    In Zimbabwe, literature is protest

    Oped, Published on 10/10/2020

    » In November 2017, when a military coup removed Robert Mugabe as Zimbabwe's head of state after 37 years of rule, euphoria gripped the whole country. Many saw it as an end to "the house of hunger" -- the title of a widely read 1978 novel by Dambudzo Marechera that described the people's suffering under tyranny.

    Trump's Miss Universe foreign policy

    News, Published on 12/05/2016

    » OK, it's easy to pick on Donald Trump's foreign policy. But just because he recently referred to the attack on the World Trade Center as happening on "7/11" -- which is a convenience store -- instead of 9/11, and just because he claimed that "I know Russia well" because he held a "major event in Russia two or three years ago -- (the) Miss Universe contest, which was a big, big, incredible event" -- doesn't make him unqualified.

    Will foreign investors still be wooed?

    Oped, Chartchai Parasuk, Published on 28/12/2023

    » This is my last article for 2023. Appropriately, I should write about the 2024 economic outlook but I have decided to postpone that to be the first article of 2024 as the analysis might be too unpleasant to digest right now. However, I will leave a "teaser" for readers to ponder over during the long holidays. As such, I am left with two choices: an article about informal debt -- I estimate outstanding debt to be over 400 billion baht and that it could have strong ties with grey money -- or an article about Thailand's ability to attract foreign investors, as our Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin travels all over the world to attract them. In the end, I opted for the latter.

    The real dividing line separating Israel and Palestine

    Oped, Published on 20/10/2023

    » The barbarism that Hamas has unleashed on Israel should be condemned unconditionally, with no "ifs" or "buts". The massacres, rapes, and abductions of civilians from villages, kibbutzim, and a music festival was a pogrom, confirming that Hamas's true goal is to destroy the state of Israel and all Israelis. That said, the situation demands historical context -- not as any kind of justification, but for the sake of clarity about the way forward.
