rethaier Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Just another example of Thai health and safety knowledge of food handling. Probably e.coli from unwashed hands after toileting or food kept at the wrong temperature for too long. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chongtak Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Hill tribe students again? About one or two months ago it was already Hmong students, a girl passed away if I remember well. Now the turn of Lisu. Are Thai trying to get rid of their northern minorities? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FangFerang Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Let the hill tribes die. They're not important. After all, they've been here for hundreds of years and are not even registered Thai citizens. Thais don't care about them. Why should we? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fabianfred Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Let the hill tribes die. They're not important. After all, they've been here for hundreds of years and are not even registered Thai citizens. Thais don't care about them. Why should we? Bit of a stupid statement, even if done with tongue in cheek... The hill-tribes have not been here hundreds of years, since they mostly migrated from China, Tibet and Burma within the last century. I know the Thais look down upon them as inferior and non-citizens and are only just starting to give nationality and ID cards to those born here, but we do not have to follow such prejudice. One who considers himself above or better than another is, in that instant, the lesser himself by such a thought. Actually the hill-tribes are superior to Thais in several ways...but I shall not expand upon that here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
