Thai Travel Blogger Apologises After Japan National Park Backlash

A Thai travel blogger living in Japan apologised after online criticism over a video filmed in Towada-Hachimantai National Park in Akita Prefecture. The footage showed her lying among white alpine flowers on Mount Komagatake, with Japanese social media users accusing her of entering a protected area and damaging vegetation. The clip, posted under her No Plan Trip travel pages, drew extra scrutiny because she has large audiences on Facebook and Instagram. She later deleted the video and issued an apology in Thai and Japanese, saying she accepted the criticism and would be more careful when creating travel content. Some Thai users said the apology did not go far enough in addressing environmental damage, while others encouraged her to learn from the backlash and continue promoting responsible travel.

This foreign troublemaker should be deported.

Thai f/wit meets Japanese culture ...

After serving her jailtime first. First offence...three years seems about right.
