    Getting Food at Bangkok Malls in 2021

    Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 06/08/2021

    » On Sunday, the Centre of Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) announced 29 provinces as dark red zones, up from the previous 13, along with strict measures to control the spread. Bangkok is, of course, a dark red zone and most of the prohibitions and temporary closures of certain venues are understandable. One prohibition, in particular, at the time of going to print has left me (and many others) scratching their heads.

    News, Postbag, Published on 15/12/2020

    » Andy Cule's Dec 13 letter asks the reasonable question as to why vaccinated tourists would need to quarantine when coming to Thailand. Unfortunately, the vaccines have only been found to be effective in stopping symptoms of the virus, but have not been tested to see if they prevent infection and therefore the ability to infect others.

    Sour side of sugar

    News, Postbag, Published on 15/11/2019

    » It is interesting to see how the sugar industry has come out against the ban on the three harmful pesticides. The industry claims the ban will drive up the price of sugar. Somehow, the health of consumers and those who work in the industry does not factor into the equation. Everything is always evaluated in profit margins. The price hike would be enough to drive consumers away from sugar in general. I say, good riddance. Reducing sugar consumption would be a healthier decision for all. In fact, a cut to all sweeteners -- natural or artificial -- should be paramount to one's health and well-being.
