Vietnamese man tries to row dinghy from Thailand to India to see wife

Ho Hoang Hung set off from the holiday island of Phuket in an inflatable rubber dinghy, equipped with water and instant noodles but no navigation system, planning to cross the Bay of Bengal not long before the start of cyclone season.
A fishing boat found the 37-year-old on Wednesday near the Similan Islands, about 80 kilometres off the Thai mainland, and contacted the navy’s maritime security unit, which rescued him.
Ho told officials he was trying to reach his wife, who works in Mumbai, after spending two years apart because of Covid travel restrictions, said Capt Pichet Songtan from the Thai Maritime Enforcement Command Centre.
Pichet said the man was found with no map, compass, GPS or change of clothes and only a limited amount of water.
Ho had initially flown to Bangkok but found that without a visa he could not travel on to India, so he took a bus to Phuket, where he acquired the dinghy.
After setting off around 5 March, he was apparently held up by headwinds, making limited progress in the two weeks before he was found.

83-year-old attempts solo Pacific crossing
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...cisco-to-japan
Đàn bà đi biển có conQuote:
Kenichi Horie, also known as “Japan’s most famous yachtsman”, became the first person to make a non-stop solo crossing of the Pacific in 1962. On that trip, he was still a 23-year old amateur seaman. Horie set off from Osaka and sailed across the ocean for 94 days, surviving on canned food and rice before arriving in San Francisco.
In the 60 years since then, Horie has made multiple Pacific crossings. The boat Horie used in 1962 has been on display at San Francisco’s Maritime Museum. Named “Mermaid,” the boat lives in the museum’s foyer and is the “superstar” attraction, John Muir, the museum’s small craft curator, told the San Francisco Chronicle.
Horie has voyaged across the Pacific on a variety of vessels, including ones made from aluminum cans and powered by solar panels and another propelled by foot pedals. In 1999, he sailed from the west coast to Japan on a catamaran made out of beer kegs. Three years later, he sailed the other way around via whiskey barrels.
For his upcoming journey on Saturday, Horie’s vessel is a 2,182lb and 19ft long sailboat made out of pale aluminum, customized to fit his build.
At 5ft tall, Horie does not physically train for his voyages, telling the publication, “I’m always fine, always in shape … No overeating, no over-drinking”.
When asked whether he had any concerns for his trip, Horie said, “Nothing at all. Maybe just being old.”

Kim Jong-un gets Top Gun treatment in North Korea’s missile coverage

Kim, wearing a leather jacket and sunglasses and flanked by uniformed military officers, is shown in slow motion walking and pointing as hangar doors slowly open to reveal the massive missile.
After the missile disappears, Kim celebrates with his two top aides shouting “hurray” and raising their hands.
The TV footage of the launch sparked memes and remixes online calling Kim “Top Kim Jong-un” or referring to the video as “Pyongyang Style”.

Russia seizes Audemars Piguet watches in apparent retaliation for Swiss sanctions

Russian agents seized millions of dollars worth of Audemars Piguet watches in Moscow in an apparent retaliation for Swiss sanctions banning luxury goods exports, Bloomberg reported, citing Swiss newspaper NZZ am Sonntag.
The watches, which can cost more than £700,000 apiece, were seized from the firm’s local premises by agents from Russia’s FSB security service on Tuesday, the newspaper said. It cited independent sources and a confidential Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs memo written for members of parliament that apparently gave details of the raid.

Sales, he says, have spiked 1,000% since that time as anxieties around the pandemic, civil unrest, climate change and war have driven more buyers to his company.
“In the past month, I would have normally fielded less than 100 inquiries – I’ve fielded over 3,000,” Lynch tells me over the phone. He sold five bunkers on a single day in February, at prices ranging from $70,000 to $240,000.

Quite unlike anything the company has made before, the Dyson Zone is sure to draw quizzical looks. It is a set of large, plush headphones with a plastic mask-type contraption that connects from ear-to-ear across the wearer’s mouth and looks like something out of a sci-fi movie.
It delivers purified air to the mouth and nose while simultaneously tackling noise pollution through its active noise cancelling technology.
The Dyson Zone is due to go on sale in the Autumn for an as-yet unannounced premium price expected to be in the £500 to £1,000 range.

The judge, who had served two decades on the bench, resigned in February when reports emerged that she was being investigated.
Along with the ham and meatballs, she had tried to hide sausages and cheese in a woven bag by covering them with another bag, according to the legal news outlet Dagens Juridik.
The judge admitted to the facts but denied any intention to steal the groceries, and was issued a fine of 50,000 Swedish kronor.

Le Tran, human rights activist
In April 2016, a Taiwanese steel plant released toxic waste into the sea off the Vietnamese coast, killing more than 100 tonnes of fish and destroying thousands of livelihoods overnight.
The news sparked protests across the country, and caught the attention of 28-year-old Le Tran*. She had never campaigned against anything before – at least, not publicly – but the cause struck a chord. Soon she was travelling up and down the country, speaking out against the Vietnamese government’s apparent negligence, and befriending activists who were protesting about other issues, such as digital surveillance, human rights and torture. “It just happened naturally, day by day,” she says. “I followed my heart, and became an activist.”
It was only later that Tran heard her activities had potentially caught the attention of the authorities, and she risked having her passport confiscated if she didn’t get out of the country fast. She hasn’t seen her family in person since.
Today Tran, 33, is based in Thailand, part of a tight community of Vietnamese dissidents, all unable to return home.
There’s comfort to be found in shared experience, Tran says: everyone is always looking out for one another. But their proximity to Vietnam presents a problem. “There are a lot of Vietnamese secret agents in Thailand who observe the Vietnamese community,” she says, citing an incident in 2019, when the Vietnamese journalist Truong Duy Nhat applied for refugee status in Thailand, only to be sent back to Hanoi, where he remains imprisoned. “It is really dangerous.”
With her friends facing the same threats, well-practised measures are baked into their social lives. “Most of the time we speak English, and we speak really quietly so people will not know we’re Vietnamese,” Tran says. Even sharing a flat is considered too much of a risk. “If I get arrested, I can send an SOS message to my friend and she can help,” Tran says. If they lived together, she worries they would be arrested at the same time and nobody would know.
Even at home, Tran can’t relax. “During the night-time, if I hear any noise, my eyes are wide open,” she says. “I am always alert, always ready.” On the kitchen table are two backpacks – one to wear on her front, one on her back.
“In my small bag, I pack my passport, purses, earphones, power bank, charger, notebook, pen, flash lamp, whistle, bag with basic skin care and medicines, hand sanitiser and chocolate,” she says. “In the large bag, I keep my laptop, charger and mouse.”
She doesn’t know if she will ever need them, but having them within arms’ reach is a comfort. “I know that in case of emergency, I can run immediately,” she says. “I might be in danger, but that makes me feel safe.
