webfact Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Yingluck slammed for changing clothes too many times in one dayBy Coconuts BangkokBANGKOK: -- As the head of Thailand’s government, Yingluck Shinawatra is tasked with representing her nation, cabinet and party at public events. In addition to achieving certain political ends, looking elegant is another requirement of her job.However, Yingluck came under fire this Tuesday for making what some described as excessive changes to her wardrobe. Critics of Yingluck’s behavior pointed out that Thailand was facing an electricity shortage. Wearing too many outfits in a matter of 24 hours would mean that undo resources might be devoted to her dry-cleaning.Her Tuesday clothing schedule was as follows:9am: Yingluck started off the day with a grey Thai silk shirt and skirt of the same color, which she wore to meet with Miss Grand Thailand 2013 candidates and officials from the Ministry of Social Development and Social Security. 12pm: After lunch, she changed to a shirt in pink and yellow stripes with a red skirt to attend the 23th anniversary event of Khaosod newspaper.Full story: http://bangkok.coconuts.co/2013/04/11/yingluck-slammed-changing-clothes-too-many-times-one-day-- Coconuts Bangkok 2013-04-12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Credo Posted April 12, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted April 12, 2013 This lady can't win for losing. My reaction is that anytime a politician is changing clothes, getting a haircut, sitting on the toilet (without a mobile phone), they are not causing any damage to the country. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post jamhar Posted April 12, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted April 12, 2013 Come on folks. PM Y is low lying fruit. You dont have to invent stuff to criticize of her. She does fine on her own. Coming up with this kind of sh*t only reduces the impact of legitimate concerns, and reduces the credibility of the reporting. Hell i change cloths 2 - 3 times a day just because of musk and sweat. If you don't, i hope you buy antiperspirant and deodorant in bulk! I will say that she could have avoided all this by having multiple copies of the same outfit, and therefore she can look fresh without looking like she changed cloths. Like I believe most other politicians do in the more developed countries. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post arthurboy Posted April 12, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted April 12, 2013 And in the meantime, while corruption, political deception and subterfuge, violence in the South and general all round thievery etc. etc. remains the order of the day, we get this. What ever happened to the people who enslaved and tortured the little Karen girl? Oh, I forgot. that story lost its shock horror value long ago and has since fallen off the socially responsible media radar. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NongKhaiKid Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Truth to this story or not it does seem Yingluck puts more into looking good in public than to her job, well that's when she's actually in the country. I suppose it doesn't matter too much though as she's only a puppet anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chooka Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 (edited) Oh please, people will attack her about anything. Now it is attacking her for dressing to suit a particular event. To stop all the whiners and detractors maybe she should just dress in jeans 24/7 oh no wait then people will complain because she doesn't dress to suit the occassion. Is she any different when it comes to this compared to any other official in any other place of the world? Julia gillard probably changes her clothes more time per day than Yingluk does.

DP25 Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 I don't see any quotes from Thais, especially important political leaders, 'slamming' anything. Seems like a fluff article, either solely to create controversy and draw page hits, or designed to deflect criticism by characterizing critics as superficial. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never heard anyone question the dress sense or lack of it of male politicans anywhere in the world.Does anyone ask how many times Thaksin changes his bullet proof mudmee silk shirt every day?

The story is a complete nonsense. Who is it who has actually slammed the PM for changing so many times in one day? Ploppy son of Ploppy? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
