'Dome' learns harsh lessonListen to this articleSinger and online influencer Pakorn "Dome" Lam has earned the dubious honour of being the first major test of Thailand's newly amended sexually harassment law. Details about the post -- and the excuses subsequently offered -- should serve as a cautionary tale for online users. The amendment recognised verbal and online sexual harassment as stand alone criminal offences, punishable by penalties of up to one year in prison, a fine of up to 20,000 baht, or both. On Tuesday, police questioned Ms Yossuda and will summon Pakorn for interrogation next week. The newly amended law is designed to protect all individuals from sexual harassment, regardless of their backgrounds or social standing.
