I remember watching the Presidential race on TV when Trump was going for office.... The news channels were going around the country posing questions to local residents, trivia, history stuff like that

Jeez is America in trouble !

Would the PM find Thailand on a map? He can speak Thai alright, that's about it as far as qualifications go.

So why are they protesting if they don't even know what's going on and don't even know anything about Thailand  and just protesting to what they have heard on the news. Pretty stupid  would say. just attention seekers   ????

Because they are uneducated peasants.

 

I would wager a lot of money that at least half of the “elite” also can’t find Thailand on a world map.

Or you can just use common sense and realize the report isn’t real and made to make people think the protesters are not Thai, because Thais wouldn’t do such a thing.

They probably aren't, you know how American's like to get involved in everyone else's business.

Ok. Ask most US  citizens to locate Thailand on a world  map and see  what you  get !

Agree, I lived there for 3 years most people knew nothing about the world .

it will be interesting to know who will be using these 30 "demonstrators" as a backdrop for a TV interview or publishing it as "news".

They would find it with no problem, as most of the Schools have a Globe with every other Country blacked out except Thailand.

I was going to comment that a good many Americans wouldn't be able to pin point any country on a map.

When asked by one of the reporters whether they knew where Thailand is on the world map, they admitted they had no idea. None of the protesters could speak Thai and most of them could not even speak English, said the reporters.

So, basically on par with most Thais... Same same, but different.

My Thai girlfriend, when I met her, thought Norway was somewhere close to Thailand, because she had met several people from Norway. She thought NYC and LA were close together in the middle of the continental US because she had heard about them in the same context.
