Biographical Information

Where do I live? I live in Bangkok in Thailand.

How many languages do you speak? I speak, read and translate Burmese. I speak English and some Thai.

Areas of Expertise

I work at the Bangkok Post newspaper in Bangkok in the education department. I make extensive use of Wikipedia references everyday in the English language reading lessons using business news.

I have taught macroeconomics, microeconomics, and economic history at the university level. Wikipedia can be of great use in rural areas because libraries in rural areas usually do not have many books.

I worked seven years as a computer consultant customizing the accounting and payroll systems of large corporations. I program in Ruby, Perl, Python, and PHP. I use these scripting languages because I need to write short, quick programs that solve specific small problems.

Special Wikipedia Interests

As a writing teacher for many years in Asia, I am also interested in quick and easy citation systems that I can insist that students use habitually like Harvard referencing that make it easy for students to cite sources, acknowledge sources, and most importantly, avoid plagiarism.
