Is Thailand likely to see a mass exodus of expats?
BangkokReady replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
How old do you mean? Do you envisage a sixty something expat with a sixty something Thai? If that was the case, I doubt they would need to pick an ex-prostitute. It sounds like it's important for you that retirees living in Thailand are in relationships with basically the least desirable women. I'm afraid the reality is likely to disappoint you. -

I'm no expert, but if someone was going to marry an ex-prostitute who they have to essentially pay to marry, why would they be with someone their own age? Your comment lacks logic. -

Dual Pricing Reconfirmed In Thailand National Parks

Yes, I'm sure they always check the nationality of Asians closely and wouldn't dream of using the policy to only charge Westerners extra... ???? -

Because it has nothing to do with residential status, or income, it's simply a group of people, being target for price gouging, because of their race. If they only did it for tourists, you could see it was somewhat reasonable, but where they target people who live and work in Thailand, who have Thai wives and children, who might have contributed far more to Thailand that many Thais have, it's plane racism. How and why is it not racist? -

Any examples? All people are bothered by racism. Strange that it's only people that hate White expats that gets triggered when they discuss it and project their anger onto them. -

Racism is acceptable in Thailand. Milking foreigners, tourist or expat, of their money is also accepted, even encouraged. -

It's more if you're a foreigner, you're a foreigner, and therefore you pay extra. It has nothing to do with tourism, it's all about racism. -
Thai Expats celebrate Queen’s Platinum Jubilee in style

Are there many Thai expats in Thailand? It looks more like foreign expats and their Thai partners. ???? -
Govt Aims to Cut Traffic Deaths by Two-Thirds in Five Years
BangkokReady replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
By saying that getting rid of the current government would fix it and then that the ministers in the current government have caused these problems? Yes. That is exactly what you have said. You said the current government is to blame. I can understand perfectly what you have written. It seems it is you who cannot even grasp their own words. I recommend you do have that lie down, followed by a session of crayon drawing as you suggest. -
This sort of tribalism or territorialism leading to violence is common throughout the world. Vocation schools obviously have a different "type" of student, so that might increase it. It's also probably kind of expected of them in the kind of "show you're a man" kind of thing that some young men go through. There was even a movie recently "4 Kings" that glorifies it. I wonder if also the "love your school" type of indoctrination that Thai schools have is related. Basically, I think if you look at football hooliganism in the UK, you will see quite a few parallels.
