I am not sure there are any center-left newspapers left in Thailand. The nation isn’t a rag as you claim to be. It is a reputable news outlet.
The Nation is an English-language daily online newspaper founded in 1971, published in Bangkok, Thailand. It is one of two English-language dailies in Bangkok, the other being the Bangkok Post. On 28 June 2019, it published its final broadsheet edition, leaving only its online edition.[5]
Though The Nation has a right-of-centre opinion page, which welcomed the 2014 coup and military rule, its daily news coverage is more center-left, criticizing, for example, Thailand’s lèse-majesté law.[8] According to acclaimed, left-of-centre journalist, Pravit Rojanaphruk, who worked at Nation for 23 years: “The Nation, at least during its heyday …, was a bastion of committed journalism and tolerance.” But over the past decade, it “morphed from a progressive newspapers into a coup-apologist cheerleader for military intervention,…” Pravit was fired from The Nation in 2015 after release from a three-day junta detention without charge for “attitude adjustment”, his second such detention.
Complete immunity from any and all consequences too.
