It is the Thai Ministry of Culture or the Culture Watch Centre (CWC). It is about something I don’t like and think that it is for absolute wankers, idiots and people who need to get a life, that being “planking.”
Planking is this new fad where wankers lay flat on something, a young person in Australia died when he fell from a balcony trying to plank, a senseless death and just what can happen to people who engage in such moronic activity.
Okay, you get my take on planking. Well the CWC also do not like it, well nude planking that is. Apparently some nude planking pictures have made their way to the WWW and the CWC have taken offence.
It is not illegal to nude plank in private places but people could be charged under the ridiculous Computer Crimes Act 2007 the director of CWC said.
I have not seen any of the nude planking pictures (tried to find them in the name of research) but cannot imagine them to be overly explicit. They would not be worse than the pictures of
How about the CWC hit the newspapers and other publications that seem to think that pictures of death need to grace the front pages of every Thai publication, but again this is Thai culture, to be insensitive and have no respect for the privacy of families that have lost loved ones.
The CWC seems to be filled with old and outdated prunes that need to be thrown out as they have gone well past their used by date. The CWC often makes the news and is ridiculed by Thai reporters and their conservative ideas.
Not long ago there was a small uproar about tattoos, foreigners having Buddha images and other religious images in inappropriate places. When first reported in newspapers it was said that tourists that had such tattoos in the wrong places would not be allowed to enter Thailand, but this was just sensationalism.
But the CWC do want foreigners to stop having these images tattooed on their bodies, especially in places deemed inappropriate. I agree with the CWC here and tattooist need to stop placing these images in disrespectful places.
But when the CWC start to threaten to report people to the national police office and ask the Information and Communication Technology Ministry to block websites that display such images, they have again gone too far.
A young 20 year old from the Netherlands in Chiang Mai wanted to do some planking when pissed, she decided to climb into a car rental place, but as she was climbing across the roof some tiles broke and fell hitting cars. A security guard who was amazingly not asleep or drunk detained her until police arrived.
This girl is an idiot, no doubt about it, but she offered compensation to the company but they have refused. They want her charged and dealt with by the courts. Geez, this is so un-Thai. Thai people can forgive murderers (this is a link to a story of a 26yo who murdered an 8yo girl for a 500 baht phone and the parents forgave her), rapists and other such scum but this company and its foolish owner cannot give this girl a break. Please pull your head out of your ass.
And the latest story of
If this is the worst thing monks can do, then I am pretty happy compared to many of the stories on the saffron robe wearers are usually much more juicy.
All in all, plankers are wankers and as long as they are not hurting anyone, destroying property, endangering the public I could not care less about them. If they break laws and endanger people then kill them, okay maybe not kill them, just beat the living shit out of them, okay maybe a kind word in their ear about being appropriate.
Holy crap, I have an idea. Send them on a month long community service programme at the CWC, I am sure that would be enough to straighten their life out until the day they are buried in the ground or burnt at the stake.
I must go as I am going to email the CWC with my idea.
