Video: "Signing into your mobile" - the latest in Bangkok communication

"Here at Thaivisa we wondered what she might be saying!?"

   Why do you wish to know what she was saying?...listening/looking in on other people's conversations was once considered "bad manners"..has this principle now dissapeared (along with many others)?

As someone who has volunteered to help look after a deaf child I understand just how vital this is. The massive problem that remains for people who have emerged from the silent world into a world of communication, knowledge and friendship is that they still cant communicate with the rest of us who dont learn to sign. They are locked in to a small community and its awful hard when they are outside it. Our child cant wait to get back to school where she can have proper communication with a community instead of the blank faces of the public that dont understand her.

This is nothing new. The deaf/muted have been doing this for years

Italian and French people also do it, without  being deaf/mute...

She's probably telling her fiend there's some prevert filming her and the girl's legs next to her on the bus.

I see this frequently on the BTS and in some of the shopping malls. Even see it next to the Nana car park as several of the ladies "working" there are speech/hearing impaired.

I remember watching one girl have what was obviously a heated argument with the other caller...some pretty impressive gesticulation happening.
