'Thai Hot Guy', who are they?
SHAH ALAM – Bangkok, Thailand, is well-known for its delectable cuisine, magnificent tourist attractions, "crazy nightlife," and now the 'Thai Hot Guy'.
Who are these "Thai Hot Guy"?
Places like Khao San Road, Nana Plaza, and Soi Cowboy offer crazy nightlife experiences on party streets in Bangkok.
Known as the City of Angels, visitors, both local and foreign—seek unique experiences when visiting this world-famous city.
As such, the 'Thai Hot Guy' of Bangkok has recently gained popularity.
The Staneemeehoi (Shell Station) is known for employing a team of muscular young men to wear skimpy female underwear and act 'girly' as they serve and entertain customers. The muscular men are very friendly, according to "Places and Foods", an online food channel blog, but will not touch anyone unless you request some sexy poses for photos and videos.
According to blogger Wilson Ng, the muscular men will scream, moan, dance, and do funny sexy poses just to entertain their customers.
Veerasak Maesa is the owner of Staneemeehoi, according to the Canadian South Asian magazine Darpan.
The male model who opened a shellfish restaurant in Bangkok had no business experience and took a risk by starting from scratch with some unique selling points.
After seven years of business in Bangkok, the 'Thai Hot Guy' was invited to promote the launch of a local bar in Malaysia, the Privacy Club Tun Razak's Grand Opening on March 30. However, it was cancelled after receiving backlash from the community.
On Wednesday, Wangsa Maju police chief Ashari Abu Samah was reported as saying that the police visited the bar and met event organisers and bar management.
He said the police had received some 60 complaints to investigate and cancel the cross-dressed male show.
Home Minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail had also called on the organisers to cancel the show and refrain from hurting the religious sentiments of the country’s Muslim community.
"Those who live in a multicultural society must respect one another.They must be aware of the sensitivities of their respective communities," Saifuddin said.
