Inside this issue
Thailand’s neighbour Burma (or Myanmar if you prefer) has been in the news for all the wrong reasons over the last few years, and is the subject of our cover feature this month as we try to look at the country beyond the politics and poverty; sadly not an easy task.
The world is going to be dominated over the next couple of months by the Olympics in China (hopefully more by the sporting achievements than any politics) and we prelude that with the first part of our look at Olympic history, dealing this month with the ancient games through to the Second World War, with the second part next month. China is prominent this month as our Asia Times article looks at the problem of Tibet.
Martin Scorsese is the living legend film director featured in this months Arts and Culture, while The Ticket as always features film, book and games reviews, profiles of rising stars in music and acting as well as upcoming sports events, with the Tour de France weaving its way on to our pages this month. All this and a lot more in the July issue of your Observer, and watch out in August for our new weekly newspaper, AWOL, available every Friday from 1st of August, for the expat in all of us!
