skippybangkok Posted November 7, 2006 Author Share Posted November 7, 2006 small change maybe, but the site used to change every few weeks. Too bad, used to enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khall64au Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Too busy making a living? Juggling visa issues? Dealing with their own farangaffairs in general? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulmercke Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 Yes, Farang Affairs was written by Phil McDonald (I think). I received an e-mail from him about a year ago after his two full page weekly pieces (other: On The Tiles) had been axed by The Nation I think; he mentioned that he was suing them for unfair dismissal. Again it appeared to be another case of Thais pushing foreigners out. Changing the subject - has anyone got any views on The Nation's editor Tulsit. Personally I don't like his style of writing and sometimes wonder what side he's on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insight Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 The Nation has really gone downhill recently. I once thought it was great the way it constantly stood up to Thaksin, but nowadays it's like reading a vacuum. So far they've managed to fill this void with their website anonymous poll results being a reflection of popular opinion, pictures of Thaksin moping around London and a crappy flash add which leaves a large grey rectangle when viewing with Firefox (email notifying them about this last weekend unresponded to so far). Whatever Phil is doing now, there's not much doubt it's in a better place... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
