Shift from tourism
Oped, Postbag, Published on 21/04/2021
» I commend Nareerat Wiriyapong for her April 19 article, "Tourism revival in doubt again" which presented a clear-eyed, factual analysis.

As roughly 60% of Thailand's tourists came from the West, Thailand can expect little recovery in Western tourists, because of the rise of unemployment, fear of health safety as well as mounting bankruptcies.

Just avoid the 'circus'
News, Postbag, Published on 07/02/2021
» I started my morning by reading your editorial on yet another police corruption situation and the supposed inability of the deputy prime minister to enforce the law with regard to Thailand's largest criminal network, the police. I was left just shaking my head at the admission that the government is unable or maybe unwilling to do its job.

Masks no hardship
