Cover those billboards

Apparently semi-naked men shilling for underwear on billboards isn't flying in Bangkok.

The Ministry for Culture of Bangkok has ordered local advertisers to remove all billboards depicting images of men in their underwear from the streets of the city. Municipal officials believe that such images are corrupting local residents. In addition, such advertising activity was said to be immoral towards children.

The king and his milieu said that posters of semi-naked men in underwear were "obscene." The king said that the owners of such billboards would have to remove obscene photographs from the streets within several days.
