Chulalongkorn University cancels military-critical book launch under pressure from ISOC, prompting criticism of academic freedom.

Chulalongkorn University in Thailand has canceled the launch of Dr. Puangthong Pawakapan's critical book on the military, "Infiltrating Society," under pressure from the Internal Security Operations Command. The event is now set for the Jim Thompson Museum. Critics argue this decision undermines academic freedom, as the university's administration aligns with military interests despite support from its International Relations Department.
