My latest article for @Diplomat_APAC on, 'The #Squad and the #Quad: 2 Tracks of Security Cooperation in the Indo-Pacific'. I discuss the Defence Ministers' Meeting of the Squad countries on the sidelines of the 13th #ADMM-Plus👇 thediplomat.com/2026/11/the-…
The Squad and the Quad: 2 Tracks of Security Cooperation in the Indo-Pacific

The Squad and the Quad: 2 Tracks of Security Cooperation in the Indo-Pacific

The Squad should be understood not as a replacement for the Quad but as an expression of the Indo-Pacific’s increasingly layered security architecture.

It’s been two months since the USS Abraham Lincoln left #Thailand. And the topic of the day, #prostitution, is no longer in the news. But the risks to #sexworkers in Thailand remains and deserves another look. Here's a clip from my analysis back in August. asiapoliticalreview.substack…

Goodbye, @ThaiEnquirer. It has been a privilege to serve your readers and to have the editorial freedom to write what I believe matters. It’s been fun, and I’m grateful for the opportunity. Now it’s time to chart a new course and take on a new challenge. Hoping for fair winds.

Such a great speech by the new @UNSRHRMyanmar @KelleyCurrie at the UN 3rd committee, telling it as it really is in #Myanmar, not as @ASEAN apologists imagine it to be. So very important to have a SR that will speak truth to power, call out #Burma military leader Sr. Gen. (ret) Min Aung Hlaing for his rights abuses, and point out the foolishness of unprincipled engagement with that regime. Yes, I'm talking about you, @MFAThai, Laos, @Peace_Palace_KH, @MOFAVietNam & @anwaribrahim. youtube.com/watch?v=BHw-4aui…

Rest in peace, Sir Patrick Stewart, who passed away today at the age of 86. Perhaps best known for his iconic role as Captain Jean-Luc Picard, Stewart spent the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown sharing videos of himself reading Shakespeare’s sonnets. Notably, he was once joined by his neighbor’s cat Glenn who appeared unimpressed by Sonnet 40. #cat #catlovers #RIP

What a heartbreaking week it has been. Sir Patrick Stewart was a friend, a colleague, and a magnificent actor. From the stage to the bridge of the Enterprise, he brought intelligence, grace, and a deep sense of humanity to everything he did. Captain Picard stood for the best of us, and so did the man who played him. I was filled with affection and admiration for him and his work. My heart goes out to Sunny and his family. He will be deeply missed.
