Freedom of speech in Thailand

Nowadays, the word “media” can be translated into many meanings. It doesn't only mean T.V., radio, or journalist. It also means how people try to connect their knowledges and news to others. Media is very important and useful and every countries in the world are trying to improve their medias. Every countries want to be powerful so that their social lives and economics can be improved as their medias. So does our country, Thailand, is developing its media but it seems to be hard because the social life here is very competitive and people think that money is more important so money is the important role that shut down business medias. This may occurred in the future, and it can affect all of us. So, it is time to think hard whether Thailand has given enough freedom to medias or not.

First of all, I think freedom of speech in Thailand is not enough. Thai people has taught by a culture, you have to respect an elder If they tell you something you cannot dispute them because you think,the elder always right when they say anything and not polite If you dispute when they say but sometime it is wrong, you will dispute them if you see something wrong you should think when they say if not you will scare when you think ,so when you work in a mass communication and you cannot think it's mean you don't have something new to show your ability, you will have only worn out thing in your communication when the communication doesn't have any improvement ,the communication will lag behind so that is a reason why the communication in Thailand is not enough because people scare to think.
Second, Politicians in Thai land have a lot of power,money and connection. The politicians are in high position in Thai goverment they use their position to do illegal actions because no one under them will check what they are doing. This people in lower position are afraid of being hurt by the politicians. If politicians are caught doing illegal actions they pay the media to change the story that will be reported because the politicians can control the media this affect our freedom of speech, the real event do not get reported.
Third, The medai in Thai culture does not except sexual content in their programs the medai censor sex seens and naked images. They think this things are not suitable for Thai people but in truth they don't have the right to decide for the people , sex and nudity are a normal part of life in today's world.
when you control see and hear that affect their freedom of speech. Thai people don't have much freedom of speech because of the medai, Thai people should force the medai to report the truth and not cersor their programs.

Fat Fastival

Last Saturday, I went to Fat festival in CHALLENGER Hall two and three at IMPACT ARENA. Before I went to Fat festival I went to see Feel's Good concert at SKALA Theater at SIAM. Feel's Good concert was about the movie star in the GTH film they would sing songs and had talks show at the end of a concert I thought, this a boring concert and some of an actors was not good for sang songs moreover the event was not so good because the stage was far smaller than it should be and sound of music was bad it was not balance with the voice sound and cost so expensive. I went out from the SKALA Theater by my car at 5.00 p.m. I arrived at IMPACT ARENA at 7.30 p.m. it was to slower than it should be because the traffic jams. I came here for sold T-shirts with my friends we sold around 50 prices while my friends were selling T- shirts I went shopping at the other shops there was many record shops and restaurants and had many concert from the artists I bought many cd such as Cd of Groverider ETC Bodyslam. After I went to see Zeal, it was a band they played very well and good for entertain the people they played for 30 minute while I was walking toward at my shop I had see my old friend we had study at same school before his name was Jo he came with his girl friend I talked to him for ten minute then I went back to my shop and continued to sell T-shirt. I leaved from IMPACK ARENA at 8 p.m. then I went to practice with my band because tomorrow I had to play a concert in Fat Festival with my band at 1.30 p.m. but my friends still in Fat Festival. On Sunday we arrived at Impact Arena at 12.00 p.m. then we had lunch at MacDonald after we went to behind a stage and ready to played concert when our turn arrived I felt very interested because it was my first time on the stage with a lot of people came to see my band we played four of songs while I played I had stage fright some time I forgot chords but it was not problem for me when we finished the last song we got an applause from a crowd I felt proud myself after we moved to the next stage it had a Cell band I very liked this band cause they were a good player and entertainer it had a lot of people came to see this band
