the kind of people you are referring to are not denied a visa 3x for no reason other than racism. there is much more to the story and i would need to see everything attached to make a proper decision.
your other friend again very little info to go on i'm afraid.
i think there is something lost in translation here. the pic clearly shows the driver dispensing from a coke dispenser not water. water does cost them something ? it may be only a fraction of a satang but last i looked most places had to pay for water service.
ill go with what it plainly looks like. a driver helping himself to a free coke. until proven otherwise i think the term nam is being lost in translation.
now had the driver said....
p kap can i grab a little water from the dispenser.... might of changed everything.
so i can just pop into 7 and grab a small bottled water open it no biggie right ? example on my walk last night i was sweating quite a lot when i got to 7. i am human too.
that is prejudice if i ever seen it. my body my choice...isn't that what is always said for women and abortion ?
yet i am not allowed to have control over the choices of my own body. not cool.
