Most of the people in that crowd cheering had probably lost children in their own families. This will never end, the hatred will be passed on from generation to generation

The way it is going in a few decades this will be the only snow we have.

They were not my signs, they were Thai business people that had been burnt before. Anyway, good information, I won’t be visiting Pai until they clear them out.

Do posters here post photos of their wives? Or is it what you just imagine?

Phuket isn’t for the poor or budget travelers. It is for those who want to live it up. Life is short. You can’t take it with you.

They were the days. I rented one last week like that.

Is wasnt us, it was the Israelis in Pai.

Because of Israelis behavior we will all pay now.

The Thais are not anti semetic. They are just sick and tired of the way the Israelis behave. Like the signs going up now “No Israelis” in Pai they have been going up in Thailand, especially the southern islands for decades. It is not anti semitism.

Well done mate. You got one of the hi-so upper class ones.

To be fair he did say the entitled Israelis, not all.

Matheus’s partner, Yael, an Israeli

I didn’t say she was entitled. But now you mention it, they break the law for nearly three months and continue to do so despite a very public warning. Sounds entitled to me.

His Israeli girlfriend.

This current escalation was set off by the Israelis rampaging and vandalizing the Pai hospital. Thai businesses have put up signs banning Israelis from entering. The police announced they were going to round up foreigners breaking the laws but this band stupidly thought they would continue despite the warnings. The police showed more tolerance to the Irishman than they did to the Israelis and to Matheus who has an Israeli partner. Local social media and mainstream media is quite opening is discussing how the locals are annoyed by the behavior of the Israelis, so no surprise they were targeted. I am pleased that the Thais are not painting all foreigners with the same brush for the behavior of a certain group and are focusing on the trouble makers and not dragging us all down with them.

Obviously mentally ill although many will try and claim “Islam” made him do it while ignoring the hundreds of millions of Muslims that just peacefully go about their day. RIP

I didn’t realize the Italians were a big thing in Ireland. Some countries people travel well and don’t have much trouble, like the Japanese, Thais have had issue with Israelis going back decades.

If you live in Thailand so you actually communicate with the people in the country you live in what be one good reason. Thais have enough English speakers to do very well. I think you can not grasp the reality that it is completely unnecessary for 95% of Thais to speak English. They have no use for it.

Where did you meet this partner? There is a saying Farang ru mak Mai dee ฝรั่งรู้มากไม่ดี Farang who knows to much is not good. Very common amongst bar girls etc but not amongst normal society. What are they saying about you?

Indeed it has. The same type of people that will be rubbish in this project would have been rubbish in solar and batteries ten years ago. But rather than being pleased in this significant advancement they will double down and still be negative. Mostly people that identify as “right wing”. Strange people.

Trump is President and Russia are in Ukraine.

Paranoia is common in non thai speakers who imagine everyone is gossiping about them when they are really only discussing the price of potatoes, chewing gum and guava in France.

Trump isn’t very bright. Putin is a master player. He plays Trump like a fiddle.
