Samui residents angry over naked foreign tourist hugging 'Hin Ta'

By The Nation

 

 

Samui residents are calling on police to locate and arrest a naked foreign tourist who was photographed hugging Hin Ta rock, which is regarded by local residents as a symbol of Koh Samui in Surat Thani.
 

The photos show the unidentified woman walking around and hugging the rock, which resembles a phallus, to pose for photos. They were posted on the Facebook group of local residents.

 

The residents called on police to locate and arrest the woman for committing a disrespectful act to the spirit of Hin Ta, which they believe is haunted by the spirit of an old man.

 

Local residents erected the Hin Ta and Hin Yai shrine for grandpa and grandma spirits.

 

Local vendors said they want police to locate and bring the foreign woman to apologise to the shrine as soon as possible.

They really love to be offended don't they?  The rock most likely got a bit harder from the embrace, they should thank her.

"Local residents erected the Hin Ta and Hin Yai shrine for grandpa and grandma spirits."

   I'm absolutely amazed that a community would build such a monument (which would be offensive to many in itself) and then be offended by the actions of this person. The phrase "They were asking for it" comes to mind.

   I had always thought that this was a natural rock formation. Even it is was, consideration should have been given to demolishing it if you want your area to be treated with respect.

 Instead, I now learn that this is a man made structure, and now the locals feel offended when people act like this....come on...get real?

Meanwhile, if you erect a huge plastic dildo in your garden, you would be arrested.

The world would be a better place if everyone weren't so <deleted> sensitive.

It is a natural rock formation, the shrine is by the walkway.

ERECTED, strange...

Put your clothes on, skank.

Local residents "offended" 

 

[utalkin2me]

If I ever get out of my chair, stand up, find and dial a phone number to complain about something like this, just shoot me because it’s already over.

I would be more concerned if she was hugging Hin Yai rock.

Thai Visa exists largely for offended, upset, annoyed farang to moan about everything. Now we have a thread that contains mostly posts by farang offended and moaning about other people being offended and moaning.

[Psimbo]

Large phallus not offensive, just funny. Person hugging large phallus- baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad.

 

Lets prioritise the grief fest folks.

I would say most of us are amused, not offended.

And it's peppered with those who love it here and enjoy pulling the frayed strings of those who are easily offended, upset and chronic moaners.

Snapped this pic of the misses sitting on a giant nutsack in Phuket.  Didn't get much press though.

I get offended, when walking a market with my 4 years old son and being invited to a Ping Pong show. What are they going to do about that?

They're talking about a dick-shaped rock, yes.

[SpeakeasyThai]

I initially got offended when they padded my beer bill out but i didn't feel the need to broadcast it. Got over it and then paid as I ordered every  beer. Thais seem to struggle to adapt to new situations, most likely as they have never been invaded thus never  had to adapt.

[Xaos]

So they want woman to apologize to a cock rock?

[NextStationBangkok]

Well done!

 

So, someone noticed the rock solid performance through zoom lenses ?

I beg to differ....

[DM07]

Thais must be the easiest offended people in whole wide world!

Only when THEY offend someone (Hitler murals and Hitler-themed parades), it is all "mai bpen rai"!

BREAKING: Shock at cock rock - lady does mock <deleted>!

[banagan]

This case will never stand up in court :D

[Benmart]

Seems the anger could be directed at the rampant corruption in their backyards.
