Thais in mood for love on Valentine's Day

By Agencies in Bangkok | China Daily | Updated: 2017-02-15 07:32

Government hands out vitamin pills to help healthy pregnancies and stimulate birthrate

Babies dressed as cupids, underwater weddings and a government vitamin giveaway to encourage procreation were all part of Thailand's imaginative and bizarre events on Tuesday to mark Valentine's Day.

The Land of Smiles embraces Feb 14 like few other countries in Southeast Asia, with Bangkok awash with pop-up flower stalls and a roster of romantic gestures unfurling across the country.

The government led the love-in, doling out heart-shaped boxes of free iron and folic acid supplements in a bid to help healthy pregnancies and stimulate the kingdom's birthrate.

Thai couples are getting married less often and later in their lives, meaning fewer children each year.

"In 1970, a family had an average of six children but now it's 1.6," said Wachira Pengjuntr, director-general of the Department of Health.

"In the past people ate better food, more vegetables and fruits but now lifestyles have changed. ... So we want to encourage more births."

Underwater weddings

In the southern tourist hotspot of Trang, couples were offered the opportunity to marry underwater - in full wedding dress and diving gear - in an annual publicity stunt aimed at boosting visitor numbers.

And babies at one Bangkok maternity ward were dressed up with wings to resemble the god of love.

Even Thailand's fractious political arena, a stage more accustomed to the delivery of brickbats than bouquets, could not escape Cupid's arrow.

In a widely trailed "Day of Love", the government opened reconciliation talks with some political players in an effort to bridge a decade of conflict. Prime Minister Prayut Cha-O-Cha was in an affectionate mood following a poll saying just more than half the country wanted to give him flowers for Valentine's Day.

"I have love for everyone - all 70 million Thais every day - not only on Valentine's Day. I have roses for you everyday. Thank you," he said.

Still the government's passion for Valentine's Day was a contrast to more po-faced approaches in previous years - in 2015 the generals urged young people to have a special meal or visit temples instead of having sex.
