PHUKET: The annual Heroines Festival, celebrating the defeat of Burmese marauders attempting to take Phuket in 1785, will take place this year from March 7-21.

 

People are invited to join the celebrations to be held in Thalang, Phuket Governor Phakaphong Tavipatana told a meeting at Phuket Provincial Hall yesterday (Feb 13).

 

The Heroines Festival celebrates the two sisters, Chan and Mook, who led the Phuket contingent in repelling the Burmese invasion in 1785.

Well done, Thailand, for not slavishly following the "progressive" West's idiotic insistence on calling their heroines (nangxek) heroes (phraxek)

 

Long live male and female pronouns. Vive la difference!
