@OxbridgeEmirati has a great panel on Social Distancing in the Gulf with @vanish_forever among others with Hala Ali moderating it. Chatham House Rules apply. Some spaces are vital.

Workers Party expands its footprint and the opposition sends a message. Singapore politics is not boring any longer.

A significant development to see my name co-authored with esteemed senior scholars in a journal.

Thank you very much for the opportunity Prof Koel from my undergraduate alma mater BIT Mesra (i studied at their Oman Campus) to share my two cents on a relevant scholarly intervention.

The writing has been on the wall for a decade post Arab Spring, Nationalisation programs, 2014 oil crash etc.

Dr. @Dr_Ulrichsen spoke on the Qatar Crisis with Prof @SinGulfura and Prof @abaabood at @MEI_NUS in a much awaited talk. Pandemic, Economic contraction and the Geopolitics of the region makes this conversation much needed.
