Phuket: Showing kindness in a crisis - Thai helps foreigners in virus distress

You should feel ashamed!

no you shouldn't. We don't know it's a PR from Phukets leaders or not.. Why is there a photo of the opened food box. Cooking for the photo?

Anyway. It would be nice if Thais learn that they have profited for so long from farangs and it is a good thing now to give back a little and care about farangs...

That is just human, not heroic in any ways. Still I would like more such stories, not to impress me, but to show Thais that they have guests and need to take care about their guests. A step in the right way. Let's hope more of them drop the slingshots and follow this guy...

Two weeks later, that guy came down with covid-19!

It's a cautionary tale to stay away from all farang!

 

crisis will bring out the best and worst in people. A cheap, simple act, but it went a long way towards helping others, and I am sure they will never forget the gesture, regardless of how small it may seem. 

Why not make it official?

To all backpackers and beggars in Thailand: "FREE food and drink in Phuket" 

an inherent buddhist instinct manifested by this person's act.

funding is possibly an issue with the thai economy being impacted from poor troust figures, bad auto industry  and even impacted crops. help is possible in a limited but not in a blanket way.

Now heres a thought, what about all members on here now they are saving money not buying beer, dipping their pockets, and giving some poor Thai people a bit of food, you know just like the Thai man did for farangs.

I did that, milled about 12-14 kilos of rice, wife handed out to a few poor people.

Come on you lot, get up of your backsides and do your bit, help poor folk.

i  give  the  peanut  seller  20 baht (cash) every  time i see  her.I  dont  like  peanuts

We see his name, he is in Phuket, but if we knew his exact location, it would be very good if the expats living there were to support his business in appreciation for his good heart. If we did and it hit the media it would be a great lesson for all.

Posts like this - by people who seem to hate Thailand and find the people revolting - are in my opinion ruining this forum.

 

It is a forum about Thailand. Why such people post here is beyond me. Why would anyone linger on a forum like this if they genuinely dislike Thailand?

 

It's sad.

Ah, a bit of mindless heckling, very helpful. Why don't you instead try and construct an argument against what he has said, but be careful, because he is factually correct about the Phuket-based farang bashing Facebook page.

 

And although it might be considered cynical to think this man’s kind gesture is contrived,  the timing and publicity, reek of a damage limitation stunt. There are plenty of poverty stricken Thais that are far more needy than these recipients.

I haven't heard of any attacks in Thailand. I have heard of 1 incident in the press in the UK (which any sensible person was appauled by) and there will always be someone who is a total idiot. But if you are suggesting that racism is worse in the the US, UK and Europe then Thailand then you are wrong. Thailand has very obvious problems in respect to it's attitude towards "farang" which starts with the government and runs through society. I myself was attacked in Thailand and I know of at least 2 other people who had nasty experiences. We left because we didnt want our son to grow up in that sort of culture. I think you should stop living in denial when it is so obvious. Thailand has a lot of growing up to do.

Just out of curiousity, you obviously do not live in Thailand, dont like Thailand, dont seem to like the people or culture. So why post here at all? To spread your views into others?

 

I have never been attacked, experience no racism, and live a good life here. I read this forum as often I get viewpoints from others who share a love or like, of Thailand.

 

But I often wonder at those who seem to be here to spread their dislike of Thailand, who constantly talk about all that is bad about both Thailand and the Thai people.

 

I can understand that people can dislike Thailand, but wanting to spread this dislike is strange to me.

What a nasty inflammatory comment. I have read what he wrote and nowhere does he say that he hates Thailand and finds the people revolting. He does not say that he genuinely dislikes Thailand, but that hasn't stopped you from replying to what you obviously wished he had said rather than what he did

 

……. it is people like you that are ruining this forum, by trying to put words in other people's mouths just so you can rant at them.

Anybody else read this in Prayuth's voice? - "if you criticize anything that means you hate Thailand". Nice try. Note I haven't said a single thing here suggesting I "hate" the country. All I'm doing is asking questions about this story's authenticity in the context of a huge online group of people who CLEARLY hate farangs. But I'm the "problem". Nice.

Dude, you are full of hatred for Thailand and are completely wrong about the Spotlight Thailand page. Had you bothered to ever learn Thai, you would have perhaps learned a thing or two about Thais and Thai “sarcasm”. The comments about threatening to kill foreigners is total BS by the way. You’re either making that up or taking things completely out of context to fit your warped world view that is the hatred of Thailand.

 

The Spotlight Thailand comments are Thais mostly just joking around about farangs.

Please stop spreading upsetting misinformation about Thailand. Comments such as yours do great damage to Thai-farang relations. Sadly, many will believe what you have posted to be accurate information. It is not.

  

Bro, if you're having the time of your life in Thailand and everybody loves you then I'm genuinely happy for you. I don't have a problem with happy people going about their happy lives.

 

What I DO have a problem with is people who think their **** don't stink.

 

Seems some people either have a terribly short memory, or are deliberately glossing over the facts. I'll let the comments of many Thais from Spotlight speak for themselves:

And then there is the video made by the admin of the page in English which has since been taken down (I think there's a copy on YouTube someone uploaded but can't find it) where he clearly says

"All foreigners - young, old, man, woman, child"

"You are s***t"

"I hate you"

"Go home and die"

 

But apparently this is all fine because....... it's a giant joke! Hahaaaaaaa. 

 

I guess he took down the video of his racist ranting because it was too funny? And he has never made a public apology to foreigners and clarify his position because he's too much of a funny guy?

 

Can I make a FB page calling on all farangs to get slingshots and shoot Thais that are out and about? And make videos about how all Thais are "insert-derogatory-slur-here"? Then when I get called out for it just claim "guys guys guys.... we were just jokiiiiiiiiing"? 

 

The guy got the FB ban-hammer and was exposed for the hate-driven farang basher that he is, then removed all evidence and all English comments pointing to his garbage, never issued an apology/statement and is now growing a second FB page. But somehow I'm the problem for pointing out that a feel-good-praise-the-Thais Phuket story at this exact time is a little hard to believe?

See, I completely agree with you here. Phuket is a pretty awesome place (built largely on visitors' money). The difference is that I also believe THIS is the motivation behind the article. Damage control.

 

I'm not here to rain on your parade. If you're living the life then all the more power to you. But if you're going to claim people like myself are the problem, then I'll say you need to ask yourself one question -

 

If a gang of angry locals with slingshots come round your house today, are your amazing friendly Thai neighbors who've only ever treated you with "kindness and respect" going to stand up and defend you? 

 

We all know the answer to that.

So you felt a story about Thai helping tourists needed balance? Is that it. Anger welled up in you because something nice was being said? A story about kindness has caused all of this regurgitation?

 

I think all the Thai bashers should leave this forum and never return. The result would probably be wecomed by Thai people who drop in here from time to time.

Not balance. Context and healthy skepticism. Is that something you're against?

 

Keep peddling the hateful-farang-filled-with-rage narrative.  

Nice to see a kind gesture. Good on him for helping out. Now, what we really need to see are major acts of largesse by the super rich, who have made it a habit of hoarding their fortunes, even in such times as these.

I agree that some of the things we have seen since the outbreak of this crisis have been sobering and disappointing. However, I also do have to say that overall, I still think that (most) Thai people still have their heart in the right place. I think we shouldn't judge all Thais by the bad, and unacceptable behaviour of those that post the most outrageous comments on FB.

Come on you lot, get up of your backsides and do your bit, help poor folk.

Virtue signalling at its finest.

 

Everyone who does something kind doesn't feel the need to post about it. It's what you do when nobody's looking that really defines one's character- something that's completely lost in the narcissistic world of today.

 

Love the range of those kilo's of rice. Personally, I'd have gone with a narrower range- a 2 kilo difference seems rather wide...
