State your vote
Guru, Worada Elstow, Published on 20/05/2022
» It's been nine years since Bangkokians were able to use their voices to elect a governor of their choice. The time has come, for us to vote in the hope of a better Bangkok. However, if you're still on the fence or in the dark about the candidates and their key policies, allow Guru to shine some light on the six leading candidates, according to the Nida poll.
Rethinking Election Posters
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 08/04/2022
» The English idiom goes "Don't judge a book by its cover" but I'll say "Let's judge candidates running for Bangkok governor by how they put up their posters". It's a mouthful but I think it's a legitimate point to ponder.
A fight on all fronts
Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 13/08/2021
» It sucks that we are still in the throes of this pandemic, that people are suffering in all kinds of ways because of it, that incompetence rules the roost when it comes to handling the crisis and it sucks that we are still moaning about it. Though we at Guru have listed things to make lockdown bearable and listed how you could help those in need, it's time to hear from of some the city's professionals on how the state of things has affected their lives.

Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 04/09/2020
» #IfThaiPoliticsWereGood returned as a trending hashtag on Twitter earlier this week. The heavy rain may help give it a boost as people have taken to it to air grievances about the status quo, paint an ideal picture of Thailand and even made light of Thai politics. Here are a few memorable ones for your entertainment (and commiseration).
Memorable MPs
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 02/08/2019
» The two-day policy announcement by the new government may leave you with mixed emotions, memes, analysis, amusing moments and trepidation of what's to come. Consider this a prelude of what we all can expect from the future assembly of our representatives, dear readers. Therefore, allow me to recap in gist, IMHO, the most memorable members of Parliament -- for better, worse or fun.
How to Up Your Campaign Poster Game
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 08/02/2019
» Since you're going to turn our precious sidewalk into an obstacle course by cluttering it up with posters of your candidates, may I suggest making them memorable or amusing instead of a plain visual pollution? I delved into past examples for some tips on how you can make your posters stand out from the crowd. You're welcome.
Looking ahead
Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 05/01/2018
» 2017 was a whirlwind of a year, but we are now in the budding days of 2018 and while we realise most of us are still recovering from holiday feasting, it's time to leave the past behind and look ahead. There are a number of reasons to be excited about 2018, from concerts to (possible) developments in the city itself. To kick off our very first issue of the new year, we at Guru have compiled a list of things to look forward to in 2018. Strap yourselves in. It's gonna be one heck of a year.
