his role as the executive agent for CARAT, commander of Task
Force 712, during the opening ceremony.
“For the first time, two Arleigh Burke class guided missile
destroyers - USS Russell and USS McCampbell - will take part. Along with the
U.S. Coast Guard cutter Mellon, the dock landing ship USS Fort McHenry, and the
rescue and salvage ship USS Salvor, the U.S. task group is the most robust CARAT
group ever and a symbol of commitment, as well as an example of the maturity of
CARAT.”
Other new initiatives that exemplify the growth of the
exercise, Quinn said, are on the communications front. The Portable Allied
Command, Control and Communications Terminal (PAC3T) system will be put to use
during the exercise for the first time and will be installed on board His Thai
Majesty’s Ship Taksin. “This system not only allows the two navies to
communicate securely, but also provides us with a combined operational picture
that can be used by our commanders at sea to maintain situational awareness of
their units and tactical operations,” Quinn said.
Additionally, through demonstrations on board USS McCampbell
(DDG 85), U.S. Navy communications specialists will introduce the Combined
Enterprise Regional Information Exchange (CENTRIX) system. CENTRIX is a global
Internet protocol architecture that allows U.S. forces to share information and
operational planning with allies.
This year, a combined, U.S. Navy, Royal Thai Navy staff will
exercise command and control of the combined task group from on board USS
Russell (DDG 59).
“At sea, the task group will focus on the many exercise
hallmarks of CARAT, which include a full series of basic through advanced events
designed to shape our war fighting skills,” Quinn said. “These standard
events are an important part of the exercise, but we will also be conducting a
variety of other exercise events, many borne of a changing world situation and
as a result of new threats.”
These include visit, board, search and seizure (VBSS)
symposia and practical demonstrations at sea by the crew of the U.S. Coast Guard
cutter Mellon (WHEC 717) with RTN Navy and Coast Guard counterparts, as well as
symposia on legal issues of mutual interest, such as the Law of the Sea,
maritime interdiction operations, and rules of engagement.
Amphibious operations with Royal Thai Marines from the dock
landing ship USS Fort McHenry (LSD 43) are also scheduled, as are diving and
salvage operations with Royal Thai Navy divers from the rescue and salvage ship
USS Salvor (ARS 52). The RTN will put four mine sweepers to sea during the
exercise to hunt for U.S. mines deployed by a P-3C Orion aircraft.
“This year CARAT will not only educate and give experience
to U.S. and Thai forces but it will also be beneficial to local civilians,”
said Rear Adm. Tawewuth Pongsapipatt, commander of the RTN’s Frigate Squadron
Two, during the ceremony.
U.S. Navy Seabees began work in early June on a multi-purpose
building at a school in nearby Rayong province. Construction will be completed
and the facility dedicated during the exercise. Several medical, dental and
veterinary community action projects will also take place, providing free care
for residents in and around the Sattahip area. Likewise, a number of community
service projects by CARAT Task Group Sailors and Coastguardsmen are scheduled.
“We receive so much kindness and friendship here and we are
glad we have an opportunity to make contributions that will benefit the well
being of our Thai friends,” Quinn added.
Nearly 1,400 U.S. Sailors and Coastguardsmen, along with
2,600 Royal Thai Navy and Marine personnel are participating in the exercise.
CARAT is a series of bilateral exercises held annually
throughout Southeast Asia that began in 1995 by combining a number of existing
exercises to be conducted sequentially by a single U.S. Navy task group. CARAT
Thailand is the third of the five phase annual exercise. CARAT Singapore was
conducted May 31-June 11 while CARAT Brunei took place June 21-26. Other phases
this year include the Philippines and Malaysia.
The U.S. CARAT Task Group is under the leadership of Capt.
Buzz Little, commander of Destroyer Squadron One.
RTN ships taking part include His Thai Majesty’s Ships Phuttha Yotfa
Chulalok, Taksin, Rathana Kosin, Surin, Thalang, Bangrachan, Nongsarai, along
with four mine sweepers.
City looks at traffic management with a view for change
Residents vote overwhelmingly in favor of air-con bus service
Suchada
Tupchai
Pattaya’s longstanding traffic woes may soon be over if
the new city administration gets its way. A review of a research project was
presented at a meeting with Prof Dr Thawatchai Laosirihongtong, director of
the traffic research and development department at the King Mongkut
Institute of Technology, and research officers last Thursday morning.
 Prof
Dr Thawatchai Laosirihongtong, director of the traffic research and
development department at the King Mongkut Institute of Technology, points
out the results of the survey from residents to Pattaya City Mayor Niran
Wattanasartsathorn.
Prof Dr Thawatchai revealed that a survey conducted among
passengers showed that 98 percent were satisfied with the air-con bus
service, whereas two percent favored the Songtaew (baht bus) Cooperative.
The positive points concerning the bus service were
politeness of the drivers, its convenience and improving the image of
Pattaya as a tourist city with proper public transport.
“I would suggest that Second Road remain a one-way,
with the inclusion of the air-con bus service on the city’s major routes,
which will ease the city’s public transport problems and begin a new era
for Pattaya,” said Prof Dr Thawatchai.
“I suggest that the bus initially run free of charge to
residents, but we would need to find sponsors to the tune of 500,000 baht
per month to help pay for the service. This was the intention with the
initial trial but due to the Songtaew Cooperative intervening, the contract
was cut short and problems arose,” he added.
Mayor Niran Wattanasartsathorn voiced his personal
opinion on the matter, “I would like to see Second Road return to the
two-way system but with the added bus service along Beach Road as a better
alternative. As for the free service, I would prefer students ride free to
and from their schools. This would create a better scenario for their
parents, knowing that their children would be safe. This would create
confidence in the parents, which is part of our public service policy.”
At 1.30 p.m. administrators called in representatives
from the Songtaew Cooperative to discuss the current three-month trial
period for the songtaews running along the same route as the air-con bus.
Pol Lt Col Somchai Phongsai, Pattaya’s traffic
superintendent, was also present for the discussions.
Suchart Klungsin, deputy chairman of the Pattaya Songtaew
Cooperative Company, addressed the meeting on a number of issues.
“There have been a number of problems during the trial
period. Initially we had no public relations campaign by the city or
research department that the songtaew coop would take over from the bus
service. This created a loss in revenue, and at the same time a number of
drivers have not correctly followed the research directives and the
specified route. The income has now leveled out where drivers are taking
around 1,000 baht per day in fares, which is satisfactory,” said Suchart.
“In the past week there was also an incident where one
vehicle had its windows smashed in, most likely due to someone unhappy with
the service. Some of these drivers (within the research project) are also
operating outside the route because of passenger requests. Whatever the case
may be, we have instructed these drivers to remain on their given route and
pick up and drop off passengers at the bus stops to reduce potential
disputes. Those drivers who fail to obey the directive will be fined,”
added Suchart.
Concluding the meeting, Mayor Niran called for Second
Road to remain a one-way for the moment, with the songtaew drivers
continuing to carry out their regular services but within the specific
guidelines set down in the research project. They should also improve their
behavior for the benefit of Pattaya.
“Both the city administration and the traffic research and development
department will continue to study the results of the trial and in
conjunction with the policies laid out by the department of transport will
form a definite plan to develop Pattaya’s public transport system and
resolve traffic problems,” concluded the mayor.
Chonburi slated for industrial export hub
Governor lectures government inspectors
Ariyawat Nuamsawat
One hundred and forty new government inspectors attended
a training seminar at the Adriatic Hotel in Pattaya on June 28. Chonburi
Governor Pisit Ketphasook presided over the opening of the seminar and
revealed the government’s aim at making Chonburi an economic hub for the
nation’s export industry.
 Pisit
Ketphasook, Chonburi governor gave a special lecture at the training
seminar.
The seminar was conducted by the secretarial office to
the prime minister as part of the government’s policy on further
developing efficiency with government offices to benefit the nation and it
residents.
The new inspectors were also given the opportunity to
speak with those already experienced in the position, in order to gain
further insight into their duties, which entail developing and inspecting
procedures and ensuring transparency within the government sector with
greater accountability.
Governor Pisit told the group in a special talk that the
government is intent on further developing the region as the center for
agricultural and industrial exports by facilitating a greater output through
the Laem Chabang port. The port is the largest in the country and is a vital
link in creating further investment in the region.

The business of making people beautiful makes big baht
Government teaches beauticians how to run their businesses better
Suchada Tupchai
People want to look great, as can be gauged from the fact
that the beauty business made over 6 billion baht last year.
Now the government wants to help make sure that
beauticians in the area have a better understanding of the business
processes involved.
 Chonburi
Vice-Governor Weerawit Wiwattanawanit
To this end, Chonburi Vice-Governor Weerawit
Wiwattanawanit last week opened a “Beauty Business Strength
Enhancement” seminar at the Ambassador City Jomtien Hotel. It was
attended by beauty business operators nationwide.
Somchart Soythong, director of the Ministry of
Commerce’s Business Development Bureau said, “The beauty business made
over 6 billion baht last year and has the potential to grow dramatically.
“Today we are in a global free-trade market where
investors from different countries are aiming at investing their money in a
new country that has an increasing amount of interest in the beauty
business.”
He said Thailand was one of their best choices. “Our
economy is booming and people tend to spend more money on body beauty
services.”
Somchart said the seminar’s main objective was to
educate beauty business operators in bookkeeping, accounting, money
management, marketing, learning a foreign language, business administration
and service provision.
Weerawit said international tourists visit Thailand in
large numbers every year. He said Chonburi has a lot to offer them.
“Beauty complexes are among the most sought-after
places that tourists will visit, especially the well-off ones.”
He said Thailand’s barbers and hairdressers were no
less skilled than those in any other country in the world. “The only
thing that worries me is how they manage their business. We can
successfully capture the international market if we do it properly.”
The vice-governor said Chonburi was chosen by the
Ministry of Commerce to be the focal point of the provincial beauty
business development and hoped that this seminar would initiate new ideas
and generate more proficient beauty business operators for Thailand in the
near future.
Weerawit concluded by saying that, with the support of the Ministry of
Trade, Chonburi province could produce world-class hairdressers and beauty
business entrepreneurs to meet the growing demand of the beauty business
investors.
Pattaya marks World Anti-Drug Day
Free concert raises awareness of drug abuse
Decha
Chalermyart
City fathers used music as their medium this year to
promote the anti-drug message on World Anti-Drug Day.
Wuthisak Rermkitchakarn, on of Pattaya’s deputy mayors,
presided over the opening of an Anti-Drug concert to mark the day, this year
held on June 26 at the public grounds next to city hall.
 Popular
singer Ajariya Busaba entertained spectators with country songs and dances,
promoting the anti-drug message.
The well attended concert was held to raise awareness of
drugs and encourage people to stay away from them. Pattaya joined the rest
of the world to bring about awareness of drug abuse to the people.
The deputy mayor said it is the duty of all to monitor
and report names of drug dealers and users to the governmental officials, as
well as inform them of places where drugs are being used or sold. He said
people can write a letter revealing what they have seen about misconduct in
their community to P.O. Box 1234 and the national drug and crime office will
try to solve the problem for them.
Wuthisak urged parents to teach their children to be good
citizens and do good things. He said good deeds must be generated and taught
to the kids in the family to produce a strong and peaceful society.
On the night, popular singers Aphaporn Nakornsawan, and Ajariya Busaba
entertained spectators with country songs and dances. Eddie the Ghost and
his comedy gang glued the audience to their seats with their hilarious stage
performance. The concert ended at midnight, but hopefully the message of
warning to youngsters did not.
City seeks to reduce biting dogs by educating dog owners
Two-day seminar addresses responsibly for pets
Suchada Tupchai
Rabies among the canine species in Thailand is at a
frightening level despite continued efforts to reduce the disease. With
Pattaya carrying out annual vaccinations throughout the city,
administrators are taking up the issue with dog owners in an effort to
reduce incidents of dog bites.
Last week a small group of dog owners attended a seminar
at the city health center. Apichart Puechphan, acting city secretary
addressed the dog owners.
 Dog
lovers learned how to better care for their pets last week during a seminar
at the city health center.
“Rabies in Thailand is an important issue and despite
efforts to wipe out the disease there are still a large number of deaths
associated with dog bites. The government currently spends 900 million baht
annually on vaccinations and with a million people suffering from dog bites
each year we must reduce these statistics.
“The problem is that the number of dogs in the country
is increasing each year - most of them are strays - which is creating a
problem for society. Pattaya is now taking the issue up with dog owners to
avoid them letting their pets run wild or dumping them on the streets and
thereby causing further problems,” said Apichart.
With more people coming to Pattaya and Banglamung, there
is also an increase in the population of dog owners. In a bold effort from
local administration and veterinarian colleges, there is a movement to
confront those who would neglect man’s best friend and set him loose on
the streets.
During the two day seminar attendees were instructed on
variety of subjects on how to care for their pets as well as behavioral
patterns, training and health related issues.
The next course was due to be held on July 8 and 9 in the Huay
sub-district.
Police briefs

Police raid gambling den and
underground lottery dealer
Even with the government’s crackdown on illegal gambling
and “dark influences”, some still refuse to give in. Such was the case
when Pattaya police raided two residences, where they found a football
gambling den and an underground lottery dealer.
The first raid took place in Moo 9, where criminal
investigation officers, armed with an arrest warrant, detained Kriatsak Narsri
at his home. Kriatsak was charged with running a gambling den for the Euro
2004 football championship. Police officers confiscated game results, a fax
machine, 8,200 baht in cash and betting tickets.
The second raid took place in Soi BJ, South Pattaya, with
police arresting Jamlong Jumparthong, 42, for running an underground lottery
operation. Evidence confiscated in the raid included 188,400 baht in cash,
several calculators, a fax machine, five bankbooks, a nine-page-long list of
his customers and other incriminating evidence used in running an underground
lottery scheme.
Jamlong admitted to his money-making scam and was charged
with running an illegal gambling operation, more or less in direct competition
to the government.
Security guard dies of
exhaustion
Long hours, lack of proper rest and caffeine were cited as
the possible cause of death of a 30-year-old security guard at the Thanyawan
Village on Thappraya Road at around 8.30 p.m. on June 29.
Police were called in to investigate the mysterious death
of the man after Chumnarn Parnthep; security supervisor for the Duangporndee
Co. Ltd., was making his rounds when he made the discovery.
Chumnarn, also a former police officer, told investigating
police that he responded to a call that one his subordinates was sleeping on
the job. He arrived at the village and found Vichai Potikhum sitting slumped
in the chair inside the guards’ office. When he attempted wake him he
discovered that the young guard had blatantly ignored the “no dieing on the
job” sign posted nearby.
Police attending the scene examined the body and
surroundings, but found no sign of foul play. An empty can of ice coffee and
energy drink bottle, also empty, were discovered nearby the deceased.
Vichai’s body was sent to the forensic institute for an
autopsy to reveal the cause of death. However, investigating police surmise
that lack of sleep and increased levels of caffeine may have sent the man into
shock and he died as a result.
City council member’s sons
stabbed
Pattaya police received a call from Sanit Boonmachai, a
Pattaya City council member, who reported an attack on his two sons, Narongrit
Boonmachai, age 24 and Surasak Boonmachai, age 31. Sanit told police that his
younger son suffered only a minor cut in the back but the elder son was rushed
to Banglamung Hospital for treatment to a deep knife wound in his chest.
Narongrit told police on the night of the attack, Surasak,
his elder brother, had an argument with his girlfriend near their house. He
said during the spat his brother noticed a group of young men drive by and
look at him. Narongrit said his brother frustratingly told them to mind their
own business.
The pack of young men didn’t heed the advice and followed
his brother home. Narongrit said the unwelcome arrivals parked their
motorbikes in front of the house and provoked a confrontation. Narongrit said
the provocation aggravated them, so they decided to follow the group to the
entrance of Soi 555 on Pattaya-Naklua Road to seek an apology from the men. He
said the talks became hopeless, the scene became emotional, and both sides
started to rumble.
Surasak was later transferred to Chonburi Hospital. Not
long after the interrogation, police rounded up two of the four men,
Phanomkorn Mahingsa, 18, and his brother Suchitti Mahingsa, 25, from
Suphanburi province. Police were looking for rest of the gang members.
Roving porn vendor arrested with over 500 VCDs in hand
Told police he sold them to entertainment venues
Boonlua Chatree
Hot on the trail of those who would distort Thai
values, Pattaya criminal investigation police arrested a 44-year-old
man for offering lascivious movies out of the back of his pick-up
truck.
 Sakon
Jaroenratdech was arrested for selling porn videos to undercover
cops.
Police set a sting operation, with undercover
officers purchasing two pornographic VCDs from Sakon Jaroenratdech in
the car park of a large disco in South Pattaya at 8.30 p.m. on July
1.
Once the transaction was complete, officers
revealed their true identity and arrested the man, and confiscated
510 movie titles.
Sakon was charged with selling pornographic material after he
admitted to his entrepreneurial activities. He said he buys the VCDs
in Bangkok and sells them near many of the city’s entertainment
venues.
German national arrested for alleged pedophilia
Previously arrested for operating bar without license
Boonlua Chatree
A German national was arrested shortly before 1 a.m. on
July 1 in South Pattaya for alleged sexual relations with two 9-year-old
girls. The girls were forced into selling themselves by their Thai minders.
 Peter
Kuttner was arrested in Soi VC for allegedly sexually abusing two girls
under 15 years old.
The information came to light following the arrest of
nine people on June 17 for forcing the children to sell flowers in
Pattaya’s beer bars.
Police moved in to arrest Peter Kuttner, 49, at his place
of business located in Soi VC, South Pattaya. He was not at work, but
officers quickly located him drinking in a bar down the street. He denied
the allegations as police escorted him to Soi 9 for further questioning.
Police subsequently arrested Kanchana Pekkasut, 53, at a
computer games shop in the same area.
The German was charged with sexual assault of children
under 15 while Kanchana was charged with procuring the girls to commit the
acts.
Kuttner arrived in the kingdom two years ago. He was previously arrested
for owning and operating the Triple Bar in Sunee Plaza without a license and
was out on bail awaiting court proceedings.
Child prostitution crackdown by police and Social Welfare nets 60
Sunee Plaza once again under the spotlight
Boonlua
Chatree
A joint operation between local police and the Department
of Social Development and Welfare led to the detention of 60 young men under
the age of 18 in the notorious Sunee Plaza area in South Pattaya shortly
after midnight on July 1.
Local
police and social workers rounded up 60 young men under the age of 18 in the
notorious Sunee Plaza area in South Pattaya
Police units and volunteers rounded up the children after
receiving numerous complaints calling for officials to stop the problem of
child prostitution in the area. Many of their ‘customers’ are
foreigners.
The boys under 18 will be sent to the Eastern Child
Welfare and Protection Institute in Huay Pong, Rayong. Most of the boys were
reportedly wandering around outside the bars where they often solicited
customers. Since they were not inside in any particular premises, police
were unable to detain bar owners for allowing the activities to take place.
Officials questioned a number of young men 18 and over and took down
their personal details for reference before releasing them on their own
accord with a stern warning to “stay clean.”
Man arrested for beating wife to death
Admits to being heavy-handed
Boonlua Chatree
The ugly reality of domestic violence reared its head in
Pattaya when local police officers were called in to arrest Prayoon
Narmwongsa, 46, on June 29 for causing the death of his wife. Boonpeng
Boonson, 40, died after Prayoon repeatedly punched and kicked her, causing a
blood vessel to burst in the woman’s brain.
After the woman’s brother called the police, officers
found Prayoon asleep at the family house in Soi Jirapon, off Soi Bua Jaho,
where the murder took place.
Prayoon admitted that he was a little heavy handed with
his wife and claimed that she verbally abused him after a hard day’s work
on a construction site. He added that he struck out at his wife in a fit of
rage following her lambasting.
Doctors at Banglamung Hospital later told police that the
woman’s body had numerous bruises from the beating and that a blood vessel
had burst as a result.
Prayoon was charged and remanded into custody for
grievous bodily harm causing death.
Bangkok subway now open
Bangkok’s newest mass transit system, the subway, opened
on July 3, one month ahead of schedule. His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej
graciously presided at the formal opening ceremony at the main Bangkok
railway station, Hua Lamphong, on July 3.
The first 99,999 commuters will also receive souvenirs.
From the opening date, until August 12, the royal birthday of Her Majesty
Queen Sirikit, commuters will be allowed to use the subway at a special low
rate of 10 baht for all routes. All the revenue from the fare during that
period will be donated to Royal charities and foundations under the
patronage of Their Majesties the King and Queen.
From August 13, 2004 to July 3, 2005, the fare will rise
to the 15% discounted rate of 12 - 31 baht, depending on the distance
traveled, and rise to the normal rate of 14 - 36 baht thereafter.
The subway will run from the city’s main railway
station, Hua Lamphong, under two major thoroughfares, Rama 4 Road and
Ratchadaphisek Road.
All the subway stations are air-conditioned and well
equipped with elevators, escalators, shops, ATM machines, public telephone
kiosks and ticket vending machines which accept both notes and coins as well
as return change.
Special park-and-ride facilities have been established to
help reduce traffic congestion. The Lad Phrao Station has a parking building
for 2,000 cars while the Thailand Cultural Center Station provides a
building of up to 200 cars. Parking is being provided for subway passengers
at a nominal rate.
The MRTA has also cooperated with the Bangkok Mass
Transit Authority (BMTA), operator of the city bus service, to link seven
subway stations with 18 bus lines for commuters who live in the suburbs and
do not always wish to take their cars.
Safety has been a primary consideration in the
construction of the subway. In addition to security guards, the highest
international standards have been used for the design of accident prevention
and evacuation systems. It is well equipped with fire alarms, fire-fighting
systems, ventilation fans and emergency escapes.
The MRTA also plans to expand Bangkok’s other mass
transit system, the Skytrain, which opened in December 1999.
By the year 2010, the Thai government plans to expand the
two mass transit systems to cover a total of 291 km, linking all parts of
the city. A budget of 446.6 billion baht has been approved for the
route-expansion projects.
The BMT will operate its 18 bus lines in seven stations
which include:
Kamphaeng Phet Station:
Line 77 (to Sathupradit Depot)
Line 136 (to Sathupradit Depot)
Line 536 (to Pak Nam [expressway])
