Some 400 children from 50 Bangkok communities yesterday asked for the removal of alcohol drinks' billboards as a gift for National Children's Day this Saturday.
The group, camping at the City Hall's Khon Muang Plaza, urged City Governor MR Sukhumbhand Paribatra to strictly reinforce the antialcohol measures for a Bangkok safe from drunken persons, free from ads leading kids astray, and with fewer crimeprone locations.
Showing concern over the plentiful booze shops and alcoholic smoothie drinks available all over the city including near schools or temples the young people and accompanying adults held antialcohol activities at the plaza.
