Thai Transgender Power

Q1:What's Crystal's job and what company does she work for?
She works as the manager of a French cosmetic company L'OCCITANE and her job is to make sure that everything is okey.
Q2:What are the interesting things about her?
She liked man and she didn't want to have relationship with women when she was a child. She doesn't drink, smoke, and she is a vegetarian.
Q3:What happened to her?
At June 22, 2007 at 11:00 pm, after going with a friend to the concept CM2 nightclub in Bangkok's Novotel Silmon Hotel, she was told at the entrance that the hotel cannot allow transgender person to come in.
Q4:As a result, there is a big change of constitution of Thailand. What's the big change?
All the people in diplomacy agreed totally that they should add the sexual identity into the constitution draft, and on August 19, 2007, Thailand voted in favor of the new constitution, with 58 percent approval, insuring that Thailand would have transgender and gay rights for the first time in its history.
Q5:How about Japan compared to Thailand?
I have heard that there was an wedding ceremony at Tokyo Disney land for gay couple in Japan. Although it is not allowed in Japanese law that marriage of gay couple, Japanese people think human's rights as one of the most important things, so I think there are less kind of discrimination things here in Japan than in Thailand.
