Sometimes people like to shock and upset other people, and other times they do it accidentally. It is a shame when people do it accidentally, so the cultural guide is not a bad idea.

I agree and a booklet on the subject would be helpful. But ya see where it is pissing me off is the government is making a big public spectacle of this publication as if the farang are at the root of the problem.

Again good point, that is her mistake and failure at showing proper respect. But how did she possibly think that such a picture would pique people's interest? It was in no way my idea. Yet I am the guy this booklet is directed toward.

How about the pictures on your cellphone background, I do not have it. Yet though there are thousands of teens in BKK alone that have that set as their background image, I AM THE GUY THE BOOKLET IS BEING PRINTED FOR??

If this isn't a switch-the-blame-get-out-of-the-hotseat and blame-the-people-who-do-not-understand-what-is-going-on game then I don't know another way to define it.
