Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 16/07/2021

» While medical professionals and the public are urging the govt to provide mRNA vaccines as the main choice of inoculation to better fight the Covid-19 surge, there are also crazy claims about mRNA vaccines that express doubts over it.

HELP ME, HELP YOU

Guru, Suthivas Tanphaibul, Published on 28/05/2021

» Despite vaccine rollouts in many countries, we are still in semi-lockdown after the third wave in Thailand hit us the hardest. Many Thais are in a tight spot, struggling to earn a living or with no access to social welfare, while the road to nationwide inoculation is still has a long way to go.

Subject(s) (That) Matter

Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 24/01/2020

» Two things that recently happened made me wonder about the definition of education in Thailand. First, a uni professor in Phitsanulok drafted a new course called "My Beloved Country" but the board rejected it, saying its purpose isn't in line with that of a general education course. The professor said his subject encourages students to "understand and appreciate their own values, as well as values of others, society, culture and nature". It sounds fine and dandy until you see his list of 18 guest lecturers consisting of controversial figures, some of whom are seen as aligning themselves with the government. So, if you disagree with them, would you be considered disloyal to Thailand or something? Second, Bangkok Governor Aswin Kwanmuang ordered all schools under BMA to have their students sing the royal anthem after they sing the national anthem before classes every morning to remind them of Thailand's three pillars -- nation, religion and monarchy -- which I humbly think the kids are reminded of plenty already.
