15 Sept 01:31 Key points summarised by AI

Wang Nan returned to Phataem National Park to express gratitude to officials who rescued her five years ago after a 34-meter cliff fall.
In June 2019, she was pushed from the cliff by her husband, who sought her inheritance, resulting in severe injuries and a miscarriage.
Fortunately, trees broke her fall, preventing a fatal outcome, and a park rescue team promptly transported her for emergency treatment.
Her husband was subsequently convicted of attempted murder, with the Supreme Court ultimately sentencing him to 33 years and four months in prison.

Thailand secured a US$200 million loan from the World Bank to significantly invest in clean energy and low-carbon urban development initiatives.
The program aims to drive clean energy funding and low-carbon growth, ensuring a just transition for small and medium-sized enterprises, workers, farmers, and local communities.
Channelled through the Export-Import Bank of Thailand, the loan will fund energy efficiency upgrades in public buildings and industrial areas, including rooftop solar installations and electrical system modernizations, reducing initial capital burdens via Energy Service Companies (ESCOs).
