Exactly right. We get that a lot on this forum. And you can bet your right nut that some bozo will provide the answer (negative, of course) without having the slightest clue.

If you look at the link I posted it tells you what other Asians think of Thai's including a snippet from a Thai newspaper on the recent discussion.

The last time I checked Asians are all Asian, maybe you're thinking of something different to race.

Actually I don't have any problem here in Thailand. As an Asian to asian they treated us well. Me and my friends are staying here for a long time we have visa and working permit. About the political issue we never try to discuss about politics to our thai co-workers, we never give our opinions about the issue to avoid the problems with thai people. And I think I'm not in the right position to judge them why they're protesting against the government I'm from the most corrupt country also and i feel what they feel.

I hope that this coming year something will change in Asia.

cool question, what do Asians think of Thailand...and who should assume OP meant Thais themselves. Similar question I asked my wife when we went to Hong Kong, "what do you think of Hong Kong"?

Point taken, Berkers, but I just want to know what your average Chinese/Korean tourist actually spends in Patts. They seem to enjoy looking at pretty much everything,and I'm sure the restaurants do well, but as the chairman of the Korat Benevolent Fund I'm deeply concerned for the future of Pattaya. Hopefully, we can continue to rely on your regular donations - God bless you, sir.

Cheap food, cheap sex, and not too progressive.

A few years ago I worked on a consultancy assignment. The assignment was managed by a group of Singaporeans which included some notable academics. From a business perspective I got clear impression those particular Singaporeans didn't have a lot of confidence in Thailand and its business practice.

Cheap food, cheap sex, and not too progressive.

Pretty much sums up my retirement plans.

Will someone ask what Thais think about all others. This thinking duty is not just owned by bigger Asians or westerners... Everybody has come with a mind to think ....

they are less inclined to get in a knife fight over 20 baht with a tuk tuk driver.

Whatever!!!!!

Maybe some caucasians (do you get any colour other than white? I'd like a blue one, thanks) have been to other countries and know what the locals there think . The young engineers where I work take their parents to Thailand on holiday, and never comment or question when I say my family are in Thailand

SC

Pretty women, weird, strange mentality, cannot speak English.

That's what I heard from other Asians. YMMV.

Asians I work with said it's OK for a holiday but dirty.

The Chinese and Koreans I worked with think it's got good golf, beaches and hoes.

They also moaned repeatedly about the service.

Grew up in Malaysia and Singapore, mostly Singapore, and my wife is Asian as well.

In general, most Asians really like Thailand and Thais. There is a generalization that Thais are simple-minded and not as hard working, but kind and patient. Also, as previous poster mentioned, Thais are deemed to be unreliable in business. Many of my Singaporean friends travel regularly to Bangkok for shopping, cheap food and massage or to one of the many beach resorts.

Also heard a couple of stories when I was young of married men getting voodooed by Thai girls. Many Chinese horror movies with black magic themes are somewhat linked to Thais or Thailand.

The OP wasn't asking what Asians think if Thais, it's what do they think of Thailand. It's not necessarily a race issue, and a fair question.

I can only speak from my experience with Indian, Filipino and Singaporean expats working here, and they all seem to love the place. There are the usual gripes but they certainly don't express as many of the negative opinions that you get from the average westerner. They're more used traffic, corruption and all the tough visa/ land ownership rules, so have less to complain about.

I guess Asians are all just thanking their lucky stars having Thailand as their hub.

I think most asians consider Thailand like Americans consider Mexico or Europeans consider Bulgaria or Prague.

It is a place to go to have fun.

I have talked to quite a few japanese expats who say they find it hard working with Thais, since the Japanese are generally serious people (which is very true) and the Thais are very easy going and fleeting. There are major differences in Asian culture.

Singaporeans consider Thailand as somewhat of a mythical place of crazy nightlife, since their own city state is such a bore.

So yeah, I would guess Asians think the same of Thailand as we do, only with some more familiarity since they're the same race.

Of which they have yet to be informed that Thailand has appointed itself the holder of this title.

I feel much the same way about Hong Kong, yet Singaporeans seem to love the place. I guess its like 'old home week' for the citizens of the World's largest Nanny State.

Noted, Khun Worldwide. I'm actually surprised by the general sentiments expressed so far--generally fair and even-handed. But now that I say that, the haters will be out in force.

Frankly, there's a huge difference between Asians in Asia. The Japanese are focused and disciplined, but polite. The Koreans are hardworking but direct. The Chinese, heck, even between mainland China, HK, Singapore, and Taiwan are rather distinctive. And then there's Vietnam, Lao, Cambodia, Myanmar, etc. These last few, along with the Philippines, are probably more similar to Thailand in terms of values, beliefs, and such.

I know a few Koreans and Japanese in Thailand and they pretty much love it here. I think they arrive knowing that the Thais are not the same as their countrymen. They expect that. Wonder why farangs can't do that?

Don't think so small.

There are many non-Thai Asians (Korea, Japan, Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia, Honk Kong) on TV.com who are qualified to respond to the subject at hand. Also, there are many TV.com caucasian members who have lived and worked all over Asia for many years who could have something of interest to say.

I travel extensively throughout Asia (I am posting this from Manila). The single-most attribute I hear is "shopping." Most women who have been to Thailand gush over the shopping, and men mention how much their wives love shopping in Thailand. Personally, I feel the shopping is pretty much the same in Bangkok as in most other metropolitan areas, and the prices can even be higher for some brand names, but when I have mentioned this, others insist I am wrong.

Korean and Japanese men often mention golf. Filipinos mention how beautiful it is. Vietnamese mention how many Buddhist sites there are.

The Filipino press sometimes runs stories comparing Manila to Bangkok, and Bangkok comes out ahead in the comparisons. Often, I get asked if this is true. When comparing traffic, tourist destinations, and overall appearance, I would have to agree with those assessments, but I also think Manila wins hands down when it comes to a wide array of quality international cuisines (last night, I had fantastic Greek food, the night before, equally good Spanish food, for example).
