    Questionable law

    News, Postbag, Published on 12/11/2015

    » Well done to Sanitsuda Ekachai (Opinion, Nov 11) for boldly asking questions about the suspicious detention deaths of two people accused of lese majeste. Defending the good name of our monarchy is of paramount "national" importance here, but every opaque and questionable use of this law has a negative impact on the institution it is trying to defend.

Using the same logic, or rather generalisation, all Catholics are homosexual paedophiles, Buddhist monks are purveyors of hate and violence and the Jewish people are murderous Zionist extremists, etc, etc, etc. It simply isn’t true. So I agree. It really is time to get real.

    Looking closer at TPP

    News, Postbag, Published on 26/11/2015

    » Re: “What the TPP pact means for Thailand”, (PostBag, Nov 25). The Trans-Pacific Partnership is in part about trade, but it also directly serves the interests of multinational corporations who seek to benefit from a single regulatory environment to be established among all TPP member nations.
