FiftyTwo Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 @ LarryBird, So you would rather me ask " What do you guys think of the weather in Thailand today?" I have noticed that no matter what kind of question I ask, there will be people who view it as negative, especially the question that makes them think. I like knowing other people's culture, values, and ways of life. I find it interesting and wondering are we really that different. it was very nice, just right for climbing to wat doi suthep in the early morning. and perfect for the run back down.

Somsrisonphimai Posted January 24, 2014 Author Share Posted January 24, 2014 OP: You have an excellent command of the English language so I assume you must socialise or work with English speaking foreigners. When you pose the question in your OP what are the responses? How about bullet pointing the primary answers and your thoughts on their validity? Thank you, will take note. Quite often I found myself add unnecessary info and off topic when I responded to the topic, and it happened when I speak as well. I need to work on getting my point clear and on topic. Could that be because of being Thai that Thais are often given nondirect answers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah...I love Chiang Mai. The weather is nice, the food is good, and the locals are kind...can life get any better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't really have the direct answer to your post, so either repond in a nondirect way or ignore your request, but don't want to be rude not to reply, and then again add unnecessary response, ah...cannot win, but will respond directly when there is an answer next time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somsrisonphimai Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share Posted January 25, 2014 So are you really the girl in your display picture? Hi, you are very persistence and should get point for that, however, the picture does not relate to my thread, so there is no need to know.

simple1 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 (edited) @Somsrisonphimai: Just noticed the quoted post below in another topic discussing PR possibility for Westeners in Burma. Comes across as a strange post for someone claiming to be Thai "You are a Thai national. I expected that answer from you. You think only a "bunch of dross" are the only ones who would benefit from a PR campaign in Myanmar? Not all of us are sex tourists!"

I don't want to be rude but what is this have to do with this thread? I don't think my nationality needs explanation any farther. And I believe it is time to close out this thread as it's going nowhere. Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Thailand 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CryWolf Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I've not been on TV for long, but long enough to realise that this forum has a few wannabe PI's with too much free time on their hands.... I do agree that this thread may have reached it's final destination, with a few good replies along the way Sent from my HTC One using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OPs nationality given the topic posted by the OP is relevant to creditability However as the OP does not wish to clarify context, no problem...

I have no doubt you are a critical thinker, but sometime you have to take someone at face value.
