» Re: "'Back of the Class' graphic", (BP, March 22). The Bangkok Post graphics frequently shake up one's fixed thoughts. From the latest graphic of the World Population Review ranking the education of 203 countries, there are the following shocking and surprising revelations.

» Re: "7 Charges for motorcycle cop who killed pedestrian", (BP, Jan 25). The tragic and unnecessary death last week of the young eye doctor illustrates, yet again, the dismissive and irresponsible attitude of drivers, evident daily, to road conditions and signage, in particular pedestrian crossings and traffic lights.
Golden chance to help

» Reading about the terrible plight of the people in the Klong Toey slum, I wonder why one of our super rich billionaires doesn't adopt this slum and make it his project to make life more tolerable and give these people a little hope, even if it is just until they are able to get back to work again.

Setting bad examples

» Vint Chavala makes one of his customary melodramatic rants in "Poisonous billionaires", (PostBag, May 4), this time against "many billionaires", one presumably being Mr Thanathorn. However, he does not name any others apart from Thaksin Shinawatra, nor does he give us the faintest clue why Mr Thanathorn personally should be regarded as "poisonous".
