THAI MUAY THAI ICON BUAKAW TO MAKE APPEARANCE AT 88RISING’s HEAD IN THE CLOUDS FESTIVAL LA

Legendary Muay Thai fighter Baukaw has announced a special appearance at the annual Head in the Clouds festival in Los Angeles this weekend.

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, May 29, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- As AAPI month comes to a close, legendary Muay Thai fighter Baukaw has announced a special appearance at the annual Head in the Clouds festival in Los Angeles this weekend. Fans will have an opportunity to meet Buakaw in person and take photos with him at this unique event melding music and culture. Presented by the Asian American powerhouse 88rising, the festival will take place over the weekend of May 31st and June 1st at The Rose Bowl in Pasadena.

Bringing the world-famous art of Muay Thai and Thai culture to LA is something important to Buakaw, symbolizing national pride and Thai identity—an enduring tradition passed down through generations. With the meet and greet sold out within minutes, fans will still have the opportunity to see him appear on stage for a surprise appearance during a performance celebrating his Thai heritage and keeping the tradition alive within the music community.

Buakaw said in a statement, “I'm thrilled to come to Head in the Clouds LA to represent Thai culture and bring Muay Thai to the world. While there, I look forward to greeting fans of the sport and meeting new ones!” His hope is to learn more about the music culture at Head in the Clouds, aiming to bring the depth of knowledge and cultural significance behind Muay Thai to new audiences.

With recent immigration changes happening in the US, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is working closely with The Sports Authority of Thailand to facilitate the issuance of appropriate visas, including a 90-day education visa and longer 180-day stays for Muay Thai training. The importance of keeping cultural heritage alive is more important now than ever, and Buakaw is aiming to use his platform to share Thai culture in a collaborative way, encouraging attendees to look past the sport.

Additionally, efforts are being made to ensure that Muay Thai gyms around the globe—continue to embody the discipline, values, and technical excellence rooted in tradition. This is how Muay Thai was originally taught and how it continues to be celebrated.

Komisja Europejska chce wprowadzić ujednolicone przepisy dotyczące wyrobów tytoniowych. Europosłowie mówią o kolejnej nadregulacji

Ministerstwo Zdrowia opracowało nowy projekt przepisów wprowadzających kolejne zakazy dotyczące wyrobów tytoniowych – całkowitą eliminację e-papierosów oraz zakaz aromatów w woreczkach nikotynowych. Najprawdopodobniej w ciągu kolejnych dwóch–trzech lat Polska będzie musiała implementować nową dyrektywę dotyczącą wszystkich produktów tytoniowych, nad którym niebawem ma rozpocząć prace Komisja Europejska. Europosłowie mówią o ryzyku chaosu legislacyjnego, nadregulacji i wskazują na zagrożenia związane z proponowaną podwyżką akcyzy.

Za trzy miesiące ruszy w Polsce system kaucyjny. Wątpliwości budzą kwestie rozliczeń i podatków

Zaledwie trzy miesiące zostały do startu systemu kaucyjnego w Polsce. Kaucje obejmą szklane i plastikowe butelki oraz puszki z napojami. To duża zmiana dla producentów napojów, sklepów i konsumentów oraz pośredniczących w zbiórce operatorów systemów kaucyjnego. Na razie przepisy są na tyle niedoprecyzowane, że budzą wiele wątpliwości w kwestii rozliczania podatków czy rozliczeń z operatorami. Producenci będą musieli płacić podatek od niezwróconych butelek, co zwiększy ich koszty.

Rośnie skala agresji na polskich drogach. Problemem jest nie tylko nadmierna prędkość, ale też jazda na zderzaku

Za kilka dni zaczynają się wakacje, czyli statystycznie najniebezpieczniejszy czas na drogach. Wśród głównych przyczyn takich zdarzeń na prostych odcinkach drogi są nadmierna prędkość i jazda na zderzaku. Zarządca autostrady A4 Katowice–Kraków w ramach kampanii „Nie zderzakuj. Posłuchaj. Jedź bezpiecznie” zwraca uwagę na zjawisko agresji na polskich drogach i przypomina, że bezpieczeństwo zaczyna się od osobistych decyzji kierowcy.
