Thai city ranked most polluted city in the world - GMT EP.480

In Thailand news, the country's lottery office has announced that it will no longer be paying out prizes with cash due to concerns over Covid-19 transmission. Winners will instead receive their payouts via bank transfer or electronic payment. Major oil companies have taken a precautionary step to stabilize the oil market by cutting production. This move comes as the global economy continues to be impacted by the pandemic. On a more alarming note, Chiang Mai has been ranked as the most polluted city in the world for nine consecutive days. Residents are urged to take precautions to protect their health. In a positive development, Bangkok police have rescued two underage girls from a prostitution ring. The girls were found in a hotel where they were being held against their will. The police have arrested several suspects in connection with the case. Lastly, a Taiwanese foodie has made headlines for eating 61 bowls of noodles at a Bangkok restaurant. The food challenge attracted a lot of attention on social media and has since gone viral. While it may seem like a lighthearted story, it serves as a reminder of the importance of supporting local businesses during these difficult times.
