Temper tantrums in adults can, surely, be an early sign of mental illness and emotional problems. I don’t see much of that, with the people that I meet on a daily basis. The Thais are fond of smiling, or more often, merely remain silent in the face of a stubborn situation. Temper? Not much. However I […]
One can’t deny the oddity of this snapshot, which I took on a Saturday afternoon in Bangkok. The “skull” cloud seems to be peeking at the inhabitants of this city, watching… a bad omen? I don’t believe in such, but who knows. Some of my Thai friends seem to think so, wrapped up in their superstition […]
a cramp kitchen in the slum I’m back in Malaysia. Finally. Though it feels a bit odd at times, these past three days. Going through my notes and photos of my travel, Bangkok and Narathiwat. Quite a mess, and wishing I had an assistant to help me sort out the puzzle and missing pages. An […]
Sharing my thoughts… Ever since I had left Narathiwat, I grow edgy about the violent state of affairs in that province. I spent five days in the town and rural areas, talking to the people – Muslims and Buddhists alike – about their lives, their concerns, their children and their hopes. The ordinary people, not […]

Boats, silent legacy of Narathiwat Narathiwat is not just a large town. There’s a fishing village close by to the town centre. The jetty appears to be clean but there’s a strong smell of fish and salt. Many of the fishermen are waiting under the trees and in small platforms called “pondok” – away from […]
