Thai journalist Supalak Ganjanakhundee of The Nation will offer perspectives on the implications of Burma's reforms for Thailand, and a new short film from Women's League of Burma will also be screened. Discussions on the value of the reforms we have seen thus far, as well as what changes still need to be realized, will follow.
