On March 19, 2018, an artistic rendering of the Bangkok Thailand Temple was released to the public, revealing a 44,405-square-foot, six-story building with a soaring central spire and eight smaller surrounding spires. Behind the temple, an additional 91,370-square-foot Church facility will be constructed housing two meetinghouses, a service center, seminary and institute offices and classrooms, and mission offices and housing." It seems, like Nate, that they've got plenty of money to spend here.... Probably some of it came from him ( if he's still an "active member") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post kennypowers Posted April 13, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2023 Seems to be a lot of spiteful, jealous comments on here that one would expect from a teenager with a bruised ego, not supposedly mature men who have lived an examined life. Let them be; they are young and in love. Maybe it will last, maybe it won't, but they are enjoying their romance as young people should. And yes, they are both wealthy.

Life in Thailand: Jul 17, 2017 "Thais netizens joined forces in an attempt to boot controversial expat YouTuber My Mate Nate out of the country. The latest petition that’s going viral asks the immigration department to cancel his visa and exile him from Thailand. ... The petition, which has been signed by over 50,000 people, demanded that the Thai government kick him out of Thailand because he has “caused public annoyance and disrespected Thai people.” https://coconuts.co/bangkok/news/thais-sign-petition-kick-mate-nate-country/ Nov 28, 2016 Why ‘My Mate Nate’ is the most hated farang at the moment "My Mate Nate, an American expat and internet personality, has recently caused an uproar on social media for his latest prank video targeting Thai millennials — he’s been accused of staging a scene in the video to make the point that most Thai people don’t understand English. The meant to be lighthearted prank video, titled “Farang tests Thailand’s English language education,” was supposed to help Nate Bartling, an American missionary-turned-YouTuber, emphasize the well-known and often-reported fact that English education in Thailand needs serious improvement. However, it backfired terribly after some people criticized Bartling for intentionally “humiliating” Thai people to make a point — just to end the video with a pitch to sell an online English course." https://coconuts.co/bangkok/news/who-my-mate-nate-and-why-he-most-hated-farang-moment/ Edited April 13, 2023 by TallGuyJohninBKK 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you really believe that, your experience is limited to an easy-going and laid-back group of Thais. Len hoo-uh, or touching and playing with someone's head is is as offensive and taboo as it has ever been. Spreading misinformation that it is otherwise could get newcomers here into some serious trouble.
