Visa check and type please?  Entry and exit stamp records please?  Online sales business?  You got a work permit?  Interesting "French" accent.

One of the quality French nationals who have helped shape French domestic and foreign policy over the past 25 years. And  now  he is in Thailand helping innovate and create business opportunities for Thailand.

Wonder how much he stole from his partners ?

What type of online business ! Work Permit ! The fella looks as if he is either on drugs or heavily intoxicated yet another reason why I would never go to Pattaya 

So you don't go to Pattaya because people drink, there so you stay at home and don't visit London, NYC,  Amsterdam , Russia because I think they drink there as well. And for those that say he sounds drunk/ incoherent or on drugs do you ever watch MMA or boxing . They call it "punch drunk" after you have taken several shots to the head you don't think/speak clearly for awhile especially if you had to speak in English which obviously is not his native tongue.

Could you enlighten us on these "French domestic and foreign policies"? Be just a bit more specific...

I am also intrigued by the achievements geriatrickid alludes to.  Was this guy some kind of high level technocrat at the EU or perhaps he was a modern day French philosopher following in the steps of Sartre et al. only to suffer a post-existential nihilistic meltdown on walking street.

Not so sure arrogance but a belief that French is still a world language of relevance. 

Why on earth would not speaking English be arrogance? Does anyone say Thais are arrogant because they don't speak English? As far as I am concerned English has become The international language, so just tough for those who chose not learn it. But mind you, the pink anglo-saxons have been dispossessed, as the largest group of English speakers is now composed of brown skinned Indians. Possibly in the near future we might all have to work on our Indian accent.

English is now the International language to communicate with people who don't speak a country's native language. All airline pilots and traffic control operators speak English as you could not have say a  Russian plane landing in China or Thai plane in US and they spoke different languages. They all speak in English. Have also heard that there are more Chinese who speak English than the entire population of the US.

Same goes for international business/companies, easier if they can all speak English than to have a bunch of translators for each country.

If gambling were legal, I would bet 2 million this sap is not nor will never be an airline pilot.

The guy is French, so why do you assume that he speaks English? This is Thailand--get it?

you are not from Europe are you?

 

most educated people know English. we learn it from an early age at school.

clearly the guy can speak good English but he wanna pretend.

got it?

Learning English and especially knowing how to understand and speak it is not a problem of instruction.
If you live in a neighboring border with Italy,
  in first language, and in all logic,
you will learn Italian.
English will only come in 2nd language and then abandoned if you do not have the opportunity to use it.
It is different, if you live in the interior of the country, you will take, perhaps, English, in 1st language.
Mini-Macron takes out words of English in his speeches in French, but that it is null.
