In fact during the Bangkok sit ins before the Junta took over, many people were being paid 1000 baht and bused in from the provinces just to sit and pretend they supported the yellows and they wanted change. When in fact they actually were supporters of the Reds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are indeed those that are working hard and are still poor but there are plenty that are lazy too. You should just open your eyes. In this country and many others both reasons are valid laziness and economic reasons. so let's see, plenty of research done to show the reasons for poverty, against Thai Visa experts anecdotes and bs, I think I know which one I will be listening to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of Thais not wanting to work certain jobs. If you are really poor you grab all opportunity you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect a lot of them have a job, probably on day to day basis,but it does not pay enough for them to live on,even though their needs are very simple. regards worgeordie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then i suggest you move to an other country this wont change. ( i would not mind some change but that is an other story) You were saying there were no lazy Thais, i am saying there are otherwise the immigrants don't take the jobs they don't want. I am saying not all poverty comes from lack of chances a lot comes from lack of ambition and lack of willingness to work. Certainly not from everyone because I know poor people that work hard too but there are certainly those that just don't want to work (let the wife work while they sit at home ect) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookieqw Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 ive seen people handing out free food in pattaya (market in soi buakhow, near r con chicane ) and i get the impression the people who accept the food are doing it out of respect for the woman who make it.
