A century-old Teochew shrine still stands on Block 33, Sam Yan. Its fourth-generation caretaker now faces a 122-million-baht civil-damages claim from the university's property arm. One pattern — repeated since Scala, since Sam Yan Market, since Suanluang.
Put on the clothes of a resident, a vendor, an official, an activist. At each turning point in the real timeline, you choose. The path lets you feel what that person carried — their stakes, their hesitation, the conflict they could never quite resolve.
The objective read. Move between the contested places around Sam Yan and Siam Square, each with its own timeline. Scrub through the years and watch a place's history assemble itself, event by event.
How power pulls. Twenty-four actors and eight instruments — laws, leases, awards, lawsuits. Trace how a single person, a single document, a single ruling tilts the whole trajectory.
Enter through the conflict. Four site clusters, four disputes — and the same names recur on every side. Follow the contradictions to see the tangled cause and effect underneath.
Documents, photographs, drawings — the archive's visual record. Read the case through its images, including the gaps where no image exists.
Every site here has people who saw something the archive does not yet name. If that's you — or someone you know — we are always listening for your stories.
