    Iran's mountains won't bow to bombs (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    In some ways, the dynamics of war between the United States and Israel against Iran boil down to bombs and mountains. As long as American bombs cannot beat mountainous Iran, Tehran can hold out on terms of its choosing with time on its side. The US' awesome airpower and Iran's mountain terrain, coupled with its drone and missile capabilities alongside the positions of other major players involved, suggest this conflict at the heart of the broader contest over the reshaping of the Middle East wil

    Thai diplomacy at a crossroads (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Thailand's foreign policy is running amok in questionable directions inconsistent with its longstanding and crafty geostrategic balancing. From signing a joint statement to appease Beijing on its "reunification" with Taiwan and criticising a United Nations special rapporteur on his assessment of the Thai-Cambodian border situation, the Anutin Charnvirakul-led government has extended an undue red-carpet treatment to Min Aung Hlaing, who stole Myanmar’s democratic elections in November 2020 by sei

    Asean's next security challenge is cyber (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    It is not easy to imagine that our online activities carry intensifying and proliferating risks. Scam networks in mainland Southeast Asia that have preyed on many thousands of hapless citizens worldwide and thereby plagued the Asean region are just one of these risks. More potent are the cyber operations perpetrated by government and non-government actors against each other and against individual societies. For Southeast Asia, preempting, mitigating and managing cybersecurity challenges ultimate

    The Senate and Thailand's decay (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Those who have been wondering why and how Thailand has lost its way in the world and at home should focus on what's been happening with the Senate. The current 200-member upper chamber mandated by the 2017 constitution, drafted and promulgated under a military government following the May 2014 military coup, is an apt prism to see how this country has become so rotten. Addressing the corrosion will require redrafting the constitution while unrigging and reshaping the political system to promote

    Asean's risks by re-engaging Myanmar (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Min Aung Hlaing, Myanmar's erstwhile senior general who seized power in February 2021, is on the move. After ramming through shoddy elections with patchy electoral participation last December and January, he now dons civilian garb as post-election president and was received on official visits by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping in June. With a similar state visit to Laos in early July and prospectively to Thailand in August, Min Aung Hlaing is on a diplomatic
