Guru, Suthivas Tanphaibul, Published on 09/04/2023
» When it comes to Thai holiday celebrations, Songkran has the most disarming effect. By that, we mean revellers get wet and wild as they soak each other with water during the hottest month of the year. Songkran looks to come back with a vengeance too especially after a forced hiatus due to the pandemic. Guru By Bangkok Post presents a list of water festivals where you can make the most of your Songkran moments. Go wet or go home!

Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 11/03/2022
» As a result of developing panda eyes from following Tangmo's tragic saga, Russia's invasion of Ukraine (let's call a spade a spade) among other stories, I'm reminded of a few patterns that Thai media use when reporting newsworthy stories that perhaps they shouldn't.

Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 18/12/2020
» A lot has happened in 2020. From the pandemic to protests, the year has had a flurry of events, good and bad (perhaps mostly bad). Paradoxically, it seems that 2020 lasted longer than it should and we all can't wait for it to be over, but at the same time it also seemed like we just went into quarantine yesterday. We're all looking forward to the year that's ahead and leave 2020 behind, but before we do, let's take a look at the year that's been and determine which blunders, skills and mascots are worthy of recognition.
God save the revolution
Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 27/11/2020
» The latest installment in the open-world action franchise, Watch Dogs: Legion takes you across the pond to the UK. Much like its predecessors, the entire city of London is on the grid and almost everything is hackable; meaning almost everything can be under your control.
