Thailand Ranked 106th in English Proficiency Out of 116 Countries
I'm a very huge film and music buff, and I have to say you're wrong about this. American and other western music has a huge influence on Thais, and they copy pop music all the time. You can see it in the music you hear here although much of it doesn't flow smoothly like western music and lyrics does. They copy everything westerners do, as it's new to them and they like it, seeing western music is the best music worldwide. The guitar players use western tabs to learn how to play and if you listen to Thai music, a lot of the leads and rhythm playing mirrors western style. As far as movies, Mono 29, channel 24, 18 and a couple of others always have western movies on, with some having them in English per the remote, with Thai subtitles. I've been watching them almost 7 years here and my ex and girlfriend has before I came here. The only problem they have is playing the same actor's movies all the time. What is true is how little they learn here about western history. It pales by comparison to the west and leaves them not knowing the basics of what happened in history. I've had my girlfriend over to watch movies (she speaks good English) and most of what we watched she knew very little about, such as Hitler and the war, Japan and the war, Kanchanaburi and it's role in the war, and many other things about history. They watch action movies here in theaters and at home, so they know a lot about them from that. -

Road Safety in Thailand – a summary of Perceptions and Reality
Repeating yourself louder doesn’t make you right. You keep insisting ‘we understand’ while proving, over and over, that you don’t. Saying ‘attitudes won’t change’ is just defeatist nonsense. And shows how what little grasp you have of the topic. Plenty of countries have improved road safety through systemic changes—better laws, enforcement, and education. You don’t fix a broken system by blaming individuals while ignoring what shaped their behaviour. You probably don’t know of the conference coming up on the 26/7th Feb - "Roads & Traffic Expo Thailand" is a road safety conference held in Thailand in February, taking place on February 26-27, 2025 at BITEC, Bangkok. Will you be there? And your bizarre rant about women? That just exposes your mindset—you think problems are ‘ingrained’ rather than fixable. That’s the lazy excuse of someone who’d rather complain than think critically. And now you have returned to using the word “culture” in a way racists do to try and deflect from the fact they are basically racist ideas. As I said before there is stupid, stupider and racist – and so long as you think along those lines you will NEVER understand how to deal with road safety in Thailand. It seems the irony of including the definition of assumption is lost on you? -
