- I have been to Thailand rather recently, and every where I went, I can see
- boys and girls in the scout uniform.
-
- I am not sure whether this is practised anywhere else, but I was really
- impressed, the scouts helped performed duties such as helping students
- crossing the road, ... etc.
-
- Some of the teachers are in uniform too, I won't be surprised if they teach
- in their uniform.
-
- Such scenes makes me respect them, it shows their committment to the Scout
- Movement. If only such things are practised in my country too. The boys
- here don't really enjoy wearing the uniform, far less respect it.
