Two rival groups of teenagers clashed on Monday night at a charity concert featuring music legends Ad Carabao and Sek Loso, forcing an abrupt and early end to the show, police said.

The "Light of Hope" concert was at the Port Authority of Thailand Stadium in Bangkok's Klong Toey district.

Police said the fight started around 10pm when a group of about 50 vocational students exchanged words with another group of local Klong Toey youths.

As usual, Donut is right. I, too,get excited by certain, provocative music and have been known to wake up, tap my toes,etc. My wife has a plastic shield,vest, and tear gas available
for more outrageous outbursts including passing gas and humming off tune ! After all, kids will be kids so lets have a hand for the parents and the John Rambo Vocational School.
That being said- 50, un combat trained, weaponless, mentally challenged, underweight punks,(Oops-student punks ), against some 700 trained,riot control officers and the winner - undetermined ? Maybe the officers should attend the same school.

Well folks, What do you expect? We have a drunken DPM in parliament, was caught drunk in Malaysia, he is a police top dog, plus Thailand is a police state, there is no light in the tunnel. For vocational school, the history keeps repeating itself. The education minister change too frequently in the past few years, continuity is a big problem.

D27, I also find Ploydonut very refreshing and amusing. I remember many years ago the famous Postbag contributor, Mrs. (or Mr.) Edith Clapton. I couldn't miss any of his/her letters. Ploydonut could be the newest inspiration to the Bangkok Post commentators, and also for free also. I have missed the Claptons and look forward to the Donuts.

Seeing this picture it remind me seeing USA 30 years ago, when government started program dividing people between rich and poor; Pushed poor people out of higher education(financially). The choice the poor youth have to make is to be gang member or be a soldier. The result of this program was ten years later big Rodney King Riot. Now Thai youths are learning the same spirit of dividing society between rich and poor. I hope government is hurry to solve this deep rooted destructive behavior before everything is too late.

In Thailand, Young-generation and Old-generation are same DNA.

When Many narrow-mind and feeble‐minded monkeys has repeated on the Planet of the Apes, the world has coped with the world financial crisis. But The frog in the well knows nothing of the great ocean.

D22 of course he / she is, or if not, a highly aware and funny Thai who must clearly take inspiration from the spoof website dedicated to this newspaper's rival...unfortunately many readers don't seem to have gotten it yet.

Having said that, miss donut's comments do closely mirror the sort of absurd nonsense that comes out of various senior civil servants' / politicians' mouths on a regular basis, the difference being that these people are serious!

In fact I think ploydonut should immediately be nominated government spokeswoman and minister of information. At least (s)he'll do the job for free. :)

@discussion 22 - Ploydonut is written by someone who does not speak Thai and has no idea of the way native Thai speakers tend to make mistakes in English.

I also believe ploydonut is a farang impersonating a Thai. Although "she" claims to live in Togo. ???

The upbringing of these old kids can be a factor why they behave like this.These young adults are supposedly the future of our nation but sad to know that they are already a trouble-makers. good values and moral among our kids seemed to be cracking down to the lowest level. Our education system might need to do something.
