Hi all; Thai soldiers told to keep it in trousers in Kabul:

Troops must forswear vices on Kabul mission
Must avoid sex, porn, gambling, alcohol
Wassana Nanuam, Bangkok Post, January 21, 2003
Thai soldiers have been told to avoid alcohol, gambling, sex and internet porn while in Afghanistan.
...
``We will make friends with people there and colleagues from other countries but we'll not think about sex,'' he said.
...
Despite the rules, 300 soldiers have applied for the mission. Troops will get a daily allowance of US$79 (about 3,400 baht) from the United States.
