When I was last in MBK center in January 2006, the disabled-accessible restroom was labeled the "Cripples room." It seems a lot of progress could be made in adopting more sensitive language. But then, I'm from California.

In English or Thai? Sometimes they just translate directly word by word to English without knowing what is politically correct or word sensitive.
