thailand49 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 (edited) ????I can see the Thai boys getting a real rise out of those designs if ever approved. In general the Thais now in public schools can barely afford what is required. I wonder whether Windmill girls can make a few changes with these designs?

Unless the name astudent number can be restiched, they cant be passed on. I'd prefer those ar put onto badges so they can be reomoved for the next user. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djayz Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 I think it's a great idea! Now, all we need is somebody who cares as much about the actual education these students should be getting to come along and overhaul the whole school system. Then, they'd have students who were not only smartly dressed but also actually knew something. Brilliant! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about indoctrination but underlying it's about business for the garment manufacturers... a cunning plan. It's more about a very hierarchical society with rigid codes and face thing where your acts and words have to vary a lot depending on who is your interlocutor with the uniform, you know instantly the rank in the society then you can act and speak adequatly with the person in the appropriate way The uniforms are very popular in the lowest level of the Thai workers it gives some prestige (Even a maid in an hotel is better than a farmer in the Thai eyes) and they don't have to pay for the clothes (Plus they even don't have to wonder every single day what kind of clothes to wear before to go at work) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobBKK Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 The uniforms do act as a leveller and restrict 'competition' with designer labels etc. The point being if you are rich or poor you are the same in school. I think at University the case for doing away with them is stronger but I see no harm in teaching kids that you are 'the same' no matter how much money other kids parents may have. Some kids don't even have shoes to wear let alone have to be further humiliated when their friend turns up in the latest. Also puts huge pressure on parents. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said it!! Reuters the e-pit-o-me of news. ???? The article ignores the reasoning behind school uniforms, and no it's not about "conformity". It's about reducing the 'class' system (i.e. the rich kids wear designer clothes, flouting their wealth, and poor kids in their hand me down 'plain' clothes). Real classy Reuters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
