Showmanship falls short
Re: ''BRN YouTube clip threatens talks'' (BP, April 29). Democrat deputy leader Thaworn Senneam said Lt Gen Paradorn Pattanatabut was wrong for publicising the peace talks before an initial agreement has been reached, and that might be quite right. There must be balance between substantive progress in private talks versus showmanship for the media. If publicity precedes any substance, then that could prevent any real progress being made.

Time running out for South
The security situation in the far South is as bad today as it has ever been. The number of militant attacks, the level of extreme violence and the flouting of the government's authority add up to a national crisis. The situation has never so clearly called for a rational, inventive policy. It is not too late to save the far South, but time and opportunity are running short.

360 degree fitness
Most people unknowingly use just one side of their body _ a right-handed person does most things using the right arm, hand, leg and foot. As a result, muscles on one side work too much, while the other side is just lazing about. This can affect overall posture and lead to a range of health problems.
