MILESTONES

REGAINED: In a bloody bout decided by unanimous decision, the WBC super flyweight title by Srisaket Sor Rungvisai of Si Sa Ket. He battered Roman “Chocolatito” Gonzalez and left him bleeding in the Madison Square Gardens ring in his first defeat in 47 fights. Srisaket, 42-4-1 overall, has won 41 of his last 42 ring battles. Gonzalez demanded a rematch.

APOLOGISED: Belatedly but in writing, for calling two Hmong girls “thieves” in photos and words, The Sun of London and Daily Mail Australia. Both the notorious “newspapers” had claimed the girls were “tiny thieves” who stole a watch of a stupid woman who found it at home later. Two other British papers, The Telegraph and Daily Express lacked honour enough to admit their libellous error.

DIED: At about 25, after surgery and an extended fight against an extended belly, Orm Sin. We didn’t know her soon enough or well enough. But in the past two months she became part of the national family — even though, to be frank, he was money hungry.

SENTENCED: To prison for between 12,255 and 12,267 years by the Criminal Court, Ufun pyramid scheme organisers. Former gay rights advocate Natee Teerarojanapong and fellow Ponzi phuyai bilked 120,000 people out of 20 billion baht. They will serve no more than 50 years or 0.004% of their sentence.

FOR SALE: By middleman, Lamborghini supercar driven slowly by C-list celebrity husband of B-list celebrity actress to and from race meets. Previous owner was careful Lao businessman currently unavailable for interview. Priced for quick sale due to legal commitments. Will consider all serious bids above 12 million baht.

BANNED: By US and British airlines, self-provided in-flight entertainment on planes coming from — but not going to — 10 cities in the Middle East. The airlines and security officials claimed the ban on all electronics bigger than a phone was because of a “credible threat” of tiny bombs similar to those that blew up inside jetliners in 1994 and again last year.
