Govt plans that sound like bad ideas
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 21/02/2020

Flippant reactions
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 09/06/2017
» You know how fun-loving and witty Thais can be. While I don't have issues with making light out of a serious situation, some of us go too far sometimes. The most recent flippant example is how some people have reacted to the ongoing saga of the karaoke girl murder. You probably have had enough of it by now so I won't go into details here.

This week, we examine five of the most controversial flippant actions that took place in Thailand. Judge for yourself whether they went too far.

» Lakorn, popular Thai TV soap operas, are a national pastime enjoyed by many.
