Oped, Thitinan Pongsudhirak, Published on 01/12/2023
» The appointment of Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha as privy councillor has neatly bookended Thai politics over the past decade. It coincides with the 10-year anniversary of the street demonstrations that were led by the People's Democratic Reform Committee, paving the way for Gen Prayut to stage a military coup in May 2014. While the interim was a period of hard and soft military-authoritarian rule in 2014-19 and 2019-23, the new moving balance in Thai politics is a semi-democracy of sorts under the Pheu Thai Party-led coalition government.

My breakup with TikTok was a return to reality
Oped, Vishal Karuppasamy, Published on 12/04/2023
» It was 2.30am, and I was lying in bed with my phone in my hand and my TikTok "For You" page fired up. I knew I shouldn't be awake. A month into my junior year of high school, my workload was already piling up. If I didn't get at least a few hours of sleep before my alarm went off, I would pay for it in class the next day.
