This was a pretty calm week, even if there’s no shortage of misery in this world. Kind of like in the newspapers. A considerable time difference is making me miss hours of press time. It’s raining in England—what a surprise!—but a little more than usual, and that’s an event one cannot miss! Tahir Square is waking up, so there’s still more to go in the shadows of the Pyramids. It’s hot here in Phnom Penh, and I wish you all a good week.
