Breaking my Twitter hiatus to share my short piece published via @newmandala, "Nusantara: the city that never was," based in part on my recently completed doctoral thesis. It should be of interest to #indonedianstudies and #urbanstudies scholars alike.

@sstrangio I agree with the aesthetics but the ethical bag of worms that this project opens up can't be ignored. It seems to be the latest and also worst form of influence peddling in Trump 2.0.
Every day, people are quietly dying in #Myanmar. On the battlefield, in monasteries being bombed, and in prisons. I know that it is only 1 of many conflicts, but the int'l community has a moral responsibility to do more. Now.

@raulpacheco I've noticed many drivers in Jakarta (and sometimes Singapore) rely on Google Maps because they trust it more than the platform. In Jakarta, they also frequently rely on their own embodied knowledge, but that's extremely rare in Singapore where map data is more reliable.
Call for abstracts by 31 Jan: Rising Scholars Workshop on Comparative Politics in Latin America at Nuffield College, Oxford on March 10-11! 2-day event for early career scholars to workshop their papers with senior discussants. Please share widely.
@NimrodAndrew With the number of senior commanders that have been retired or jailed, it's hard to see anyone stepping up and getting rid of him. But we are in uncharted territories so you never know; its in the SAC's own interest if they want to survive in any way shape or form.
Update: we are just about to reach halfway to our target🎉 Please donate and/or share today and help transform a #Myanmar#migrant workers life today!
