Crushing bootleg DVDs with Girly Berry
About once a year the Thai Police hold a destruction ceremony, ferrying in about 20 dump trucks full of bootleg DVDs, CDs, fake bags, jeans, cell phones, cigarettes, you name it. If it's counterfeit they've got some of it. After seizing it they can't just release it back on to the market so instead haul it to an industrial furnace to burn it. They turned it into a media event, inviting some of the local recording artists, including girl group Girly Berry, to participate and publicize the event. I handle intellectual property enforcement so I got invited, too, the only farang at the show.

Did you notice that some of the people seem to be making off with stuff? Hilarious!!
