» 1. We all know that being a musician can be tough, especially for indie artists who don't have a giant music label to back them up. Show your support for the artists responsible for your favourite songs at the Long Khan Music Festival, a pay-what-you-want event where every bit of money goes toward the performing artists. Aside from purchasing CDs and merchandise, you can also show your appreciation directly by putting money in each artist's khan (or water bowl), so that they may continue to rock your world in future.

Stone on Snowden
Life, Kanin Srimaneekulroj, Published on 07/10/2016
» Director Oliver Stone likes to tell stories of larger-than-life characters. Or not just characters, but real people caught up in the swirl of American history, which is sometimes to say world history: John F. Kennedy in JFK (1991); Jim Morrison in The Doors (1991); Richard Nixon in Nixon (1995); Fidel Castro in Commandante (2003); Alexander the Great in Alexander (2005); and George W Bush in W (2008). The fuzzy line between glory and shame of American policy is also his favourite subject, such as in the Vietnam War-set Platoon (1986), Wall Street (1987), Born On The Fourth Of July (1989) and World Trade Center (2006).
