BTS shows the nanny state Thailand is
My point exactly, Thais are so well-behaved already, no need to remind them between nearly every stop of how they are 🫡

BTS shows the nanny state Thailand is
Nonstop public announcements in the BTS: "Do this, don't do that, attention to not do, attention to do..." Whether it's how to stand or how to sit or how to behave, BTS riders are constantly reminded by the female voice how to behave. Subconsciously, hardly anyone notices. This nonstop feeding of behavioral conformity is nothing more than patronizing nanny state applied to everyone.

Thai Service As Demeaning

Story Of My Thai Citizenship Application
After all the effort and work that went into such an application, keep the process going. You're about to cross the finishing line. The process is not easy for anyone, for many it takes turns as nothing follows a straight line in Thailand. Maybe you have a friend or connection who can employ you on paper? Wish you all the best! Married for nearly four decades here and working for long, you're the one who deserves the citizenship. Many attempt to force shortcuts, you know what I mean. Keep at it, you are the one this naturalization opportunity is really for, don't get discouraged by the usual bureaucracy terror, just keep your possibilities open.

Compulsory Hair cuts.
You see how this brainwashed society ends up Hairstyle is just a small piece of the puzzle Don't tell me you insist that families in Thailand are intact, all I see are single-parent kids (left with the mother and then grandma) The rule here is disregard for anything beyond the imminent self (a.k.a. most Thais still don't care about pollution, the world is one big rubbish bin) Not to mention completely unhinged politics Don't get me started with seniority-rules even in private companies...

Story Of My Thai Citizenship Application
Well I applied under the first Thaksin admin and my super helpful handler at police headquarters "disappeared" with the political you-know-what... and so apparently did many files 🤪

Story Of My Thai Citizenship Application
I was one of those who went into "indefinite limbo." Didn't take their silence for silence, since I got pretty high points and made them re-ignite my application, which then passed some 15 years later 🫡

Is Trump actually doing a better job than you expected?
Anyone didn't expect him to do a better job than his predecessor? That would be a sad state of being not able to form an own, educated opinion.

Causes of the exponential increase in Thai obesity?
The 7-11 mindset, cheap (yet overpriced) highly processed "food" without nutritional value, and getting it mostly delivered, not to mention common Thai laziness, all adds up How Thais already love those bumpui kids!

Story Of My Thai Citizenship Application
You could go as far and say that ethnic Chinese heritage is in control of Thailand. Well, there is a middle way between uncontrolled inflows of foreigners and a controlled one. A certain paranoia politicizes fear and holds the country back in many ways. We've seen that with the many nullified elections. No need to feel as a second-class citizen, your voice matters.

Story Of My Thai Citizenship Application
There is a dislike of everything non-Thai among the higher ups. Thais integrate so well in other countries. Here? Am still waiting for the first mixed or naturalized Thai to have a say in government or politics. Show biz of course, but politics. A farang face in local elections, that would mark real progress.

Thailand grants citizenship to half a million people – but not farangs
Interesting and well-deserved move for the migrants. Guess citizenship applications for expats working and living here for long-time remain stalled?
