How Aiyawatt’s Thai style leads Foxes to triumphant victory
13 Sept 20:24Key points summarised by AI
Leicester City achieved unprecedented success under Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha, winning the English Premier League in 2016 and the FA Cup in 2021, defying long odds.
The Srivaddhanaprabha family's football journey began with Aiyawatt's late father, Vichai, who bought Leicester City in 2010, with Aiyawatt playing a crucial role in guiding the team from the Championship to the EPL.
Aiyawatt continues to lead the club with a distinctive 'Thai style' of management, fostering a close, family-like atmosphere with players and staff, and demonstrating significant generosity to fans and the local community.
The recent FA Cup victory was an emotional triumph for Aiyawatt, who celebrated with his team and paid a heartfelt tribute to his father, underscoring the deep personal connection behind the club's achievements.
Suchada: Meet the reluctant star of Thailand’s cryptic crypto drama
Today 15:38Key points summarised by AI
Thai MP Suchada Zhang Thaensap faces intense scrutiny over her husband’s substantial 1.84 billion baht wealth, with opposition lawmakers alleging connections to international scam networks.
A significant portion of her husband, Taiyang Zhang's, declared assets includes a 1.44 billion baht loan to the now-bankrupt cryptocurrency hedge fund Three Arrows Capital, which still owes him 1.34 billion baht.
Opposition MP Rangsiman Rome accused Suchada's husband of links to online scam networks and gambling sites, prompting Suchada to vehemently deny the claims, demand evidence, and file a defamation complaint.
Taiyang Zhang's background includes co-founding Ren Protocol, later sold to Alameda Research (linked to the FTX collapse), and some of his former associates have been convicted in crypto company failures.
Suchada, a former actress and first-time MP, maintains her husband's innocence, while her party leaders have distanced themselves from the allegations, deeming it a private matter.
