HerbalEd Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 If the farmers wish to dun people for money, instead of begging from astounded tourists, I would think a better idea would be to find out who has the 400 billion baht that is missing ( Thaksin and fellow elites), and go get their money from them..... Is that an over application of farang logic ? If you actually think the farmers could do what you suggest, then I'd say it's "an over application of farang" stupidity.

HerbalEd Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Why would Thongchai think that foreign tourists would care about Thai farmers' plight? The Thai farmers should go over to the Royal Bangkok Club and beg. It was interesting to note that airport security personnel and management didn't stop them from "annoying" tourists. This is just what Thailand needs is to have different groups begging at the airport. If it's okay for the farmers, then it should be okay for the rubber growers, and the food vendors. Everyone in to the pool and let's go begging from foreign tourists. This make TAT very happy. I'd say thirty-minutes of "begging" ... as you call it ... is way better that closing the airport down for a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HerbalEd Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Shame? When you have nothing left what is shame to you?? Shame, no need to eat? Shame, no need to feed the family?so ur solution would be to beg? What about finding other work that pays u salary to feed urself or ur family?Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Thailand Are you actually as naive as you seem? Or just plain heartless?

HerbalEd Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Hypocrisy at its highest! Farangs are not allowed to even join their friends at rallies and face imprisonment and deportation THAI, however, are allowed to intentionally incriminate foreign tourists! Should I add "Racism and discrimination" at its highest, too! Is Thailand so desperate to proof it is absolutely incompetent to distinguish between Right and Wrong? But, I need to pay credit, too. It helps us to faster realise, to better stay away. It's the most pathetic, and controversial country on this globe. Thailand, you're truly "amazing" ! = = = It also shows clearly, that Thai people are just after ONE thing - and that is, the FARNG MONEY! In such efforts, Thai receive even the support of Thai police and other officials, etc. Pathetic, disgusting, despicable! Yes you are. All three.

HerbalEd Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 People come to Thailand for a holiday on their saved cash for such a holiday. They should not be subjected to beggars at the airport on arrival and the Police should have them removed. The Gov is now paying them, so bugger off. Is that true - the government is now paying them? How many, how much? That's easy to answer. The Farang did not buy the rice, which the government tried to sell, Hence, the government couldn't pay the farmers. Result = whole Thailand blame the Farang, All is well - Thailand is good, falang is bad! You just make it up as you go, don't you? You obviously don't know that the Chinese recently reneged on buying a million tons of Thai rice. And where have you seen/read/heard that any farang countries have rejected buying Thai rice?

LindsayBKK Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) Why the donation box? I thought Suthep had collected more than 20 million in 1 day last week for the farmers? Ha Ha I doubt it would be for the farmers, more likely his pocket. Just another one on the bandwagon ripping of the Thai's. http://bit.ly/1eIlhSpThat money was for legal expenses This is why some people fall behind the information trail. Try to keep up boys.

I agree that most Farang don't understand the problem and also that is was a good idea to go to the airport, however your comment that farang should pay the rice farmer this I don't understand, why should we pay? We did not cause the problem. The govt caused this problem, they need to sell the rice and pay the farmers. The USA and other countries already give Thailand allot of money each year for programs.

Forum tip: when you get wrapped in quote unquote mayhem, click the BBCode button on the top left, then edit things manually so that each block is consistent. Click it again to see how it comes out. Thanks for the tip. In all my years here this is the first time any Thai has confronted me and outright that ex-pats are responsible for their problems. I guess my workers if they think like this they are afraid to say anything same with friend or people in the village I live in. In reality it does not matter where you go in this world you are going to find people that are racist and blame others for their problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's close all the businesses of foreigners companies in Thailand and you would see how economy will sustain well.

Most of the foreigner living here loves Thailand, and suffer to see the way corrupted politicians and your kamnan thep are throwing this country to hell. Blame on the foreigners is an easy sport... but so dangerous. You say look how corrupt is this country now, is never been like that? How is that related to us foreigners working here and paying taxes? Having business here and paying taxes? Or just visiting here and bring capitals to the tourism industry? Come on, you can do much better, or you can go and join your brother in your crusade, at least you can do something you really have passion for. We are foreigners, we can make ourselves an idea of what is happening, but at the end of the day, we don't have any role in Thai politics.
