Thais Sceptical of Celebrity Endorsements, Survey Reveals
A recent poll conducted by the National Institute of Development Administration (Nida) has revealed that a significant number of Thais are sceptical about celebrity endorsements. This dip in trust comes at a turbulent time following the iCon scam, which has heightened consumer wariness. The survey, conducted from October 15-16, interviewed 1,310 Thais aged 18 and over, spanning various educational and occupational backgrounds. The aim was to assess public opinion on the influence of celebrity endorsements on their purchasing decisions. Results show that 42.21% of participants felt no impact from celebrity endorsements on their buying choices, while 22.98% were significantly influenced. A smaller segment, 19.01%, admitted to a moderate impact, and 0.31% were either unsure or indifferent. When questioned about the authenticity of celebrities or influencers using the products they endorse, 52.29% doubted their genuine use. Only 3.89% believed these celebrities really use the products in their daily lives. This illustrates a prevailing scepticism among consumers regarding the authenticity of such promotions. The poll further delved into perceptions of promotions with heavy discounts or freebies. Over a third, 34.12%, associate these offers with low product quality. Meanwhile, 30.23% view them merely as marketing strategies. In terms of seeking assistance when deceived or treated unfairly in transactions, 24.81% of respondents would turn to the press for help, closely followed by 23.05% preferring to report to police stations, reported Bangkok Post. The findings of this survey highlight a growing distrust among Thais towards celebrity endorsements, reflecting a broader demand for authenticity and transparency in advertising. As consumers become more discerning, brands may need to rethink their marketing tactics to build and maintain trust. File photo for reference only. // Picture courtesy: appdisqus -- 2024-10-21 -

If Trump is re-elected what does it say about the I.Q of the average American?
I also think schoolboys who’ve been transgender operated on by their teachers should be allowed to dress as cats and use cat litters in the girls ‚bath’room. -

Man Climbs High-Voltage Pylon Due to Stress, Rescued by Locals and Police
A distressed father, upset with his daughter, climbed a high-voltage pylon in a rural area of Ayutthaya province. The man, identified as Mr. Juk, aged 62, was found holding the pylon, exhausted, while local residents and rescue workers tried to calm him down. The incident took place on October 19, in Moo 11, Khao Mao subdistrict, Uthai district. The Phutthaisawan Foundation's radio center in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya received a call and quickly dispatched rescue teams to the scene. When they arrived, a large crowd had gathered to watch the tense situation unfold. Rescue workers from the foundation, together with local residents, shouted words of encouragement to persuade Mr. Juk to come down safely. He was sitting on the pylon, dangling his legs and appearing extremely weak. The area around the base of the pylon was overgrown with grass, complicating rescue efforts. Fortunately, a nearby Provincial Electricity Authority (PEA) team noticed the incident and brought a crane with a workers cage to assist. After over 30 minutes of persuasion, Mr. Juk, though visibly fatigued, began to climb down. However, due to his old age and physical weakness, he struggled. Rescue personnel then used the PEA's crane and cage to safely bring him down. Mr. Juk was immediately taken to a nearby hospital for medical care. When questioned, Mr. Juk, who works as an undertaker, revealed that he was deeply stressed and upset with his daughter, which led him to climb the high-voltage pole with the intent of ending his life. Thankfully, the quick response from the community and rescue teams averted a tragedy. Amnat Jangtrong, a Phutthaisawan Foundation officer, explained that he was alerted by the radio centre and rushed to the scene. Upon arrival, he saw Mr. Juk lying across the pylon. Together with locals, they tried to talk him down but were unsuccessful until the PEA team intervened. Mr. Juk, clearly exhausted, was safely rescued before the situation escalated into a tragedy. Authorities are investigating the incident further. Picture from emergency responders. -- 2024-10-21 -
