Graffiti

Thailand is not famous for its graffiti. Often there is little of it, certainly compared to my home country of the UK. A tropical outdoors lifestyle means seeing eyes are usually witnessing most things going on. I also imagine the cost of spray paint etc. deters most juvenile delinquents.

What I have seen is mostly unimaginative e.g. someone's nickname, Lek loves Kai, or uniquely Thai, the name of a technical college.

However on Saturday, some graffiti on a toilet door at a Kampaeng Phet restaurant amused me. "Need gay sex? Call one of these numbers 085-xxxxxxxx 081-xxxxxxx. Ask for General Prem or his son-in-law, Aphisit."

Thailand is known for their street artists because they are very talented. You do not sound like you understand that hip-hop is culture Born and raised like me in New York. So really Uk is not known like America is known for graffiti. You must not get around much if you don't see any masterpieces when your driving doen the street??. You must stay inside most of the time. But I agree, not funny at all..

On the subject, does anyone know what the 'BNE/King BNE/BNE was here' stickers and graffiti all over Thong Lo, Phrom Pong, Ekamai are all about?

I was looking up that BNE stuff myself on the internet recently thinking it was some Thai political party or something. But the strange thing is nobody knows what it is or who's doing it. It's appearing in cities all over Asia and the US. Put it into google and there are some news articles about it on You Tube and stuff.
