    Eyes wide open

    Life, Kong Rithdee, Published on 08/05/2020

    » The literature about modern Thai politics is not abundant, and by this I mean a narrative that grounds its characters in the double-whammy of coup d'etat and street protest that characterised the mid-2000s to mid-2010s. The period, plus a few years earlier when Thaksin Shinawatra rose to power, contains some of the most convulsive and era-defining moments that continue to shape the visible and invisible dimensions of Thai society in the present time, and it's astonishing that not more writers find it a rich wellspring of artistic expression (on the contrary, visual artists and theatre artists seem more responsive to the political currents of the same period).

    Bangkok aglow

    Life, Suwitcha Chaiyong, Published on 25/03/2020

    » The Bangkok metropolitan area has been in a state of continual change. Gravel roads turned to concrete. Large empty fields replaced with tall buildings and luxurious malls. Public transportation such as the BTS, MRT and buses have been extended to reach people in remote areas. And once friendly people with smiles, Thai people now prefer to look at their smartphone rather than paying attention to others.
