Thaivisa News Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Bangkok: The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration has instructed its security officers guarding 34 BMA parks around the capital to patrol the parks more frequently to prevent students and other park goers from drinking and having sex. Suwaporn Jermrangsi, the director of the Environment Department, said the instruction has been given following reports that students were seen kissing and hugging in several parks. Many park goers have also been spotted drinking in the compounds, Suwaporn said. [Photo credit: Naew Na] Suwaporn admitted that it would be hard to monitor teenagers from behaving improperly in the parks but the security officers have been instructed to keep special watches on young couples who enter the parks. He said the officials could not closely monitor the park goers for fear of violating their privacy and other park goers did not want to get involved by reporting the incidents to the authorities. Suwaporn said if the officials found the couples acting improperly red-handed, they would give them verbal reprimands. “But most of them would deny that they had done anything wrong. We don't have evidence,” Suwaporn said. He said the laws against public indecency acts have too lenient penalties. In some cases, the BMA security officers had to call police to arrest the couples who refused to heed the warning, Suwaporn added. “I hereby affirm that the BMA has not ignored the issue because it is important. If we do nothing, the Thai culture will get deteriorated. We must the best way to prevent it. Now, the security officers will patrol the parks more frequently,” Suwaporn added.

lildragon Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Fighting to stop these kids growing up and discovering themselves will only make them rebel against it more. Obviously bonking in public isn't exactly ideal. But surely there are bigger issues at hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WitawatWatawit Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Think out of the box, BMA. Separate parks for males and females. Simple, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerry921 Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 This will lead to an increase in teen pregnancy - because it's much easier for girls to end up pregnant when they're encouraged to make out with their boyfriends in private. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SABloke Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 This is great news (the part about there being 34 parks in BKK that is) I'm honestly surprised. Does anyone have a list as I can only think of 4 (counting Suan Rotfai, Chatuchak and The Queen's park as one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CantSpell Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 (edited) Soon to announce as new policy to monitor the bears in the woods.... Can't have natural things happen in natural areas, can we?? Or is that BMA announcement an idea from TAT to increase hotel revenues. "Stop hugging in the park youngsters, get real in an hotel room!!" might be a new campaign..

rijb Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 In some countries, parks have poop bags for owners to pick up after their dogs. Here, they could have condoms for 'lovers' in the park. Then again, maybe the poop bags might be more useful, for certain tourists... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiddlesticks Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Next they will ban sex in the grocery stores, the wats, the malls! Where will it end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h90 Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 So in the park you can't drink, you can't smoke you can't have sex.... In the temple you can at least smoke. In the Christan ones at least you can drink So the park is the most restricted place. Specially the no smoke no drink doesn't make any sense.

Jeremy50 Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Thai couples getting butt naked and having sex in a park seems most unlikely and really implausible . Thais are far too coy for that, and Thai parks are rather sweaty and insect ridden for an enjoyable coupling 'au nature'. If you want to see young couples go at like rabbits. almost oblivious to passersby, and the inevitable voyeurs who spring up around such activity, go to the big Italian city parks - Parco Forlanini in Milan for example.

willyumiii Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 "reports that students were seen kissing and hugging in several parks" This is the only mention of any physical contact in the post. Does the BMA consider kissing and hugging " having sex"?? If so, many parents need to be jailed for having sex with their children....INCEST!!! Thai - style!

willyumiii Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 " If we do nothing, the Thai culture will get deteriorated" This is so confusing to me! I thought Thai culture was all about doing nothing. And now this statement??? Mai Pen Rai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
