Coconuts photo stolen by the Tourism Authority of Thailand.

The Tourism Authority of Thailand continues with its food fetish today by stealing a photo of some coconuts.

Tourism Authority of Thailand Sukjai Stolen Coconuts

Once again, the Tourism Authority of Thailand is fixated on food instead of tourism.

The photo was stolen from here.

Some of the text was taken from this Thai Government site – the Ministry of Public Health.  I guess some of the text has to do with being healthy.

Taking the text from a Thai Government web site is legal (public domain), but shows the laziness of the staff at the Tourism Authority of Thailand.  I mean, how much effort does it take to write a few paragraphs in your native language?

Credit and a link back to the Ministry of Public Health would be appropriate, but the Tourism Authority of Thailand knows little about ethics and being appropriate.

And, why are they still so focused on food?  A picture of three coconuts is not going to generate any tourists at all.  I guess the Tourism Authority of Thailand has no interest in generating real tourists.  All they do is publish fabricated numbers of tourism arrivals that are more than the previous year.

But, this is how the Tourism Authority of Thailand does business.

The text was modified to remove a broken link to http://market.taradkaset.com/15/%E0%B8%95%E0%B9%89%E0%B8%AD%E0%B8%87%E0%B8%81%E0%B8%B2%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%8B%E0%B8%B7%E0%B9%89%E0%B8%AD%E0%B8%81%E0%B8%B0%E0%B8%A5%E0%B8%B2%E0%B8%A1%E0%B8%B0%E0%B8%9E%E0%B8%A3%E0%B9%89%E0%B8%B2%E0%B8%A7-%E0%B9%80%E0%B8%9B%E0%B8%A5%E0%B8%B7%E0%B8%AD%E0%B8%81%E0%B8%9B%E0%B8%B2%E0%B8%A5%E0%B9%8C%E0%B8%A1%E0%B8%88%E0%B8%B3%E0%B8%99%E0%B8%A7%E0%B8%99%E0%B8%A1%E0%B8%B2%E0%B8%81.html.
