New Publication. Although the May 1992 Memorial was not included in my dissertation due to the scope and limitations of my research, I felt the need to write about it to acknowledge the significance of the May 1992 People's Uprising in Thailand. Here's the link: doi.org/10.69598/naj....

#AndSoItBegins is one of those movies that I initially hesitated to watch at the cinema. It's on my list of films (Lahn Mah included) that I've been avoiding, fearing that it might trigger some emotions. 🥹
