    Photographic Storyteller

    Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 30/05/2019

    » We first interviewed Peerapat "Add" Wimolrungkarat because of his unique job as personal photographer for Abhisit Vejjajiva while he was the 27th prime minister of Thailand many moons ago. Since then Add has gone on to become the photo editor of The Momentum and The Standard news websites and since 2017, has worked as the photographer for Isra Sunthornvut, secretary-general of Asean Inter-Parliamentary Assembly. Recently he was chosen as a finalist in StreetFoto San Francisco 2019 Contest and his works, along with four Bangkok-based photographers, will be exhibited from June 3-9. Also a Leica ambassador since 2016, he is holding the “Sense Of Place” exhibition, which runs until Jun 16 at Leica Gallery Bangkok.

    » An independent game developer achieved momentary fame last week when his iOS game went to top position in the Thai App Store. His brainchild - called Thai Fight - allows you to pitch Yingluck against Abhisit (more on it later in this article) and appeared amidst this political tension. Since you’re practically glued to your smartphone 24/7 anyway, we’re giving kudos to the coolest made-in-Thailand games you can happily kill time with.

    Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 21/06/2013

    » Lakorn, popular Thai TV soap operas, are a national pastime enjoyed by many. Even if you're not a fan, you won't be able to escape them with your friends confessing their love for phra ek (male lead) on Facebook daily, or the recapping of last night's episode at lunch. There's no denying that lakorn are an unshakable part of contemporary Thai culture. Since you can't avoid them, we here at Guru have come up with some lakorn-inspired games that all can enjoy. We have also dug up some unbelievable facts and drama that surround the cultural staple.

    Double Lives

    Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 13/07/2012

    » Not everything is what it seems when it comes to defining someone by their occupation. For example, Itthipat Kulapongvanich made some serious cash by selling online game items before he became the CEO of seaweed enterprise Taokaenoi. Pleum Leekpai is the energetic, funny and politically incorrect co-host of TV show VRZO but he also wore a tie and looked professional during his time as an assistant to a Ministry of Culture spokesperson. And even Superman works as a reporter named Clark Kent when he isn't fighting villains and saving the world.

    » If we were to see the world like a child, we would realise there are so many unanswered questions staring us right in the face; at restaurants, on the street, pretty much everywhere we look. But don't fret, as we've done some digging and tackled questions you have never even thought to ask. Here are the little-known origins of eight things to bore your date or people at a party with. Don't say we never teach you anything.

    Do not pass

    Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 30/03/2012

    » The recent fight between BTS security guards and an Irish man over his daughter's balloons at Phrom Phong station produced one good thing. It's now etched in people's minds (probably for the first time) that innocent balloons are forbidden within the Skytrain system because they are inflammable and, therefore, considered a threat to passenger safety. There goes our plan to suck in helium and talk funny to pass time on the train.
