Guy arrested for spray painting the Grand Palace

Thailand is Cambodia's neighbor to the West, and this forum is dedicated to Thai news, stories, reviews, blogs, videos, Thai people and anything else related to the country. A lot of expats have both lived and worked in Cambodia and Thailand, and this area is a place to discuss all aspects of life in Thailand and what's going on there. Most topics are about Bangkok and Pattaya because of their larger populations of expatriates and tourists in those cities, but this is for all things Thai.

Not sure graffiti artists are the world's (or Thailand's) most serious problem at the moment

Best way to stop this is erect blank whiteboards in a specified area and clean them daily: encourages creativity, dissipates frustration, and solves much of the problem

That circle sprayed with an "A" in it is a symbol for anarchy. Asking an anarchist to limit their spray painting to the confines of a whiteboard which has been erected specifically for that purpose and cleaned daily would be kind of ironic given the anarchist's philosophy is to reject authority. But I get what you mean, it's been proven to work in many places where specific areas have been designated general graffiti zones.

Forgive my off topic statement but I’d dare any artist go Singapore to vandalize any public property and see what he’ll end up with 😂😂
