rgs2001uk Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Dear Thai lady.. If you don't understand the posts here don't worry.. I am a farang and I don't understand them either.. someone said earlier that it is not a good idea to use Thai Visa to understand farang.. I agree.. I would suggest finding farang people you can talk to rather than internet chat rooms.. good luck She is lucky, she has me.......... But remember she is employed to source information from both sides, Thai and Farang. She has learned something here alright. If I read the thread correctly, you helped her set up the account. Any particular reason why you chose such a loaded board name for her? Hardly seems fair to her as it hardly sets her on a clean sheet. Why the need to emphasize that she is a PA to the person whose name she adapted her board name from? Again, hardly seems fair to her. lastly, despite "her" avowed intention to "help" how come she has not tried to answer even one of the real questions that have been thrown her way? All we get is "pm me in Thai, I will reply in Thai" All seems a bit contrived to be honest. OK, she is the personal assistant in Thailand to a previous member's here Thai operations. Her joining was an idea for her to see or look at how farangs talk, speak to one another and also PERHAPS give some info to help others. Plain and simple. She is out of the country at the mo but will l hope post again, but, to be honest the crap that has been dealt out here l have my doubts. We will see. I will see her next week and talk stuff. If she is as you say, she will already understand, its all an illusion, the temporary nature of things. Is she in Scony Botland per chance? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenslegs Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 I would like to be the first to nominate Thaiblether as poster of the year. I'm sure there will be some stiff competition from Ms Jingthaing (Jingthing's PA) and Ms Thaitsiwarrior (Tutsiwarrior's PA). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Hill Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 I know PA means Personal Assistant, Yes, I'm sure a Thai lady can learn off or from Farang but need a point of reference or an example of what? Simon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you've certainly thrown a few gobbets of meat into the crocodile pen today, transam! I haven't seen so much snapping and snarling for a long time. Your young lady PA friend will get (as I'm sure you knew at the outset) a very strange view of farang! Ah well, if she sticks around a while, she'll get the hang of it. In my experience, Thai women (I don't know about the men, not having known many) have quite a well honed sense of humour, which is a prerequisite for anyone dipping a toe in the shark-infested waters of TV.

Hardened Spanker Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 For anyone who believes this garbage...I have a bridge and a very large clock for sale if you're interested?(Saying that I'm sure the bridge will be of far more interest to the OP!)

TinaKohChang Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Weeeell, I must say I am very disappointed with you lot. I suggested her user name cos of her job. No lies, no BS, so folk knew her beginnings to join our forum. Am surprised that our forum ladies have not said hello, as for the guys, weeell again, stuff comes out the woodwork. . I just joined the discussion, so I want to welcome PA to the forum and I would wish that the mop here would have paid her RESPECT with a welcoming HELLO!.

mogo51 Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 I think she probably means Personal Assistant. Well I read English quite well and that is exactly what the lady said she did for a living. She is to be congratulated by wanting to know more about others visiting and living in her Country. PIty more of her fellow country people do not follow suit. Your post was totally unnecessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozybear Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 I am a PA for a former member. I am a Thai lady. I have joined so that I can learn more about foreigners in Thailand. Also maybe I can help you.welcome. You now see this is a forum for grumpy old men. Listen and learn.

I take the original post on face value. If it is a posting by some half wit member, then I am very disappointed. They need to get a life. So I for one would enjoy sharing questions and will assume the post is genuine until proven otherwise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well said, as a farang I welcome the prospect of discussions where we can develop a better understanding between Thais/foreigners, as it needs all the help it can get. If it is a stitch up, then what a pathetic lot we are. I can imagine the member sitting at the end of some sleezy bar dribbling in his beer thinking he is so clever!

David48 Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Thats the beauty of TV. Like a hand reaching up from beyond the grave TB is having the last laugh (well done Big Yin). This must be up there for post of the year, surpassing JT taking a beating on the baht bus. (David48, are you getting this?) How many pages how many replies? Briliiant stuff. The thread of the year is smokie36's OP ... but I had some time one day and helped it along ... But your right ... I've already slipped this one in there. BTW ... "Like a hand reaching up from beyond the grave TB is having the last laugh (well done Big Yin)." ... nice line ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dighambara Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 I suspect you will discover that foreigners are emotionally very much like Thai, but culturally and socially are quite different. For example, we like good food (emotional - right brain), but we woul like it prepared in a nice manner and quickly (cultural - left brain). My pet peeve is being served food with bits of paper (dried garlic) in it. No western restaurant would be so thoughtless as to make the meal difficult to eat.

saroq Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Today I read a Thai language web page, maybe interesting for you. If you cannot translate I can help. It is called 9 Things That Foreigners Do Not Understand In Thailand. http://blog.eduzones.com/moobo/79316 This is just begging for a Thai Visa version of 9 Things That Foreigners Do Not Understand in Thailand" Shall we start with: 1. Why does the Government allow tourists to be ripped off by jet ski scams in Pattaya, Puket etc.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
