Ms Panadda brings anti-rape campaign to Nakhon Si Thammarat

**misskit** · 10-07-2014, 05:46 AM

Actress and TV moderator Panadda “Boom” Wongpoodee travelled to Nakhon Si Thammarat to launch a campaign for death penalty against rapists with a group of provincial vocational students.
Holding a poster which reads “Death to the Rapists” Ms Panadda and some 30 students paraded around Nakhon Si Thammarat railway station, urging members of the public to join her campaign.

She said that Nakhon Si Thammarat was chosen as the pilot province for the campaign launch.

Nakhon Si Thammarat was one of the stops of the night sleeper train in which Nong Kaem was travelling with her elder sister and was eventually raped and killed and her body was thrown out of the moving train by an employee of the State Railway of Thailand.

One of the students who joined the campaign, Ms Darika Raden, said most of the rape cases were linked to methamphetamine addiction. Rape cases, she said, must be tackled at their root cause.

Nothing like making an unfounded and false statement that is allowed to go unchallenged. Rape is to a large extent the result of the local culture that views it as acceptable behaviour. The yaba problem is less severe in some regions and yet the rapes still occur in numbers reflective of the overall rate. It is easier to blame meth heads than for the society as a whole to accept responsibility. Those guys who are raping are someone's kids. I wonder where they were reared so that the didn't learn that rape is unacceptable?

Not to mention the fact that rape was around in Thai culture long before yaba was.
