Just asked an English speaking family member about this and received a bit of abuse about 'disrespect' and 'our culture'. All I was doing was asking a polite question as to why, given it was not hidden to the mourners at the venue. Ho hum... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katia Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I wondered the same thing, but chalked it up to my internet being crap slow lately (thanks, VPN) and just figured I wasn't getting the true live feed... (Speaking of which, has anyone heard if the khon dramas and puppet shows and musical performances will be on Youtube later? I'd like to watch them at some point...)

I know, but as I said, internet is slow so trying to watch live is a pain (it would be easier to turn it on, let it load, watch it when it's done so), and I don't want to stay up all night watching (also, since there are several different types of performance, according to what I've read, I can't watch all simultaneously).

tominbkk Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I checked out the Channel 7 App, they are showing a military concert, Thai PBS some lip synch drama. But my Thai friend told me they won't show the actual cremation. I don't need a closeup, but I think that's what we all came here to witness.... oh welll....

No it's ok but please be careful because many of us are interested to see the 'finale' and your link was so obviously form an hour or two ago. The 22.00 was the actually cremation not not scout going up the stairs and performers that your clip showed. I have check over 10 links now and am getting a storm of complaints form friends watching too - everyone disappointed etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickenslegs Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Serious question - I do not mean any disrespect to anyone - Why are people upset not to see the cremation itself? Were they hoping to see the body placed into the oven, the fire itself, or the smoke from the chimney? I don't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been on for 10 hours why stop it at the final part? that's like seeing a F1 race for 3 hours then blocking the final lap. If we can't see it, fair enough, block it all.
