TPI Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Surely there must be some prohibition in the Thai culture about "naked animals " planking? There's a prohibition about everything else...naked in the shower, showing "flesh" at the beach, eating a hamburger or fried chicken with your fingers!

themockrat Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 BREAKING NEWS The Ministry of Culture has said that due to the heavy criticism in the recent days, nude planking would be allowed in Thailand as long as they are fully clothed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tragickingdom Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Wow, running a brothel with underaged girls is also a legal offense, though if it belongs to a minister of commerce it suddenly becomes a legitimate business. Grow up ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanLaew Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 <deleted> is 'a legal offence' ?! If it's illegal, it's an offence. How can an offence ever be legal? Only in Thailand maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samuian Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Nude planking photos? Never even heard of that. Someone post a link. As far as the tourist? The is company pressing charges Right... an example must be made! What a load of crap. She made a mistake and offered to pay. A chewing out from the coppers along with payment for the damages is enough. TheWalkingMan If she was Thai thats exactly what shed get. Its the same mentalilty that charges a Thai 30 baht for noodle soup and a farang (me) 50 baht. What Thailand needs is a complete boycott on tourism for one year - then they might stop this two tier system which CERTAINLY would be allowed in western countries. You may have been convinced that their poverty SHOULD allow them to do it - personally after seven years here I cant accept it. Its rude, its insulting and its wrong. Off topic - not really - if youre going to discuss the tourist planking affair, you have to mention the reasons behind her treatment. Nothing will ever convince them, none, if boycotted they will say "obsessedby an evil spirit, to want to harm them..."they are the best and most innocent godliest people in the entire universe and yes they are right! it's a nut house full with self centered egoists, who are trained to only love and support themselves, however, wherever, whenever, the "rest" is just unworthy because they "don't understand because they aren't Thai!"...! Some and luckily not all, are dead serious about it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TackyToo Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Lara Louise Pland Saen, 20, a tourist from the Netherlands, climbed over the roof of a car-rent company in Chiang Mai on Sunday night in the hope of planking, but ended up breaking many roof tiles.The broken tiles fell and damaged a car parked below. A security guard quickly alerted police and Saen, who was clearly drunk, was arrested. She later admitted she was trying to perform planking and offered to pay compensation. The company, however, has refused to settle the case out of court. It has insisted that she should be charged with intrusion and causing property damage.

That's what I learned here But at least this has nothing to do with being Thai or Farang; customer is customer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are entirely within their rights to do so and easy to understand why they may wish to do so rather than simply accept compensation. .

dominique355 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Did the Ministry of Internet Censorship precise at which age it becomes criminal to post a nude picture? I lately saw a picture in the Internet of a young woman totally naked. (Well, she was 6 months old). It seems to me that the MICT and the Ministry of Culture do everything they can to discredit the Democrat led government. The Ministry of Education, in particular the Office of Basic Education has joined them too now. Time for a change? Certainly in these 3 ministries.

cup-O-coffee Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 (edited) Police Crackdown on Widespread "Nude" Planking Reveals Green Turtles as the Instigators API Wirephoto In an effort to break the chain of events that is spurring the nude "planking" craze, local and national police forces have combined efforts to crack down on what they believe to be the instigators of this heinous act; green turtles. The police are convinced that they have targeted all of the key locations of these rogues, and have initiated a nationwide dragnet along all all coastal beaches. The intention is to arrest and detain all green turtles and take them to local police stations for questioning. The guilty turtles will then be ordered to pay a fine not to exceed 1000 sand dollars, and to serve a mandatory three month sentence on beach clean up crews. One unidentified officer from within the police force is quoted as saying, "Thus far, every green turtle we have apprehended and detained does not have a passport. We do not believe these turtles are native, because our turtles would never stoop so low. Therefore, we believe these are foreign turtles. We are determined to bring an end to this intolerable, foreign behavior, because it is affecting the innocent little minds of our dear little children!". When this reporter questioned several turtles for any comments to these accusations, said turtles simply flopped their fore-flippers, worked their jaws slowly and spat out sea water. More arrests are expected. Edited June 22, 2011 by cup-O-coffee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
