Advertisement billboards for a dating app have now popped up in multiple provinces, including Chiang Rai, Songkhla and Pathum Thani.

 

The messages they carry are eye-catching and have become popular topics of conversation, much like those in the northeastern province of Nakhon Ratchasima, locally called “Korat”.

 

In that province, one billboard posed the question, “What is delicious in Korat?” There was a choice: “Fried Korat Noodles” or “Korat ladies”, with a checkmark next to “Korat Ladies” and a cross next to “Fried Korat Noodles”. The ads have attracted mixed reactions.

I gues the truth hurts some people.

"But she and her four colleagues, who are all members of the [Lawyers'] council, have agreed that they cast the province in a negative light and that the message in the advertisement is degrading to women, as it likens them to food, which constitutes a libel"

 

The billboards may be clever or stupid depending on your point of view, but how they could constitute "libel" is utterly beyond me.

how about some outrage about the pm2.5 killing those beautiful ladies.

 

what say ye lawyer ladies will you file a suit against your own government for negligence ?
