this story about Benjamin Mauerberger, a south african #crypto bro and card carrying member of the chinese #mafia who made so much money via #pigbutchering and other crypto scams that he managed to co-opt a large part of #Thailand's government (to say nothing of #Cambodia and #Myanmar) is nuts.

if you’re wondering about the dark forces driving the current war between thailand and cambodia, this is one of those forces.

In 2025, Trump’s second-term policies, including aggressive U.S. tariffs, a trade war with China and inconsistent commitments to allies, disrupted economic and security trends that are expected to continue in 2026. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2025/12/16/world/washington-transform-asia-in-2025-2026/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #worldnews #donaldtrump #us #china #asia #shinzoabe #vietnam #japan #australia #europe #thailand #xijinping #sanaetakaichi #taiwan #myanmar #cambodia

So they are both fighting again over a border dispute‽

Apparently, this was never previously resolved within diplomatic negotiations.

👉🏾 #Thailand 🇹🇭 and #Cambodia 🇰🇭 are fighting again, leaving a #Trump-brokered peace agreement all but dead. What happened? https://www.cnn.com/2025/12/09/asia/thailand-cambodia-border-conflict-explainer-intl-hnk

I think the only realistic options are either to insert a powerful peacekeeping force between these two nations or to let them fight it out amongst themselves.
