Most of Thailand’s foreign arrivals in July were Malaysian tourists
BayArea replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I think he meant Malaysians as in the Malay ethnicity, not Chinese or Indian from Malaysia. And you're correct , unless they have a conversation with you , you really can't tell the difference between a Chinese from any SE Asian country. The mainland Chinese are a bit more obvious for several reasons. -
So very true. You remember Thailand almost went to war with Cambodia over the Preah Vihear temple, a wat that was actually by the ancient Khmer ?? Lol!!!

Just to be clear, the origin of these artifacts are not Thai. The creators of these items belong to the Kingdom of Srijivaya ( Malay) and Dvaravati ( Mon). Just like all the ancient wats dotted throughout Thailand that were built before the 12th century belongs to the Khmer civilization.
