webfact Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Thai Police Warn Parents of Valentine's Day 'Dangers'By Khaosod EnglishA flower market in Bangkok on 13 Feb 2014.BANGKOK — As a part of an annual campaign to keep young people in line on Valentine's Day, the Royal Thai Police have warned parents to inform their children of the "dangers" associated with the occasion.Parents, guardians, and teachers should instruct children to be extra careful on Valentine's Day this Saturday, Pol.Maj.Gen. Patipat Suban na Aytthaya said in a press conference yesterday.“They should tell the children to be careful and take care of themselves. They should also ask for cooperation from children to avoid risky behavior on that day,"Pol.Maj.Gen. Patipat said.Valentine’s Day has become a widely-celebrated in Thailand in recent decades. According to a report compiled by Kasikorn Bank, spending around the holiday last year amounted to 1.5 billion baht.However, authorities in Thailand – a socially conservative country despite its freewheeling sex industry – frown upon the holiday, as it is perceived to encourage premarital sex. Every year, police and state agencies launch a campaign to ensure that Thai youths refrain from "inappropriate activities."Full story: http://www.khaosodenglish.com/detail.php?newsid=1423548464 -- Khaosod English 2015-02-10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

halloween Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 It may surprise some that there are always more children born worldwide in the last 6 months of the Gregorian calendar than in the first 6. Valentine's Day may well be part of the reason. Occam's razor suggests otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Commander Tamson Posted February 10, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted February 10, 2015 Have you seen the size of some of those thorns on rose stems. I say "Well done, the police!" Do the carefree, mostly uneducated, youth of Thailand know of this lurking hidden danger? Obviously not! But as ever, high ranking, RTP officers are on the case. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate to be pedantic (not really), but roses don't have thorns (despite the Poison song), they have prickles. And it is pricks the RTP are warning about. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorns,_spines,_and_prickles 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGhostWithin Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 That's rich. Worthless, corrupt hypocrites preaching "morality". Since when has it been the job of RTP anyway? Last year it was the exact same message but from the culture. Ministry. Instead of trying to "control" unplanned pregnancies within the youth many would suggest they focus more their "noble" cause on more.pmore.pressing internal matter which have a far greater impact on the country and its' poverty and education rates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patipat Suban na Aytthaya said in a press conference yesterday Please tell me that this guy is not the daddy of the woman who killed some people with her car, when speeding quite a few moons ago. Please. I don't think that there're too many with the same surname around. Does anybody remember this accident? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
