Photo from the Swedish Embassy in Thailand/Facebook Thailand signed a deal on August 25 to purchase four Gripen fighter jets from Sweden for over 500 million dollars, and the delivery could be between 2025 and 2030. Such a move has prompted outcry among Cambodians as the border conflict continues amid a fragile ceasefire. As a Cambodian, I believe no one wants to complain and ask Sweden to cancel it outright, and I understand no one has the power to do so.

The media war began almost instantly after the brief exchange of fire on May 28, which claimed the life of a Cambodian soldier, Soun Roun. What followed was not just diplomatic fallout but an escalating rhetorical battle unfolding online, with state leaders and everyday netizens trading blows across various platforms. In recent weeks, I’ve felt increasingly overwhelmed as a journalist, not by the volume of work, but by the stark realization that information warfare is now a key tactic in conflicts that extend far beyond physical borders.

My habit is quaint, I know, and there are downsides – but for those who value literature, the focus will shift to this: how do we prove we didn’t use AI? When I was very young, three or four, before I learned to write, I’d search out empty pages in my father’s thin, hardbound ledgers and out-of-date diaries, and scribble from left to right. I would sit them on an angled louvre, the humid Brisbane air drifting in, and play at writing. I think I derive some pleasure in the friction of pencil on paper itself, surfing the feint-ruled lines. There is electricity – lightning, back through memoir – that links to my early tactile sense of the world. Perhaps, eventually, we’ll be able to see AI for what it is and take solace in human traces – an interest in process and practice will deepen.
