and again in the realm of WTF...
HANOI (AFP) - Communist Vietnam has suspended a much-criticised plan to ban very short, thin and flat-chested people from driving, state media reported on Wednesday. The new draft guidelines on motorcycle and car drivers had drawn widespread criticism and ridicule from motorists, newspaper readers and bloggers since they were published by the health ministry two weeks ago. Under the 83-point plan, people shorter than 1.5 metres (4.9 feet), lighter than 40 kilogrammes (88 pounds) or with a chest circumference of less than 72 centimetres would no longer qualify for new drivers' licences. The proposal worried many in this nation of slender people and spurned jokes about traffic police with tape measures enthusiastically flagging down female motorcyclists, and predictions of a run on padded bras. The justice ministry has asked the health ministry to temporarily suspend and review the plan, the Vietnam News daily reported. "After receiving public opinion about the decision, the health and transport ministries agreed there had to be changes," senior health department official Tran Quy Tuong was quoted as saying by the state-run daily. from: [ ca.news.yahoo.com ] | |
