APW2010: The Best and Worst of Times: Indonesia and Crises, with some Southeast Asian Comparisons
Economic crises cause serious social and economic distress, and sometimes have significant political consequences. These effects are often more severe in developing countries, because their governments are less likely to have the fiscal and institutional capacity to protect their citizens.

Frontiers of knowledge: Thailand's border patrol police in the age of Internet research

These Internet users have readily become producers of content, and the proliferation of local language material sees Thai ranked in the top 20 global Internet languages.
