Population latest: Less Thais but the number of foreigners goes UP! More Thai women than men

[Blumpie]

I believe they lost all credibility with TAT figures.

In my 14 years here there has never been a Census; so how do they calculate their figures ?

By a poll of 1,170 random people probably, just like all of the other numbers they pull out of thin air several times a week.

As I learned from Game of Thrones, "Fewer" Thais...

They hire someone from TAT as a consultant

Actually. The Ministry of Health began raising alarms on low Thai Birthrate for the last 10 years.

 

Couples do not wish to have children, and an even larger percentage are steril. 

 

Combine that information with Immigration numbers and the math is relatively easy to calculate.  

 

Back in 2013, Females began to increase the ratio over males by 1.3 born females to 1 born male.

A=(x-y)×z/(f+j)-h

I take it z denotes if there is an 'r' in the month, and 'h' is the coefficient of exaggeration.

and even when they do have children, they will have like 1, maybe 2 at the most.. previous generations had 5. that's the same trend that happened in the west whcih led to 100's of millions of people imported from downtrodden, war-torn countries or the countries that the US ruins with wars.. the nations are lost and 'democracy' falters.. and actually this forum is evidence of that, not only did birthrates drop but more often it was the indigenous whites that then emigrate to countries like Thailand, even though it will not offer them residency (at least not w/o a huge hassle) so instead they just live here on some 'temporary' visa forever, Thailand offers better standard of living, and more safety.. 

 

let's hope countries the east asian countries like Thailand, Korea, Taiwan, etc. do not go down that path.. it causes great consternation and a conflicted, fragmented society and will probably lead to absolute chaos and the destruction of nations in the near future.. The USA is evidence of that.

The number of Thais has gone down but the number of foreigners in the kingdom has actually gone up slightly.

Let me guess.  Mass human trafficking from Myanmar and other surrounding ASEAN countries to supply the every increasing need for cheap labor.

fewer.  it's a countable number.

YESSSS!! This drives me crazy. Happens all the time. People don't pay attention to what they are saying.

In this OP, what is the actual Thai word used for "Foreigner" 

It seems that "Foreigner" is being conflated with "Farang" in the posts of some here.

 

It should not be a surprise that thousands of foreigners from neighboring ASEAN countries and PRChina would be inflating the documented Thai population.

I would say ID cards and birth/death registry.

They count the legs and divide by 2

Splitting hairs on numbers here, that method would not be 100% accurate. The average number of legs for the human species is 1.99999999.....I asked Sir Paul McCartney.
