It depends on where you go. If you go to the temple or ceremony, yes you do need the polite dress. In general, casual is okay.

neither post really addresses my concern. sure it's hot-guess naked is appropriate in hot weather! casual-who's definition of casual does one go by. I've been in many countries were a sleeveless blouse or shorts(above the knee) indicated you were willing to get into bed w/ anyone who found that type of behavior to there fancy. Am I to assume shorts and sleeveless tops are ok in TH.

Just dress normally as what you wear everyday :-)
