Easy for Farang to say change this or that but they do not live the life of most Thai people.
I work with dozens of Thais daily, and interact with hundreds of Thais professionally in a year.

Making change is not always about posters and shouting and forcing your opinion on people.

Sometimes it is about quiet conversation, and a small comment.

"wow, i saw that ad, what do you think about that?"

Hi-sos can hit people with no consequences?

What do you think about that?

No need to state a position. Change is a slow process, that come come from a small event.

We don't have to shout and scream. Sometimes we can whisper.
