It would be remiss of New Mandala not to join the many others who have congratulated Amy Chanthaphavong on her selection as Miss Asian America. She is the first Lao to wear this crown.

There are times when pithy, insightful comments are simply not needed.

It would be remiss of anyone in lock-step with Thai culture not to uncritically applaud the superficial.

Please note: New Mandala encourages vigorous debate. However, for the moment we will only be publishing high-quality comments that make original contributions to discussion. There will, of course, still be space for pithy, humorous, eccentric and cheeky input. Short and sweet will usually trump long and involved. Repetitive ranting, unimaginative point-scoring and idle abuse will not be entertained. Comments which carry a real name are also more likely to be approved. Thank you for your ongoing interest and contributions.
