In an unsettling account of misconduct, a 37-year-old Thai woman named Tuk has come forward with allegations against a local official in Nakhon Ratchasima’s Isaan province. She claims that a sub-district chief, who she had accompanied to a local restaurant one fateful afternoon, made inappropriate advances toward her in a brazen display of sexual harassment. This incident, which allegedly took place on December 9, showcased appallingly inappropriate behavior from someone in a position of authority. As Tuk recounts, the atmosphere at the restaurant was initially unremarkable. She was seated alongside the sub-district chief, some male community leaders, and two other women. However, the meal took a dark turn when the chief, emboldened by alcohol, kissed her cheek without consent. Appalled, Tuk immediately voiced her displeasure, but this did not deter him for long.
