Guru, Napamon Roongwitoo, Published on 27/05/2016

E-bortion is not OK
Life, Napamon Roongwitoo, Published on 17/10/2014
» Every day I see disturbing things on social media. Sometimes it's something minor, like boastful friends posting pictures of their latest luxurious purchase, but from time to time, some really depressing things emerge on my screen, such as the recent forum discussing the prevalence of "abortion pills".
