I personally don't think its even the language thing, some farangs come into Thailand thinking they are going to be as bwana to the natives, its the "only gay in the village" mentality in a lot of casesthe biggest problem among farangs is the lack of initiative to learn thai to communicate with thai people, having the mentality that english is superior than thai.
hi there, is just my opinion. btw i'm not a farang but personally i do take an initiative to learn thai although it's quite difficult. Thai people do appreciate if foreigners like their language.
Ah you may not get my "only gay in the village" comment, look up a comedy series called little Britain and you will understand what I am getting at
i do know mr bean though !

can you imagine if USA or any european country is colonised by asian country?

farangs should keep a low profile especially in pattaya where crime rates involving them are quite high.

definitely not appropriate for religious figures to have modern weapons but i guess even monks are also against the coup.

As much as I agree that the penalty is too lenient, this is their law.

It's a grey area in determining exactly which beggar is worth your donation. However my principle is that I will only donate to thai beggars, whether genuine or not.

Very cheap when compared to the 7-11 in my country. Me also kinda attracted to the variety and wordings.

one of the girl winked at me
Wow..Winked??
I hope you didn't shoot your load...
haha. i'm not that weak ! i don't bully younger girls.

i've only been to the 7-11 at beach rd, pattaya and the one near nana BTS, bangkok, equally good service. i even gave way to other thai people and let them queue in front of me 1st, one of the girl winked at me.

So many of you cannot accept whats going on here in Thailand. If you feel it's so bad, why not move back to you home country or to Zimbabwe as someone proposed. I'm a farrang work and live in this Kingdom and I do accept if strong measures are taken to root out corruption and any other issues.
We are guests in this country and not citizens. If some cannot accept that fact, they always have the freedom to leave Thailand and settle down in another "paradise".
I agree with you. We are foreigners in thailand so we can only accept these changes. Ah well. But I still pray for thailand. Thai people are friendly and nice, just that the political system is not mature yet.

How dare the army order the ex-pm to report to them !? After the coup, I hope yingluck runs for pm again and make the army report to her everyday.

Constitution suspended ? 1st time I see this. What a joke.
-
Are you implying that they can not stoop low enough to pander to idiots who don't listen?i literally laughed throughout the interview. The army really cannot speak well to reporters.
Haha. Thailand is somewhat egypt, the army is not entirely under the government. The only good thing is in the no. of casualties.

there was a farang who generalised that all thai women are prostitutes, ended up he got whacked by 3 ladies.
-
before i went to pattaya last year, i had already heard of the jet ski scams through youtube. hope that more tourists can be aware of this situation and avoid them at all costs.
-
what's wrong with selling food along roads? i think arresting illegal immigrants and other criminals are more important.
-
she is still very young and also ignorant to quickly comment on politics.
-
I also love thailand but to die in thailand is something still far-fetched for me.
-
why are they always bargirls and never barWOMEN regardless of age ......?
western women tend to age faster?

Suthep is a bad example of thai democracy. In future, many more of such nonsense.
-
The biggest flaw in the idiot Suthep's plan is that he doesn't really have one, he is just winging it. This whole thing seem to be just a personal vendetta by Suthep against Thaksin and people are getting hurt in his private little bitching.
Very true. His supporters will regret in the long run. Suthep is not the right person in thai democracy.

Good effort by thai police to catch those criminals.
