The article states that our book “discusses negative subjects such as fake goods, gambling, gay performances, touts and scams, and places such as Patpong, Nana, and Khaosan Road,” and singles out a photograph that shows a bar girl on farang's (foreigner's) lap. Ms Ladda is quoted as saying that “according to the Constitution, the press has freedom to publish. So, all we can do is to take the problematic books off the shelf.” This is the author's response.
