I am loving this story which I found on the BBC news website.
‘Police chiefs in the Thai capital, Bangkok, have come up with a new way of punishing officers who break the rules – an eye-catching Hello Kitty armband.
The armband is large, bright pink and has a Hello Kitty motif with two hearts embroidered on it.
From today, officers who are late, park in the wrong place or commit other minor transgressions will have to wear it for several days.
The armband is designed to shame the wearer, police officials said.’
Great idea, maybe they can wear them to show everyone they recently extracted a few hundred baht from you illegally when you are on your holidays….
