Serendipity24 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 The pretties are getting punished because a lot of them are not only trying to sell cars but their bodies too.If you are not aware of what really goes at that motor show...you will be surprised that there are more pretties bought than the cars itself.

Johnnie99 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 "they have clearly violated the law",,,, And I thought it was up to a judge to decide if the law has in fact been violated and not some bureaucrat, And don't share the photo's or you'll in violation of the computer crimes act... Anyone got a copy of this well beaten widely use act so as one can learn of it's parameters so as to avoid being is said violation, don't wanna take any chances now. Who'da thunk?

EyesWideOpen Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 The pretties are getting punished because a lot of them are not only trying to sell cars but their bodies too.If you are not aware of what really goes at that motor show...you will be surprised that there are more pretties bought than the cars itself. I read an article about the pretties or promotion girls as they are commonly called a while ago. First I was stunned by how little money they were paid. And in the interview part with them, they were complaining about all the people who wanted to buy sex from them. Not sure if that was a perk of the job, or a disgusting thing they had to do.....

monkeycountry Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I don't think the Thai culture ministry have ever been involved in even one case where they did not come out as complete idiots. Thailand as a whole would be much better off, if the culture ministry was simply closed once and for all. I am sure the current laws regarding indecent exposure, public nudity etc. can handle pretty much any such case without any help from the culture ministry. I do feel sorry for the people working at the culture ministry though. They all sit in an office all year doing nothing, just waiting for Songkran and the annual motorshow, so they can complain and sue someone and thereby prove to their bosses that there is still a reason to keep them around.

KBTexas Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Yupha Thaweewatanakijboworn, director of the Culture Watch Office First off, it is very telling that such an office exists, and does remind us that the Orwellian vision is still alive and well. WAR IS PEACE FREEDOM IS SLAVERY IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH Secondly, I Googled Bangkok motor show body paint to see what the fuss was about, and it would seem that every model there (at least in the Google pics) were covered, although some other Asian motor shows were a bit less strict about art. Fully covered? No, but the supposed 'naughty bits' were not on display without a LOT of imagination. None of these I saw would have offended even if I had had my grandkids with me, but then I am not a knee jerk reactionary about 'moral' issues.
