In this issue: Supinya Acquitted! Media reform activist Supinya Klangnarong and the Thai Post newspaper have been acquitted of libel against media giant Shin Corp in a Bangkok Criminal Court. WACC has supported Supinya, a WACC-Scholar, since the libel suit was filed against her two years ago after asking in an interview, published in the Thai Post, if Shin Corp had a mutually beneficial relationship with the Thaksin administration. Also in this issue: WACC honours Mike Traber. In a moving ceremony held on Saturday 11 March in Switzerland, WACC conferred honorary life membership on Michael Traber.

The overwhelming majority of the Palestinian polls in the pre-election period were deceiving. They forecasted more or less 40% of the votes for the ruling party Fatah, 40% for Hamas and around 20% for the 4 small “independent” or “leftist” parties combined. With such an outcome, everyone would have been happy.

I ran as a Fatah candidate in the January 25th Palestinian parliamentary elections and I won the trust of my people for one of the two Christian seats from Jerusalem.
