    Green world rising

    Guru, Pasavat Tanskul, Published on 12/07/2019

    » The Mall Group has begun charging B1 for each plastic bag to coincide with the International Plastic Bag Free Day on Jul 3. Shoppers at The Mall, Emporium, EmQuartier and Siam Paragon are being encouraged to bring their own bags for all their shopping needs. It's a small but significant step towards the city's progress in reducing the use of plastic like many other places in Thailand. Even Central Group has stopped handing out plastic bags to shoppers. Additionally, they will not provide plastic bags on the 1st, 4th and 16th of every month reminding shoppers to bring in their reusable bags.

    Loud and proud

    Guru, Pasavat Tanskul, Published on 14/06/2019

    » We've finally hit the half way mark of the year -- June and if you've been out and about, you may have noticed rainbow-coloured decorations (or at least rainbows on your Facebook newsfeed ) because we are in Pride Month. The month in which the LGBTQ+ community promote and express themselves and celebrate gender diversity and sexual identity. The gay pride movement is celebrated throughout the world ever since the Stonewall Riots of 1969 in Manhattan, New York, a pivo­tal event that led to creation of the movement for LGBT rights. Prominent figures in the community tell GURU what pride means to them and what are they proud. We've also compiled a few pride celebration events around the city that are worth everyone's attention.

    Life in plastic

    Guru, Pasavat Tanskul, Published on 22/06/2018

    » Earlier this month, a whale was found dead in the southern province of Songkhla after coughing up more than 80 (count 'em! 80!) pieces of plastic bags. We pay the price for being heavy users of single-use plastic items at the cost of a life of one poor, innocent mammal that made national and international headlines around the world. It's a huge wake-up call for us to take immediate action and change our behaviour with the way we do away with our rubbish.

    Biker brunch

    Guru, Pasavat Tanskul, Published on 18/05/2018

    » Food and vehicles may seem like an unlikely collaboration, but if prior efforts are of any evidence, it's that automobile/motorcycle cafes are no strangers to experimentation. From Ducati's concept restaurant a few years back in Thong Lor to Honda's recent collaboration with Greyhound at CUB House in Ekamai, these hybrid eateries are where diners have a meal while attending a casual motorshow. Sathorn's brunch cafe Luka has collaborated with BMW Thailand dealer MF Motorad to bring their second branch named Luka Moto, a cafe that aims to accommodate those with a lifestyle that relies on the need for speed. Having opened in March, the two-floor motorcycle-centric brunch spot is on the ground floor of The Taste Mall on Thong Lor 11, and is a haven for motorbike enthusiasts and brunch fans alike.
