No evidence of bias here

Re: "Bias allegation deserves response", Letters, November 1.

 

It is indeed a tragedy for Thailand’s disgraced ex-prime minister that the stable of English-language newspapers in Thailand does not seem to laud him. One must ask whether it is a cruel perversion of reality, or something much simpler. Perhaps there is an answer, of sorts, to Thaksin’s predicament in the title of the very Forbes article Mr Dunn refers to: “Thaksin in Exile: Advising Sister, Digging for Gold”. For my part, I see no bias in the way The Nation approaches this topic or the many others you seek to illustrate and illuminate for the benefit of your readers.
