webfact Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Culture Ministry Invites Thais to Dress Traditionally for Loy Krathong BANGKOK (NNT) - The Ministry of Culture and partner organizations will hold an event on the 31st of October, to celebrate the Loy Krathong Festival and is inviting Thai people to wear Thai traditional clothes to represent the beauty of Thai culture. The event will be held with new normal procedures being observed, in order to prevent the virus spreading. By holding the event in a large and open area and with screening checkpoints, the ministry can ensure the safety of the attendance. The event organizer will also raise the safety of transport by establishing a center that is responsible for marine traffic. The center will deploy officers at the piers to facilitate the passengers and prevent accidents due to busy marine traffic. The event will also prohibit fireworks or any source of fire such as floating lanterns as they might cause fires in the community. The event will be held randomly at 10 piers around Bangkok; for more information please contact the Ministry of Culture’s hotline 1765. -- © Copyright NNT 2020-10-21 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the real Thai traditional. The puritanical is just a BS by the Chinese imports that unfortunately rule the country now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phantomfiddler Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 In the early eighties literally tens of thousands of elaborately dressed Thai ladies thronged the streets of Pattaya, especially Beach Road, for this festival. Last year I saw 2 people, a sad reflection on these changing times ???? Is it just me, or have we entered an era where there is not a lot to feel happy about. Personally I felt elated when Khun Anand Panyarachun held the reins ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Misterwhisper Posted October 22, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 22, 2020 Funny how they always stress "traditional clothing" when in fact they refer to the formal attire of the aristocracy. "Traditional clothing" for the vast, vast majority of ordinary Thais of both sexes in those days meant little more than a loin cloth. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
