    What's cooking for breakfast?

    B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 08/01/2017

    » Everyone knows that breakfast is an important meal, but when looked at closely, it is as loaded with cultural significance as it is with vitamins and nutrients to fuel the coming day. It can provide a wealth of detailed information on the local environment, on the historical era in which it is or was eaten, the kind of work done by and the social status of the family who prepare and eat it, and the prevailing awareness of the relationship between food and good health.

    A sunshine state of mind

    B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 25/06/2017

    » There's more than a handful of things that Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and Bangkok have in common. For one, both places are hot, humid and rainy. Another thing is that they are both swarmed by mosquitoes, and palm, coconut and banana trees can be seen everywhere. A visit to Fort Lauderdale could very well make you feel right at home, save for the fact that cars drive on the right side of the road and the city boasts much better urban planning.

    Head south for retirement bliss

    B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 30/04/2017

    » Thailand is becoming an ageing society and some of us need to be well prepared. How will your life be after retirement? It's wise to plan how to get by in those possibly empty-handed years. Better than a plan is to save up now and purchase health insurance or, if life savings permit, invest properly. Make sure you get access to the financial aid and welfare from the government.

    A small place with big heart

    B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 30/11/2014

    » Photharam in Ratchaburi province is a small district that might seem unremarkable at first. It has nothing to draw tourists, is not important economically, boasts nothing flashily contemporary, is innocent of hotels and, in short, has nothing to attract the eye or make you take a second look. But if you stay there for a while and look at things slowly and carefully you will be fascinated by Photharam. There are intriguing things to be found beneath its modest surface.

Many are arrested after becoming involved in the drug trade, used as tools by dealers. As young as 18, they are drawn into the wrong kind of company, their gullibility exploited. They tend to be girls with little education from poor families who are desperate for money.
