(Mostly) Southeast Asian Link Dump

• “Thai democracy is in a state of immolation.” via New Mandala
• Wall Street Journal Asia has an editorial on current events in Bangkok. Here, via Bangkok Pundit
• Geoffrey Cain in Asia Times, on how Cambodia’s muslims are geopolitical pawns. Really? Or a lot of hoo-hah about nothing? Chanroeun Pa has reprinted an article by Antonio Graceffo which is slightly more thoughtful.
• The Phnom Penh Post has a few articles of interest, on the resurgence of tensions on the border with Thailand, nothing that this tension has increased enlistments in the Cambodian military, and an article lavishing praise on the  System of Rice Intensification (SRI).
• One of Cambodia’s awesome three independent unions, the Cambodian Independent Teachers’ Association (CITA), issued a forceful statement on World Teachers’ Day which attempts to use the (hilarious) rectangular strategy as a rhetorical strategy to demand increases to the salaries of teachers (which are unbelievably low). Via the Mirror.
• PBS’ Frontline has released a short, well-done, documentary on Burma’s Saffron Revolution, pointed out by New Mandala. Very worth checking out.
• Here’s a post which is not strictly Southeast Asian, but comes to us from the land of Nepal. This landscape, of human-created rice terraces, is nothing short of astonishing. Via the agricultural biodiversity weblog
