copndocsdad Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Student uniforms 'too sexy'Country's top two universities order clampdown BANGKOK: -- Chulalongkorn University (CU) is campaigning for students to comply with its dress code, while Thammasat University (TU) wants to the government to launch a "Social Cabinet" to tackle the issue of students wearing uniforms inappropriately. At the project launch yesterday, CU rector Pirom Kamolratanakul said wearing a Chula student uniform, the only one to be granted by the monarchy, is a privilege. TU deputy rector for student affairs Parinya Thewana-ruemitkul said the president for Network of Deputy Rectors for Student Affairs supervised the student uniform code at each university. He added that Thammasat was less strict about the uniform than some other universities, but insisted students wear "appropriate clothes" to classes. Celebrities' influence Blaming the influence of fashions worn by movie and TV stars, he urged that a Social Cabinet comprising the efforts of several ministries should be set up to help universities solve the problem. The Culture Ministry could ask celebrities to wear clothes appropriate to the time of day and occasion as well as promote good values, he added. Deputy Education Minister Chaiwuti Bannawat agreed that students need good discipline and praised universities' successful efforts in improving the standard of their students' dress. -- The Nation 2009-08-19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dakhar Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 whilst we are discussing ill fitting uniforms...... I could be wrong, but from what I have been told (and this pertains to the USA) cops wear tight clothing in order to prevent their cothing from being grabbed in a hand to hand confrontation. Regardless this is off topic and I think we should all stay on topic, because really..... it is a GREAT topic. Consideration should also be made for these poor girls that can not afford to purchase new clothes as they grow out of them. Lets not be so judgemental I am sure they feel really awkward in their tight fitting clothes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farangthai2 Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Obviously they should be stripped of their right to wear uniforms/ just the sort of purile posts that do nothing to enhance the reputation of farang in thailand that ive come to expect here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samuian Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 As the pic in Post in #60 and #63 shows - it's clearly over the top - a'hem (clear throat) .... knee line! Are they going to study and become educated in a public school or are they training for pole dancing? It has nothing to do with "Victorian"or "conservative"... it's about dress code, morale and ethics - going to school donning a school uniform should somehow express the status of the school and the students and not displaying what they "got to offer"! It's not a catwalk or model chartering agency - is it? Besides school uniforms are there to avoid exactly this kind of "competition"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronz28 Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) The uniforms are tailored and short for the hot tropical climate. No long sleeves, pant suits or coats needed in LOS. I am surprised they even get the students to wear uniforms at a university. Edited August 19, 2009 by ronz28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrtoad Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 What a ridiculous story. Who honestly cares, the fact university students are made to wear uniforms is a joke in the first place. They're meant to be young adults discovering themselves, for fuc_k sake let them discover and do something about your massive traffic problem, the rampant dumbing of trash and the polluting of water ways... Its gonna benefit a lot more than stopping a few politicians from getting hard ons and upsetting their wives... A ridiculous as this is, this particular issue comes out pretty much every year from the joke that is The Cultural Ministry. The country at present is in a right mess, and this is another way of diverting the incompetence. As far as the Cultural Ministry is concerned they need to get these press releases out on a regular basis, just to justify their jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansnl Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Is this too short? No, most certainly not! For the uniform to be called sexy, the skirts need to be at least 10 cm or 4 inches shorter. The blouse needs to let free the navel and to show a lot of cleavage (if any available) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prighas Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 The only thing that I think is sort of funny about the attire is how they use paperclips to ensure the skirt does not expose their 'treasure' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmiuc Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) Let's see.. Step 1: A few years ago(after Taksin takeover)... a 5 year plan to convert Thailand to a muslim nation... Step 2: Foreigners buying too much land, make room for the Bahrains to come and buy land and invest in Thailand... Step 3: Clothes too revealing from students in Universities...

Those will have immediate approval - I bet! Of course not. Last time a smarter, lighter and wider uniform for policemen was talked about, someone in charge declared that there was no need for a change in the uniform. The policemen were used to their ill-fitting and sweat inducing uniforms, military style boots and nice helmets. So why change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lopburi99 Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) Thailand, the country of contradictions.

Couldn't have put it better my self, i think there are far more worrying issues that need to be tackled rather than a uniform problem. and at least its "uniformed" not a designer label in sight.. so no competing for fashion awards. + the girls still look fantastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

12DrinkMore Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 When I was at uni, 50% of the girls were wearing bib and brace blue overalls with doctor martin boots?The other 50% were wearing afghan coats, hideously pink or purple cords, cheese cloth shirts with white boat/gym shoes. Both groups drank pints of beer, smoked roll-ups and thought it hilarious to fart in public. Grew underarm hair and their hygeine was more that of a drunken prop or lock forward on a bad night. Hasn't changed. Just another reason to stay away from Farangland.
