When is to much to much?

[Foexie]

Last week me, my wife, some family of her and the puppy went to a waterfall near Pattani for relaxing.

I mention the puppy because it was so hot and she likes to play in cool water.

 

So the wife and family go for a swim and me watch the pup.

After a while it started to feel bored so i took it for a walk direction the water planning to let it go in the water.

 

At the edge of the waterfall i saw a board with some rules on it.

One rule was: no pets alowed!

 

Ok that's a bummer so we walk back.

 

After a while we go strowling again and we pass a little shelter where some rangers stay in. That time i asked one of them in little thai i speak if the pup really can't go in for a swim. The man answered " mai". And when i asked why not, and i guess he didn't speak english  because the only thing he could answer me was "islam".

 

I respect everybody for his thoughts and religion and to be honnest sometimes i really not understand why somebody think or do this or that but so be it.

 

But how can it get this far in a country what always been buddhist, and still is 90 or 95% if i'm correct, that again an islam minority get the rest so far the change the rules for them?!

 

Is it really going to be the islam way or the high way????

[stoner]

please tell me you are not this ignorant. pattani is not a buddhist area of thailand at all.

most of the people in this region are actually ethnic malay muslims. in fact pattani shouldn't even really be a part of thailand.

I haven't been this outraged since the local mosque denied to host my pork BBQ.

If it's not a Eurocentric way, it's just civilised. 

[biervoormij]

Why did you even ask?

 

If the rule is posted follow it. I can understand not everyone wants to swim with your dog. If they allow your dog then every pit bull can jump in as well.

When will people stop posting articles with a title that delivers NO CLUE as to what is being asked?

Pattani is mainly muslim.
Read a history book, perhaps.

Perhaps it's easier to simply say it's religious, as less people are likely to argue.

 

They probably just didn't want animals <deleted>ting and pissing everywhere and possibly attacking children.

 

Seems fairly sensible.

I love when people put their pets rights above humans.....maybe the pup can get a lawyer...

 

Nothing i like better is when i get some of that water in my mouth when splashing about...did the pup enjoy songkran?

Proverb:

“If the Mountain won't go to Mohammed, then Mohammed must come to the Mountain”
Meaning:

 If things aren't going your way, you'll have to adjust to the way they are.

Next time take a large plastic bowl and fill it with water, let your puppy play all it wants.

Next time put your dog in a Barka ????

Too, not two, not to, too.

[jesimps]

Too much is when "to" is spelled wrong. Unless you aren't an English speaker, then you may be excused.

Yes indeed and for reference:

 

Pattani, also spelled Patani, town, southern Thailand, on the east coast of the Malay Peninsula. The town is located at the mouth of the Pattani River. Pattani was an independent Muslim city-state, ruling a large portion of the surrounding region until the 16th century, when it became a vassal state of Siam (now Thailand). After 1800 it was divided into seven smaller units, which were incorporated as Siamese provinces in the early 20th century.

When people still dont know the difference between "to" and "too"!   Its just too much to handle!

 

One-one was a racehorse,

Two-two was one too, 

One-one won one race.

Two-two won one too!

Heh! Heh!  The UK used to be a Christian country, look at it now, an ethnic "minority" PM.

Also what about Scotland? A Muslim First Minister.

Thailand may have had a soldiers government for the last nine years, but even with a soldiers mentality, that sort of thing would never be allowed to happen in Thailand.
