Moral Authorities Encourage Songkran Attendees to Dress Appropriately

The Moral Authorities are encouraging Songkran attendees to dress appropriately for the festivities this year. The state media is warning the public that the sexual assault of women is caused by the clothing they wear.

Sin Suesuan, Center Director, said that Songkran’s high rate of accidents is caused by alcohol usage, unsafe driving, disputes and sexual assault. Suesuan noted that sexual assault was primarily caused by inappropriate attire.
