» Re: "Partnering up for a resilient future", (Opinion, Nov 20). My social media feeds have been overflowing with desperate reels from the recent mega-flooding. And amid all this chaos, one question hangs heavily in the air: Where is the government? And more importantly, even if it wanted to respond, how would it know where help is needed?

» Re: "New DES minister urged to prioritise AI", (Business, Sept 23). My son, who completed a BBA, has just joined an MBA programme at a local university. For this, he had to cancel his existing visa from his college and apply for a fresh one through his new university. He reached the immigration office at 8am and was given token 78 for cancellation and 900 for issuance of a new visa. With each applicant's process taking about 10 minutes, he would easily be spending over 12 hours there. The officials work beyond 4.30pm and until 9pm to issue or reject every visa.

Bangkok traffic cure

» Re: "Congestion fee questions", (Editorial, Oct 23). Indeed, penalising parties using private cars coming to town does not alone solve the horrendous traffic jams that some Bangkokians have to endure. The crucial enticement is to provide alternatives that are reliable citi-wise and popular. In London, it is usual to see most office workers taking public transport to work and using private cars at weekends.
