Da en rejse til Thailand var som en tur til månen

I dag rejser enhver og hans nabo til Thailand. Men for 100 år siden var det at rejse fra Ebeltoft til Siam, det gamle Thailand, næsten som at rejse til månen!

Drøm dig i et foredrag på Kulturloft i Ebeltoft tilbage til en tid før world wide web og billige flyrejser og hør fortællingen om en lokal eventyrer, der med udlængsel og eventyrlyst i blodet vendte de trygge rammer i lille Danmark ryggen.
Det er arkivar på Ebeltoft Arkiv, Martin Mauritzen og kulturformidler Marianne Trier Josefsen fra Syddjurs Bibliotek der har samlet de bedste historier om Rasmus Havmøllers lange rejse, udfordringer og oplevelser. Der serveres kaffe, te og et lille glas gin, og der er entré.

Foredrag: Fra Thailand til Djursland – med Havmøller i det gamle Siam, tirsdag den 24. februar 2026 kl. 19 - 21.
Sted: Kulturloft, Maltvej 12, 8400 Ebeltoft.
Billet 85 kr. Der serveres kaffe, te og et lille glas gin. Baren på Kulturloft desuden åben.

En abe hyler inde i det tætte skovbryn. Hundredvis af fugle skræpper og pipper eksotiske melodier, imens tusindvis af cikader og andre insekter lægger lyd til dagens arbejde i Siams jungle. Det er tidlig morgen, og sveden pibler allerede ned ad ryggen på skovfoged Rasmus Havmøller. Han er ved at gøre sig klar til dagens arbejde dybt inde i Siams jungler, hvor han og arbejdselefanterne skal hente eksotisk træ fra skoven, føre det ned til floden og videre til savværket.

”Med sin udrejse til Thailand i 1914, trodsede Havmøllers tidens normer og søgte det eksotiske eventyr mange tusinde kilometers sørejse fra Danmark. Hans mange år med ØK bød dog på en del udfordringer for den unge eventyrer. Som det er med eventyr, så rummer rejser ofte også både godt og mindre godt,” forklarer arkivar Martin Mauritzen.
Higede efter eventyr

Fortællingen om Rasmus Havmøller, ØK og det gamle Thailand er en rejse i Rasmus Havmøllers fodspor.

”Selvom vi ikke selv skal trave gennem Siams jungler, så er historien ikke mindre spændende af den grund,” forsikrer kulturformidler Marianne Trier.

Foredraget lægger sig op ad Syddjurs Biblioteks aktuelle tema ”Østen er det nye Vesten.”

”Forestillingerne om det eventyrlige Østen og kongeriget Siam, spiller nemlig godt op ad historien om Rasmus Havmøller. Også mange andre unge danske mænd, higede for 100 år siden efter eventyr, rejste ud og bragte senere ny forestillinger og historier om Østen med sig hjem til Danmark,” forklarer kulturformidleren.

Ikke altid let at arbejde for ØK

Havmøller var en af mange danske unge mænd, som havde fået arbejde ved ØK, Det Østasiatiske Kompagni, i Siam. Her skulle han som skovfoged ind i junglen på jagt efter det grønne guld, eksotisk træ, hvoraf den mest eftertragtede var træsorten teak. På trods af at livet i Siam på mange måde var et eventyr for den unge østjyde, så var tjenesten i ØK og livet i det asiatiske land ikke altid nemt.

”De seneste par år har vi på Museum Østjylland lært en masse nyt om Rasmus Havmøller og hans forhold til Ø.K., der i sidste ende viste sig at være problematisk,” afslører arkivaren, der fortæller hele den historie til foredraget den 24. februar.

Rasmus Havmøllers liv i Siam var dog meget mere end jagten efter eksotisk træ. I næsten 30 år arbejdede han med alt fra skovarbejde og tinmine-industri til salg af cement. Havmøller var også en dygtig og passioneret jæger, og ikke mindst var han et familiemenneske. Han fandt kærligheden i Siam og giftede sig med den lokale kvinde Boon Sri, som han senere flyttede tilbage til Ebeltoft sammen med.

Cambodian Prime Minister claims Thai troops are deep in Cambodian territory | DW News

Thai forces are occupying Cambodian territory, according to Cambodia's Prime Minister Hun Manet. Speaking in Washington, at a meeting of US President Donald Trump's Board of Peace, Manet described the situation as "fragile" despite the December ceasefire and a peace accord brokered by President Trump.
Thailand says it is maintaining troop positions along the border as part of de-escalation measures, but it denies occupying Cambodian territory. The comments from both sides underscore the risk that the border conflict could flare up again. Can Cambodia sway Donald Trump to pressure Thailand in its ongoing border dispute?

Local action protects vulnerable parrots in Nonthaburi, Pathum Thani

A vulnerable species known as the Alexandrine parakeet has become surprisingly abundant in Nonthaburi and nearby Pathum Thani, thanks in part to grassroots conservation led by a local gas-strut specialist who began installing artificial nests around a Buddhist temple.

Despite growing community support, the birds face threats from escaped pet parrots, loss of old nesting trees and shrinking green spaces, prompting calls to protect urban trees and habitat so the species can persist.

Rising fuel costs, stagnant rice prices push farmers to brink



Surapol Suksupaet, an 82 year old rice farmer in Pathum Thani province, warns that rising fuel costs and stagnant rice prices are pushing smallholders to the brink. Farming since age 20, he says soaring input costs, low paddy prices and mounting debts mean many producers are working at a loss and “at 6,000 baht a tonne, we’re as good as dead.”

He urges the government to raise support or risk losing a generation of farmers.

Det er Songkran 2026 i Thailand!! Songkran er en av Thailands største festivaler som feires hver april. Det er thailandsk nyttår, og i dag skal vi se hvordan lokalbefolkningen feirer det i Chumphon-provinsen!

Rescue workers cordoned off the area while emergency crews searched the wreckage and planned the recovery operation. Authorities warned traffic congestion delayed access to the scene. Witnesses said the impact could have been far worse had the crash occurred on a busy weekday instead of a holiday, when roads and public transport were less crowded.

To russiske søskendes forsvinden afslørede mordet på en hel familie | Thailand, 2026



To russiske søskende, Diana Nazimova og Roman Nazimov, forsvandt efter at have forladt deres hjem nær Pattaya på motorcykel. Få dage senere opdagede efterforskerne deres Honda ADV 150 adskilt og begravet i en skov i Chonburi-provinsen. Eftersøgningen førte politiet til sidst til to mistænkte kendt som Pong og Thong - og til ligene af Diana og Roman. Men efterforskningen sluttede ikke der. Oplysninger indhentet under afhøringerne førte betjentene til et andet gravsted i nærheden, hvor et savnet thailandsk par og deres attenårige datter blev fundet. Ifølge efterforskerne var de samme mistænkte forbundet med begge sager. Politiet hævder, at ofrene var mål for deres køretøjer, og at angriberne i den tidligere sag udgav sig for at være politibetjente for at trænge ind i familiens hjem og fastholde dem. Opdagelsen forvandlede en efterforskning af savnede personer til to forbundne mordsager, der involverede fem ofre.

On August 7, 2026, a 14-year-old student carried out a deadly school shooting at Debsirin Nonthaburi School, just outside Bangkok, Thailand. But the violence had begun hours earlier, when police say he killed his grandparents at their home in Bang Bua Thong before taking his grandfather’s legally registered handgun to school.



People seem to assume bullying only cause by fellow students. Ever heard of getting bully by teacher? I'm not defending the shooter, but as someone who has experience mistreatment by a teacher, I kinda feel for him. When you are a target bullied by a teacher, it's much worse because noone can save you. Teacher have authority over your grades, and she can always claim that everything she did it's for your own good. The parents, or grandparents in this case, also gonna believe the teacher over you. She can be nasty when she is alone with you, but pretend to be angel in front of others. I've been through it, and still wish her ill all these years.

On August 7, 2026, a 14-year-old student carried out a deadly school shooting at Debsirin Nonthaburi School, just outside Bangkok, Thailand. But the violence had begun hours earlier, when police say he killed his grandparents at their home in Bang Bua Thong before taking his grandfather’s legally registered handgun to school.



This true crime documentary reconstructs the Thailand school shooting, the second crime scene at the shooter’s home, the police investigation into the Debsirin Nonthaburi School attack, and the questions surrounding the teenager’s motive and preparation. Investigators later examined his interest in firearms, online searches related to foreign school shootings, academic pressure, possible conflicts at school, and how a 14-year-old gained access to a real gun and nearly 100 rounds of ammunition.

The attack ultimately left eight victims dead, while the 14-year-old shooter also died, bringing the total death toll to nine. Thai government figures later confirmed 27 people were injured. The tragedy has renewed debate over gun violence in Thailand, school safety, firearm access, and warning signs of youth violence.

Tusindvis af køretøjer oversvømmet af oversvømmelser i Thailand! Alvorlige oversvømmelser ramte Pattaya



Pludselige oversvømmelser har lammet Pattaya, Thailand, i dag, da pludselige, voldsomme frokostregn udløste kraftig vandafstrømning fra de omkringliggende bakker, hvilket har efterladt flere lavtliggende områder fuldstændigt oversvømmet.

Vandstanden nåede op til næsten en meter i kritiske områder af feriebyen, hvilket bragte trafikken til standsning, oversvømmede erhvervsejendomme og fangede turister i populære underholdningsområder.

Chonburis provinsmyndigheder har straks erklæret en nødberedskab og indsat tunge vandpumper og redningsmandskab på tværs af vigtige hovedfærdselsårer, herunder Sukhumvit Road, Pattaya Third Road og jernbaneomfartsvejen, for at afhjælpe krisen, da forholdene fortsat er farlige.

Den pludselige oversvømmelse, der begyndte efter intens tordenvejraktivitet over Chonburis kystlinje, har alvorligt påvirket den daglige drift og tvunget lokale virksomheder til at lukke ned for tidligt og strandet hundredvis af pendlere i myldretiden.

Pludselige oversvømmelser ramte efter et massivt stormsystem, der var låst fast på Chonburis kystlinje. Med dræningssystemerne fuldstændig overvældet af mængden af r03;r03;vand, der strømmer fra højereliggende terræn, er flere nøglesektorer blevet gjort helt ufremkommelige eller stærkt begrænsede.

Det lavtliggende bassin omkring Mum Aroi-krydset (Peniat Chang) på Pattaya Third Road, der altid har været en af r03;r03;de primære sårbarheder i Pattayas bystruktur, har forvandlet sig til en hurtigtstrømmende flod. Vanddybden her svinger i øjeblikket mellem 80 og 100 centimeter.

Den dybeste vandmasse er koncentreret nær Pattaya Highway Police Station, Lotus South Pattaya (mod Sattahip) og nær Wat Nong Yai-krydset. Vanddybden varierer fra 50 til 70 centimeter, hvilket begrænser strømmen til en enkelt vognbane med høj frihøjde på hver side og efterlader trafikkøer i flere kilometer.

Pattaya under vand, Thailand i kaos! Gader oversvømmet efter kraftig regn ramte byen



Kraftigt regn skyllede hen over Pattaya den 23. september og forårsagede omfattende oversvømmelser og bragte trafikken til standsning i flere dele af byen. Oversvømmelserne ophobede sig hurtigt efter det intense regnskyl, hvilket oversvømmede større veje og lavtliggende områder og efterlod køretøjer, der kæmpede for at komme gennem de berørte gader.

Kanalen dækker en bred vifte af naturkatastrofer, herunder geologiske nødsituationer såsom jordskælv, vulkanudbrud, mudderstrømme, jordskred og laviner; hydrologiske nødsituationer såsom oversvømmelser, tsunamier og limnologiske katastrofer; brandhændelser såsom skov- og tørvebrande; og meteorologiske nødsituationer såsom tornadoer, cykloner, orkaner, snestorme, haglvejr, tørke, storme, tordenvejr og uvejr.

Thailand’s Future King Has Found Someone — But What Does It Mean for the Crown?

A young prince. A mysterious woman. One public moment on a Bangkok train platform—and suddenly, questions began spreading far beyond the original footage.

Prince Dipangkorn was reportedly seen with a young woman on the BTS SkyTrain. The identity of the woman, her nationality, and the nature of their relationship have not been officially confirmed.

But behind this unusual public moment lies a much larger story.

For more than a century, Thailand’s succession system has included provisions concerning royal descendants and marriage to foreign nationals. Historical royal cases have also raised questions about how marriage and succession can interact.

So if Dipangkorn were ever to marry a foreign woman, could it affect his position in Thailand’s line of succession?

In this documentary, BLACK UNCOVERED examines the widely discussed train-platform footage, the unanswered questions surrounding the woman, Thailand’s 1924 Palace Law of Succession, historical royal cases, King Vajiralongkorn’s role in succession matters, Princess Bajrakitiyabha’s place in the royal succession, Dipangkorn’s growing public role, and the online speculation surrounding the possibility of a future Rama XI.

But there is an important question:

Is the situation really as simple as some people online suggest?

Several crucial details remain unknown—including the woman’s confirmed identity, her nationality, the nature of their relationship, and what the King himself could decide if such circumstances ever became relevant.

This is not simply a story about a royal appearance.

It is a story about Thailand’s monarchy, succession, tradition, law, history, and the consequences that can arise when private matters intersect with the future of a royal institution.

What could this moment mean for Prince Dipangkorn—and potentially for the future of the Thai Crown?

Thailand Lost 10 Million Tourists — Here’s Where They’re Going Instead



Thailand is losing millions of tourists — but they haven’t stopped travelling. Vietnam is booming, Malaysia is growing, Japan is breaking tourism records, and destinations across Southeast Asia are competing for the travellers Thailand once took for granted.
So where did Thailand’s missing tourists actually go?
Thailand was once the automatic choice for travellers looking for beaches, nightlife, great food, affordable hotels and an easy holiday in Southeast Asia. But the tourism landscape is changing fast.
In this video, we investigate the real reasons behind Thailand’s tourism decline and follow where those travellers are going instead.
China once sent enormous numbers of tourists to Thailand, but Chinese arrivals have fallen sharply. At the same time, Vietnam tourism is growing, Malaysia is attracting more international visitors, Japan continues to break tourism records, and destinations such as Bali and the Philippines are giving travellers more choices than ever before.
We look at the biggest changes affecting Thailand tourism in 2026, including safety concerns, changing travel habits, rising competition, visa rules, value for money, taxi complaints, dual pricing, scams, and why repeat visitors may finally be trying somewhere new.
We also compare Thailand vs Vietnam, Malaysia, Japan, Bali and the Philippines to understand why some travellers are changing destinations.
Is Thailand simply becoming too expensive, or has the rest of Asia finally caught up?
And if Thailand is still one of the most beautiful and popular countries in the world, why is it no longer the obvious first choice for so many travellers?
In this video:
• Why Thailand is losing tourists
• Where Thailand’s missing visitors are going
• Why Chinese tourism to Thailand has fallen
• Why Vietnam tourism is growing so quickly
• Malaysia’s tourism boom
• Why Japan is attracting record visitor numbers
• Bali and the Philippines as alternatives to Thailand
• Thailand visa changes and travel friction
• Tourist scams, taxi complaints and dual pricing
• Thailand vs Vietnam for value
• Why repeat visitors are choosing somewhere new
• What Thailand’s tourism future could look like
Thailand is far from finished as a tourist destination. Millions of people still visit every year and many continue returning again and again.
But Thailand now faces something it did not have to deal with at the same level twenty years ago: choice.
Vietnam, Malaysia, Japan, Indonesia and the Philippines are all fighting for the same travellers.
The question is whether Thailand can become the first choice again.
If you used to travel to Thailand but now visit somewhere else, tell us in the comments where you switched to and what made you change.
And if you have travelled to Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Japan, Bali or the Philippines, which destination would you choose today?

Hendes Majestæt Dronningen foretog torsdag sin første soloflyvning i et Gripen-jagerfly i Surat Thani.

Før flyvningen modtog Hendes Majestæt Hans Majestæt Kongen i Wing 7 i Phun Phin-distriktet i den sydlige provins kl. 10.00. Derefter blev der afholdt en briefing om flyveplanen.

Kongeparret gik derefter til parkeringsbåsen for det enkeltsædede JAS 39 C Gripen-jetfly, hvor dronningen tjekkede flyet, inden hun kørte det til landingsbane 22 for start.

Efter soloflyvningen overrakte Hans Majestæt en buket og Gripen-ordenens Gyldne Patch til Hendes Majestæt Dronningen.

Dronningen blev første gang pilot den 13. maj 2010, da hun fløj en Cessna T-41D fra Fleet 604 på Wing 6 i Bangkok. Hun har siden akkumuleret 1.188,48 flyvetimer i en række forskellige fly:

Tusindvis af hjem og industrier oversvømmet! Kæmpeoversvømmelser hærger Thailand



En katastrofal oversvømmelseskrise har fuldstændig oversvømmet alle syv distrikter i det centrale Thailands Prachinburi-provins. Det har kostet mindst 19 mennesker livet og efterladt mere end 188.000 indbyggere strandet eller fordrevet, ifølge officielle opdateringer fra Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation (DDPM).

Satellitdata delt af Thailands Geo-Informatics and Space Technology Development Agency (GISTDA) bekræftede, at over 500.000 rai land i hele provinsen er blevet opslugt af grumset, hurtigtstrømmende oversvømmelsesvand fyldt med jordsediment og landbrugsafstrømning.

I Mueang Prachinburi-distriktet er provinshovedstaden fortsat under en ubarmhjertig oversvømmelse med oversvømmelsesvand, der er over en meter dybt i bycentrene.

Hovedfærdselsårer, inklusive de kritiske fire trafikbaner ved krydset med Prachinburi Highway District, er blevet fuldstændig ufremkommelige for små biler og almindelige køretøjer.

Ban Sang-distriktet oplever i øjeblikket, hvad lokale myndigheder beskriver som den mest alvorlige isolation i provinsen. Udbredt oversvømmelse fra nærliggende flodbassiner er ført direkte ind i lavlandsdistriktet og har fuldstændig oversvømmet alle ni underdistrikter.

Kabin Buri-distriktet, der ligger opstrøms, har også båret hovedbyrden af r03;r03;voldsomme oversvømmelser fra de nærliggende bjergkæder. Mere end 3.827 husstande på tværs af ni underdistrikter er blevet alvorligt påvirket.

Massive oversvømmelser langs større skibsruter, især rute 304 og rute 359, har afbrudt transportforbindelserne mellem det østlige og centrale Thailand. Redningsarbejdere har etableret en aktiv transitkorridor mellem Three Soldiers-krydset og Kabin Buri Hospital ved hjælp af militærlastbiler med høj frihøjde til at transportere medicinske nødsituationer og forsyningslinjer.

I distrikterne Sri Maha Phot og Si Mahosot er landbrugs- og industrizoner dybt oversvømmet. Lavtliggende samfund, såsom dem i Bang Pla Ra og Wat Muang Khao Kaew Phikun-områderne, har set vandstanden bryde ned til første sal i beboelsesetagen, hvilket har tvunget familier til at kravle op på hustagene.

I Prachantakham har 63 landsbyer rapporteret om omfattende skader på ejendom, hvor vandstanden fortsat er steget med yderligere 50 centimeter i perioden 6.-7. oktober. Nadi-distriktet har registreret næsten 500 husstande, der er blevet ramt af pludselige oversvømmelser, der skyllede husdyr væk og ødelagde den skrøbelige landlige infrastruktur.
