A Bangkok-based community group is inviting people to spend an hour doing nothing at all, in a “Just sitting and doing no s**t” (นั่งเฉยๆ ไม่ทำเหี้ยไรเลย) event that pokes fun at the city’s packed calendar of self-improvement activities.
Commons and Bonfire, the group behind the event, is calling on people to simply sit still for an hour on July 4 at Lumpini Park, with no phones, no books, no notepads and nothing to accomplish.
The gathering is open to anyone who wants to rest their mind, unplug from screens, push back against hustle culture, or simply spend an hour “being a burden on the country’s GDP”, as the organisers put it.
