After all, with online platforms like Netflix, Iflix, YouTube and even Facebook giving us the ability to access our preferred media content at any place or time of our choosing, many consumers are now given more choices in how they can consume media content than ever before.

Reasons for back-breaking
Life, Kanin Srimaneekulroj, Published on 11/09/2015
» Many would probably agree with me that watching Tony Jaa deliver righteous fury upon scores of bad guys is all good fun in and of itself. When we actually think about it, Jaa's past characters have committed untold absurdities to hundreds of people (who, to be fair, probably deserve it) for pretty minor reasons. The seminal Ong Bak is about a guy who wreaks havoc through the streets of Bangkok, probably causing millions of baht worth of damages, all for the head of a Buddha statue. In Tom Yum Goong, he was a guy who single-handedly brought down an international crime cartel because they made a fossil exhibit out of his favourite elephant. It's clear that as long as we are treated to Jaa's unmatched ability to bring the pain, the reasons why do not matter so much.

Eyes on the road
Life, Kanin Srimaneekulroj, Published on 22/02/2017
» Dashboard cameras have been around for many years. However, the device has increasingly made its way into the collective consciousness of Thai society after a spate of road-rage incidents -- some with fatal consequences -- that dramatically and legally hinged on the crucial evidence of recorded images from the car cameras. The government this week also hints that it may mandate every new vehicle to install a camera on the dashboard, probably in effect before Songkran season in April.
