‘Mai pen rai’ paradox: from kindness to toxic silence

Juranan Soranet, Published on 07/01/2026

In the new contentious era of geopolitical conflict and geoeconomic tension underpinned by American economic nationalism, Robinson's journalist craft over more than four decades explaining and linking Asia and the West will be sorely missed.
