What’s new pussycat, on the front of lunacy in Thailand ? “Curbing the youth promiscuity” on… Hi5.com (social networking website).
Sounds promising and even exciting, huh?
But you can wonder : why Hi5, when… there are gazillions of websites to chat, meet, have fun ?
This story about a poor monk could help you to understand the link that some kissing-arse civil servant at the IT Minister probably made…
Director of the Bureau of Information Technology under the Ministry of Information Technology and Communication (ICT) stated that an email dispatched from the ICT to operators of popular teen social website Hi 5 has been met with compliance from the US. The email had asked the website to aid in the curbing of inappropriate material and material of a sexual nature, which is openly available to minors using the site.
The website’s executives have answered with their full cooperation. The ICT will nonetheless, continue to closely monitor the web address along with other targeted websites and is ready to take legal action against violators. (PRD)
Welcome to Thailand.
I guess now someone would have to ask Hi5 their own story… 
Any volunteer ?
I did it. We’ll see if we get an answer.
