Thailand Blocks YOU TUBE


Thailand has in a surprise move blocked your TUBE and there was no warning to why they did it and no new agency in Thailand has told anybody about it.

More news will come as we get it but right not they just blocked youtube.com and made a link to the government website.

Turkey blocked the website today but government had some reason for it. Thailand has been known for blocking websites with out warning or reason before.

    I remember seeing some very sharp criticisms of Saprang and Prem uploaded onto YouTube.

    That probably is enough for the entire site to be classified as “not contributing to the public morality.”

    Next up for censorship: Google! Why? Well, somebody uploaded a Thai translation of Chapter 15 of The King Never Smiles onto Google Pages. It’s at:

    Chapter 15 is all about Prem and sad events of the 1980’s.

    Not a bad translation, if I do say so for myself, although the title is changed to สวรรค์ในอก นรกในใจ and the title of Chapter 15 to น้ำพึ่งเรือ-เสือพึ่งป่า
