Oped, Kavi Chongkittavorn, Published on 26/12/2023
» Starting Jan 1, Lao PDR will officially take over the chairmanship of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean).

Premeditated Jerusalem violence
Oped, Published on 12/04/2023
» The recent attacks in Israel demonstrate the consequences of using lies as political instruments, inciting terrorism and generating violence.

That evening, a car-ramming attack at Tel Aviv's beachfront promenade killed Alessandro Parini, a 35-year-old lawyer from Rome, and injured seven pedestrians, all tourists from Italy and the United Kingdom.
