The naked Proof
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 25/01/2012
» Of late, there's been a fair share of diverse, interesting international bands playing Bangkok, rather than the usual stadium acts or veteran performers who are on their last world tour... for the 10th time.

Thailand, branded
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 13/06/2012
» Thai authorities are very good at wasting taxpayers' money. Even setting aside the ongoing diabolical corruption, our governments - past, present and future - have a knack of spending our hard earned cash in the most nonsensical manner. Elite cards? Bangkok Fashion City? Tablets? Fake CCTV cameras? The litany goes on.

The tribulations of trying to be the cool aunt
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 12/12/2012
» One of the biggest joys of being an aunt is that you simply get to hang about when things are dandy with the little ones. Then they start crying, and you just hand them back to their parents. Pack the stuffed animals, wipe your hands and go for a drink.
