» A creaky industrial elevator lit in red slowly brought us up to the plane's entrance. Taken a first step inside the refurbished aircraft that now doubles as a restaurant inside ChangChui Creative Park, it was like being transported into a dystopian world to taste a meal after doomsday.

The eyes can lie
Life, Melalin Mahavongtrakul, Published on 05/08/2019
» Thai people are considerably kind. We like making merit to help unfortunate souls. And especially in an era when everyone can easily connect through social media, the ways of merit-making have changed and expanded even further. From previously making physical donations at temples and charities, people now reach out to help individuals -- many times a stranger -- they see online. Pictures of sick dogs, cats, humans, or even a call for blood donations appear on our Facebook feeds often on a weekly basis. The plea for help -- coupled with touching stories and photos -- always tugs at our heartstrings. And it doesn't take long for many of us to lend a helping hand, mostly through making a swift donation to help with the cause.

Many now opt to take their work on the go, choosing their own preferred space to work in, which could be their home, co-working space, coffee shop, beach, mountain, abroad -- essentially anywhere. The idea is that they're no longer confined to a single location, like their main office. No more 9-to-5 working routine at an office cubicle.

» What is it like to be a transgender person in Thailand, a nation that seems to be friendly to the LGBTI population? Each person would probably reply differently depending on personal experiences they've had navigating their daily lives. But there remains a common theme of discrimination and prejudice -- found both at a personal and legal level -- that all of them face regardless of where or who they are in this society.

Bountiful Brisbane
B Magazine, Melalin Mahavongtrakul, Published on 28/07/2019
» Brisbane is generally not the first city that comes to mind when people think of Australia. Tourists may even skip it altogether for a busier metropolis like Sydney or the artsy Melbourne. But a recent trip to this capital of Queensland became a revelation of what we've been missing out on.

Chucky 4.0
Life, Melalin Mahavongtrakul, Published on 26/07/2019
» Walking into the cinema to see the rebooted Child's Play in 2019 was an interesting trip down memory lane. Creepy, murderous toy. Red hair. Denim overalls. A knife wielded. The iconic look of Chucky sure brought a great familiarity of a horrific, long-lost friend. A nightmare. A cult classic.
