The treacherous sycophancy of the populists
Oped, Michael Burleigh, Published on 15/12/2025
» Until a few days ago, it had never crossed my mind that people across Europe -- including Londoners like me -- were living in a strife‑afflicted hell hole, "suffocated" by regulations, stripped of political liberties, and bound for "civilisational erasure". So, it was with some surprise that I read this assessment in the new US National Security Strategy -- a document that echoes pseudo‑intellectual propaganda more than resembling any serious foreign‑policy analysis.
Map it, please

» Re: "Road collapse shocker", (BP, Sept 25). Indeed, a picture is worth a thousand words -- if there is one! But why, oh why, are Bangkok Post reporters incapable of including a map with their articles, whether they are about new roads, floods, border problems, or whatever?

» Re: "Debt woes far from over", (Editorial, July 31). The elephant in the Thai debt room is that it's nearly impossible for Thai farmers to pay off their debt -- and each government, including Srettha's, carefully dodges the issue, letting the boils fester and grow.

Too hot for some
Oped, Postbag, Published on 03/01/2024
» Re: "SET credibility crisis", (PostBag, Jan 2). Neither "Unfairly treated", nor Paul Renaud need any pity. After all, "Unfairly treated" remarks himself in his contribution that denial of equal rights to foreign investors has been the established practice for years. So if you know this and can't stand the heat, don't stay in the kitchen.
ESG: Time for action not words
Oped, Renaud Meyer, Published on 28/12/2023
» Not a week goes by without an ESG meeting, a CEO summit, a sustainability expo. This flurry of events highlights how much the business context has changed in the last decade and is set to change further in the coming years as stakeholders bring their growing influence to bear. Consumers, employees, and other economic actors, especially millennials, are becoming more environmentally and socially conscious. Not only are they increasingly holding companies to account for their performance on various socioeconomic issues, but they are also voicing their expectations for companies to contribute to solving the most complex challenges of our time in view of supporting the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
