The Thai movie 'Grand Sun Wealth Strategy' has achieved great success in Malaysia, Indonesia, and Singapore, breaking records in terms of box office sales. The film not only brings tears with its depiction of family relationships but also showcases Thai-Chinese cultural contexts. Through scenes involving the Chaozhou dialect, the film reflects the unique phenomenon of contemporary Thai-Chinese people no longer communicating in Chinese due to historical factors. The inclusion of the old Chaozhou lullaby song in the movie adds a poignant touch, particularly resonating with lead actor Billkin, who grew up in a Chinese family and is familiar with the song. The film also explores unique aspects of Thai funeral customs, incorporating scenes of family members knocking on coffins, which have become a common practice in Thai funerals despite differing from traditional Chinese funeral customs.

Cuba has been bustling lately with four Russian warships arriving in Havana port, prompting the U.S. and Canada to dispatch their own ships to Cuban waters. The simultaneous presence of warships from the three countries has raised concerns of potential conflict. However, CNN journalist Patrick Oppmann boarded the Russian escort ship 'Marshal Ustinov' for a firsthand look, while nearby was the nuclear-powered submarine 'Kazan'. Despite Russian and Cuban officials stating that the fleet poses no threat to the U.S., the warships carry the Zircon hypersonic missile, increasing tension due to Cuba's close proximity to the U.S. at just over 100 kilometers away.
