Popular Post snoop1130 Posted July 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 21, 2022 Police in the Muang district of Thailand’s southern province of Nakhon Si Thammarat have come under widespread criticism on social media for banning three food vendors from wearing dinosaur costumes as they sold food at a road intersection. According to a Facebook post yesterday by the district’s traffic police, they approached the vendors, telling them that their costumes could pose a danger to motorists and themselves, suggesting that they change what they were wearing. One of the vendors reportedly explained that his costume was just a marketing gimmick, to brighten up the atmosphere and to increase sales.

Long as they do not stand still - or dress as trees, road supports or road signs - they will be fine.

Excel Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Frankly it may more be in the public interests that rather than stopping people dressing up in costumes to catch the eye of motorists, and hence improving their incomes, that rather they banned mindless cretins donning RTP uniforms. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
