brianthainess Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Before Prayut took over to restore happiness to the people, in 2013 Thailand ranked 54th now slipped to 60th. Another fail, he seems happy with his failures, unlike the general population. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klauskunkel Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Quote PM Prayut Pleased with Thailand's Rank in World Happiness Report 2023 until he learned that the uptick in ranking was due to Thais anticipating his election loss later in the year - that made him grumpy, again.

Joe Farang Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Probably too many Whingeing Poms living in Thailand that are caught up in the results and dragging down the score. So it's all the Farangs fault Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We must first define happiness, then decide who is happier first and with the harsh climate in Finland which pushes the population to heat up in saunas at 100°C to survive, it is clear that everything boils down to material happiness.

You are completely right, in this situation Thailand should be ranked 100. It's not that I indicate that Thailand should be better placed in the ranking, I'm just saying that the ranking only takes into account material well-being and forgets about other aspects other western countries may or may not be considered happier, living in a country with such a harsh climate should be lowered in the happiness rankings if one can be first define this happiness ranking well as happiness.
