Are you AEC-ready?
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 22/01/2016
» All those years leading up to AEC were spent in childlike excitement in Thailand. Now it's been 22 days since the official launch of the much-anticipated Asean Economic Community, but if you've only managed to (vaguely) memorise all 10 names of Asean members and their corresponding greetings -- and practically nothing else -- don't worry. Forget experts' and authorities' mundane and serious suggestions on how to prepare for the AEC. This week, Guru makes getting to know AEC fun for everyone.

Puzzling Pricings
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 15/06/2012
» I was on Silom Road recently when I came upon a farang man, probably in his 20s. He asked a motorcycle taxi driver how much he would charge for a lift to a nearby hotel. The driver mimed out a price of B30 with his hands. The guy mistook the gesture for B300 and became upset. The driver was offended too that the farang thought he tried to rip him off. Only after another driver explained that there was no extra zero, he gestured a wai to the driver to apologise. Both men swallowed their bruised pride before they agreed to complete the B30 transaction.

You're fired!
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 09/03/2012
» What's the riskiest thing you've ever done at the office? Stealing your boss's hair from his/her desk to use in a voodoo doll? Taking a secret nap in the meeting room? Coming to work unwashed after partying all night? Or just generally slacking off? We have all done a thing or two that management would frown upon (if they came to know of it). And you should be careful because, unlike esteemed MPs and high-ranking officials, Somchais and Somyings get fired every day for their mistakes and sometimes for causes you can't imagine. We've selected five cases of extraordinary sackings which, in hindsight, reveal tips to help you keep your job or at least give you some ideas to go out with a bang.
