Today someone sent me this video/compilation of Thai TV commercials. Surely none of these commercials affect the way young children view themselves… 😉
Skin whitening in Thailand is to tanning in the west. We all have our preferences and it’s really up to the parents and teachers to properly educate children. If kids see their family and friends give preference to people of lighter skin then what do you think there going to do?
It takes a unique Thai to stand up and say all this shit is really stupid. In the end its just a commercial and if I don’t really like it then I shouldn’t watch it. Personally the second commercial did make me chuckle a bit…
