A place under the sun
Guru, Worada Elstow, Published on 25/03/2022
» Though Thailand has a reputation of being accepting of the LGBTQI+ community, legal rights haven't been extended, with existing discrimination and the almost daily fight to be treated as equals continuing. To commemorate Transgender Day of Visibility, a day dedicated to recognising the resilience and accomplishments of the transgender community, which is on March 31, Guru speaks with trans individuals about navigating their lives in the professional world.
The Sacredness Of Thai Degrees
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 21/01/2022
» A Facebook post by a doctor went viral last week and sparked a much-needed and perhaps overdue debate regarding the graduation ceremony at Thai universities. She claimed her employer friends wouldn't consider hiring graduates who didn't attend the ceremony to accept their diplomas from a member of the Thai royal family for fear of them being troublemakers. Being conferred your diploma by a member of the Thai royal family is a relatively new norm that started in the reign of King Rama VII. I would like to offer my personal experience regarding the tradition and my two satangs on the topic.
