How the Lazada TikTok debacle in Thailand began and how far it went


BANGKOK (The Nation/Asia News Network): A TikTok clip that was supposed to be funny and encourage shoppers to buy clothes on Lazada backfired and resulted in many netizens boycotting the shopping platform instead.

The controversy was sparked when a clip created by transgender influencer Aniwat Prathumthin aka Nara Crepe Katoey hit the net to promote Lazada’s 5.5 sale.
