Re: "Promotions pose test for Thai lecturers", (Opinion, Aug 14, 2020)
As usual, the root cause of failure in a Thai institution is the refusal of some to admit the free, open discussion necessary to identify failures, weaknesses, abuses, corruption, fake claims, moral stagnation and all the rot that inevitably seeps in when free speech is suppressed to protect that which fools argue cannot stand on its own two feet, so must be propped up by brutish dictate. Nothing could be more anti-academic, or less in accord with the good morals of democracy, or opposed to good morals generally. In other words, another Thai institution is corrupted with all the malaise against which the youth of Thailand is rightly protesting.
