Dozens of Thai protesters and police were injured in violent clashes at an anti-government rally on Sunday. Police also acknowledged firing rubber bullets for the first time since protests started last year. reut.rs/3r6OTqi

So excited and proud of the current cohort for bringing more public policy conversation grounded in the Global South context!

The rich sin and the poor die. “While fraternization between the classes happens in brothels, the virus has no socially-constructed limitations. The glass ceiling may limit social mobility but it does not stop the virus.” #คลองเตย #เรื่องเล่าเช้านี้ thaienquirer.com/27101/opinion-…

One thing I was very glad to hear from VP Leni Robredo was how crucial working with civil society is. It is not something we discussed enough in our MPP classes but certainly true in my work life!

This is absurd. The Thai authorities have made a mess of vaccine procurement and curbing the latest outbreak - yet they still think, against all evidence, that closing public parks will help. People have been restricted for months and are now locked down - they need open space.

So pertinent as we continue to unpack what a Human Rights Based Approach to digital (government) transformation entails, including in international development. For e.g., what should service offers & interventions from development partners like UNDP Thailand focus on?

Sometimes I wonder if I did my MPP a year too early! Excited to see such an integrated policy problem tackled by this year's cohort with none other than UN Development
