BTW is this the longest 'moderator review' on record - 14 months

Ah! There's the link!

But shouldn't somebody just collect all these pictures together in one post?

It's just a thought - saves clicking from one topic to another...

Please let them wear it. Apart from the Schoolgang stories it's the only way Thai schools and universities can make it into the the international media.

It certainly will not be for the quality of their education, research or publications. If there is just 1 thing Thai students can do it's looking pretty and enjoy themselves. Please don't take that away from them, there will be nothing left.

I am working in the International Admissions and Marketing department at Payap University in Chiang Mai. I am also studying in Payap's International Business Management program at the international college. Living in Chiang Mai for the past 5 years I have seen many different variations of the standard university uniform that is discussed so frequently in this thread. As with other things that are part of the Thai environment in which I live, there is not much I can say as a foreigner, either for or against. It is part of my everyday experience in Thailand.

From what I can see, opinions aside, students are able to function in this environment and reach their academic goals.

If possible distractions have kept you from enrolling in an international program such as the one that is offered at Payap University, please be reassured that academic advisors are available to help you work thru any distractions that might hinder your academic progress.

For more information about studying in Thailand please send me a private message. I am also available to give tours of my campus to potential students. :jap:

World wide most all universities do NOT force adults to wear uniforms.

You hit the nail on the head there ..... ADULTS! In the real world, and adult is considered anyone to be over 18.

I suppose here, and in some other countries, such as the US, an idividual does not enjoy full civil liberties until they are 20/21.

But we are not talking about children here..... the girls, or should I say ladies, are of an age to be consdiered adults...... young adults yes, but adults all the same!

But lets be honest here - the reason they are "sexy" uniforms is because the young women wearing them are more often than not, very attractive. Lets be honest, young Thai women, in general, are very attrative, very slim, and downright very sezy...... I dare say that survey should have said "sexiest stuents" rather than seciest uniforms.

The original post refers to "Thai university uniforms, with its short-sleeve white blouse and short black skirt" then goes on to quote the deputy education minister calling them "revealing outfits." That is technically not correct. A short sleeve blouse reveals nothing, unless it is designed to be oversized or baggy. Similarly a short black schoolgirl skirt, as we have been seeing, reveals just a few centimetres of skin above the knee. Many girls actually wear loose knee-length skirts.So pray where is the revelation? I guess the fault finders are only being jealous of the teacher sitting across his students in the classroom. In which case it's not the the short black skirts to be blamed for revelation but the design of the benches and desks. Ahem.

Last time I walked by Victoria's Secret, they had a good selection of styles for University girls to wear.

But, I have to say, Ramkhanhang girls are very, very hot.

World wide most all universities do NOT force adults to wear uniforms. This is just a symptom of Thailands ancient mindset about how to control youth, which is utterly out of tune with world standards. Unless you couldn't forced wearing of Chadors for muslim unis.

No young girl wants to look like just another cipher in the same clothes as ALL her friends, so they use what assets they have by wearing the tightest clothes that show off what they have. If they were free to dress as they chose, in a reasonable manner, they likely would dress MORE conservatively relative to tightness and what they try and show.

The 'authorities' are clueless about all this.

Yet another farang, that wants to make Thailand just as plain dull as his home country. Keep the uniforms as they are - they are indeed sexy and much less boring than the western socalled individualized dresscode directed by the fashion industry.

Sorry mate.

But I never found American or European college student girls plain and dull. Thai young ladies will look as hot as they wish to, regardless of freedom of choice of what to wear. Most would look pretty darned hot in nothing but a garbage bag with the right belt.

You really are missing the point. If the girls want to wear the uniform they still can. it is a style. Bets on how many choose to if given the option? I love looking at the shapely ladies, I just want them to have free choice to act sexy or not sexy as they wish without arbitrary narrowness forced on them by aged and paranoid leaders

All I can say is if we had uniforms like these when I was going to Uni back then (way back) I would have 3 PHDs by now. :unsure:

You would have something to show for it, maybe not an educationrolleyes.gif

The authorities need to change with the times, stop being so prim and proper. They should be grateful to Japan for the recognitionlaugh.gif

Agreed, what do the authorities want them to wear? Kilts! (Jockanese for skirts)laugh.gif

As an instructor at a major Thai University in Bangkok, I have noticed three things:

1. The girls are always in uniform on class days. They come in wearing normal appropriate shirts and skirts in freshman summer school. These grow tighter and shorter until the senior year when many have internships that reset their idea of how to dress. The length of the high heel undergoes a similar process, but it nearly always on for presentations.

2. The boys wear the uniform in summer school and begin to change by first semester. As they seek individuality, they first go for tennis shoes, strange haircuts and black jeans. By their sophomore year, some wear typical distressed bluejeans. Sporting a neck tie means it's presentation day. Once again, internships reset the dress code in the senior year somewhat. Only the white long sleeve shirt is always on.

3. I allow the tomboys to wear the male uniform, but the male TV's never choose to wear the female uniform. That still seems to be taboo, and TV's limit themselves to sweaters, scarves and effeminate behavior . We have one katoey who began male and went female over break after second year.

I let them wear what they want as long as it doesn't disrupt class. Formal presentation days means wearing the whole uniform of their gender choice. Then even conservative girl's vamp it up while the boys look snappy and professional for once.

I would have to say that I find the Japanese "sailor" type uniforms have something going for them, personally.

I think we need lots of pictures to help us really understand the issue at hand here - lol

I agree, I'm undecided ;-)

Are these the same uniforms as in "playskool" on Nana plaza, groundfloor end right?

Don't know, I haven't been there... But...

I'm swaying more to the Japanese sailor type personally...

Not all those poor families have access to those expensive washing powders.This is what happens when you don't use Persil all the time.

I think the Japanese uniform the rest of the world is familiar with is highly stylized and over-sexualized compared to reality. Yes, I've seen plenty of pictures of real Japanese girls in real uniforms, and Japanese movies where they wear real uniforms (not porn...) and sure they're sexy. But the only thing sexy about the uniform itself is the pleated skirt - otherwise the tight-fitting Thai uniforms beat it hands-down. It's just that the girls are really cute which alters our perception of what they're wearing.

Most of the Japanese uniform photos shown here, and in the link to the second poll, are not realistic. Only a few of the Thai uniforms linked to are unrealistic, and frankly the real Thai uniforms are cuter than the fake ones.

I spent a lot of time at Chiang Mai University. There are amazingly attractive girls there, and they know how to wear their uniforms. Actually, I find the pale purple shirts they wear there much cuter than the white ones that are in all of the pictures (from Bangkok mostly). They sell uniform clothing in the bookstore there, and also in the student co-op store. But the real big business is in the market down the street from the main entrance, which is always packed with students. There are shops there with uniform-spec clothing, but in much sexier cuts.

I'm young (24) and was at CMU as a visiting science student, so I feel perfectly comfortable commenting on this (and felt perfectly comfortable mingling with the students at that market), by the way :)

My girlfriend (22) lives in Chiang Mai, but didn't go to university. She dresses about average for a young Thai girl - cute, not conservative exactly but not like a bar girl. I think most of the university girls (whom you find along Nimmanhamen in and out of uniform) dress much less conservatively than they would if they hadn't gone to university. Of course, once they get a job - which will be a much better job than if they hadn't gone to university - that will change. Just an observation, though.

BTW in response to dgotrek, I know a katoey who is a student at Chiang Mai University, and she wears the female uniform (not so tight-fitting though). Of course, she is very convincing (I didn't realize it until I was told) - the less convincing ones I could imagine deciding not to wear the female uniform.

The article doesn't differentiate between the sexes, which is a serious failing. I think I am correct in saying that it is the famale students who wear skirts and tight blouses. Therefore, I presume there is nothing wrong with the male uniform.

Furthermore, I'm confused by the uniform's description, as the only university uniform I have ever seen the length and breadth of the country is the plain white blouse black skirt.

Apart from skirt length it is not revealing, merely overly tight.

All of which as subject matter is froth. But then the Japanese are preety much a perverted lot when it comes to sexuality, with more than a passing preioccupation with underage cartoon like sex idols.

The serious concern is the demand for students to actually conform by way of uniformity. At a time when young people are being most creative and inventive, as seen in the first world, Thai youth is repressed, unable to express themselves, develop their thinking, make new discoveries.

That is what Thailand represses by way of uniform, compliance and controlled thinking. I find it appalling that droves of school kids all have the same haircut. Even worse in Thailand is the practice of young girls having their hair cut short when Thai women wear it long. Additionally, in prisons it is cut short. What is going on here?

Whereas the first world values its youth and allows freedom of expression, Thailand does not. There are mulitudinous examples of new thinking by young people that gave us Microsoft, Apple, facebook, Ipods, mobiles, Airlines etecetera. One factor was the freedom allowed for youth to express itself.

That is the real issue here. But then you need a totally free society for it to be nurtured. Hence China can only turn out robotic scientists, physicists, mathematicians and pianists. The truly creative is repressed. Whereas the free West redefines art, culture, literature through allowing all its people the right to express themselves.

But then the role of women in society here is little more than sex objects, powerless, lacking leadership roles in employment and doing very little themselves to change that. Have they got the vote here? Do they use it?

I can't see Thailand ever getting it right on this one. Or the East fullstop come to that. If you allow such personal freedoms then freedom of thought comes with it. The Thai education system is already criticised as lacking critical thinking skills. Ifg you education the masses, especially to think, then they become critical and seek change. What is happening in Egypt, Tunisia, the Yemen, Greece and Turkey, where people are dissatisfied with their authoritarian leadership, is a natural phoenomena borne out of frustration.

That same frustration holds good here but the cowed nature of Thais, the repression through Budhist teachings, the fuedal system, the lack of opportunity and political understanding, the processes of indoctrination by way of tight media control and nationalism, seems to make 'revolution' impossible.

Furthermore, it beggars belief that while the Thammasat student rebellion of the 70s lead the way for the whole of society to change, it was repressed by an army that has literally ridden roughshot over the entire nation ever since.

Change ,ost often starts with a student body debating politics. Currently at TYhamasat they paint their nails while debating the Premiership demise of Chelsea. Times have changed.

If it is possible for Arab regimes to fail and the people to seek change to their lives in order to improve then surely the Thais have good reason too.

Unfortunately, for them, they don't have the gumption, desire or, I would say the intellect to motivate themselves let alone anyone else. Hence, young women dressed as little girls in clothes and styles they should have outgrown years back. Even worse, the mature figures that hold sway lack the intellect to actually understand the issue and address it.

Again, I remind you, in any aspect that you seek to consider, there is no hope of anything ever improving in Thailand.

It is broke and they can't fix it.

Well people! At least they are in uniform unlike some of the collage in the western world that never has any uniform at all. On another hands they might get husband before they can get the job after leaving school, hahahaha

Just what do you mean by your post pls?

In case you are unaware of it....

Just for your info, Thai as well as Indian, Japanese and Chinese students as a whole are way ahead of US and Euro students in terms of learning, diligence and intelligence.... both in areas of Maths and Science....

What these Asian students lack mostly is.... an equal opportunity.... to learning, resources and practicum.... among a few others.... B)

There are plenty of theses and dissertations from Thai students and researchers which due to language barrier and lack of man power in terms of sufficient capable and qualified translators, are collecting dusts....

Did you not see, read nor notice.... how the Thai students out perform other world class students on international Science projects and competitions....? :)

Just because other people can not speak English or Chinese well....

that does not mean that they are more stupid than the English speaking students or teachers as a matter of fact.... LOL :) :jap: (Am also reminding myself here... )
