» Re: “Court to hear Srettha case”, (BP, May 24) and “Thailand’s judiciary face challenges”, (Opinion, May 24). Prof Thitinan Pongsudhirak’s biting comments on the judiciary’s influence on the lifeline of an elected prime minister are most justified based on past events. For the coming challenge facing our Constitutional Court, it is different from the past. The court’s 5-4 vote not suspending PM Srettha’s lifeline before he has the chance of defence is laudable.

'Pretenderloin' not so bad

» Eric Bahrt in his Dec 12 letter is back again with his "Meat is murder" campaign. I'm not in agreement with Eric, but this time he did touch a sympathetic nerve. During the late 50s when Chicago was the meat packing capital of the USA, (and I was still a teenager), I was taken on a tour of the Swift and Armor meat slaughterhouses and packing plants. I vomited copiously at the disgusting spectacle before me, and swore never to eat another piece of meat. I lasted about a year before I recanted and had a burger. Did I learn my lesson? Yes Eric, I did. But I'm still carnivorous.
An 'abominable' act

» In dropping charges against Vorayuth "Boss" Yoovidhya, the Thai police and the Thai government have once again boldly revealed their corrupt souls. Absent shame or mitigating circumstances they have defined their version of justice, integrity and dictatorial rule by law in this abominable decision.
Spotlight on racism

» Re: Regarding the attentive reader's assertion in "Having it both ways", (PostBag, April 13) and the complaints about the "Govt duty to curb virus hate crime", (Editorial, April 12), it's simple. If a Facebook site is targeting a specific group of people because of the colour of their skin, rather than all people breaking social distancing rules, that is racism.
