TYPICAL of the Chinese.

MOST are very RUDE and ARROGANT.

The Thai asked the ladies to go to the back of the line and wait their turn but the two women refused, claiming they would miss their flight in two hours....

Long queue then!

I'm sure most Chinese tourists are very respectable and behave well. But, recently, there have been a worrying number of 'incidents' involving Chinese people. I think China needs to address it.

Actually no, most are not. And it's only "recent" because of the recent influx of many Chinese tourists.

Even the Hong Kong Chinese are complaining about their mainland-China brethren, and there have been public protests in HK demanding the mainlanders GTF outta HK.

The Han Chinese are showing the same attitude towards all other people, as the Thais show towards non-Thais, and the Thais are obfuscated about it, good joke... Maybe the Thais should be told to be 'tha yen yen' about it, like we farangs are strongly advised to when we get irritated by Thais doing the same to us...

P.S. 1: the Thais should learn fast to accept the dominance of the Han Chinese visitors over them, even on Thai soil, as it seems they will see growing scores of them rolling over the country in a near future, thanks to...

P.S. 2: in some other countries I know, the Police 'explains better', with sharp long sticks..., behave as cattle, be treated as cattle...

Are you with that trying to prove all Thais have Chinese origins?

I lived in China. I am a polite person by nature and ended up never getting any money at the bank, tickets at the station, seats in a restaurant. I watched this for 2 months and then I started putting my training as a second row to use.

As an aside: I am always surprised at how well most Thais queue, much better than here in Cambodia and let me not even get started on Vietnam......

And don't forget India. They are masters at breaking in line. Whenever queuing there I start to make my self bigger and bigger as I get close to the front ... i.e., spread by legs and arms wide. But then I still have to be on the lookout for some wise ass who'll slip his money/ticket/etc. under my arm into the window and the bloody agent will take it.

Actually I find India fascinating, but I almost kill at least one person every time I go there.

have elbowed many chinese that have tried to push in, especially at hotel breakfast where they try to snatch the freshly cooked eggs you ordered from your hands to avoid the queue, a resonant <deleted> off and a hard elbow gets their attention but then you have to tell the other chinese that have taken your table and put your coffee, juice and toast on the floor to do the same. They are extremely arrogant and think they can do as they please(thai hi-so's come to mind), something I refuse to back down to.

Quality!

Chinese pushing in front of Thais,i thought Thais

it was like a rugby scrum with lots more players.

The Thais are rank amateurs compared to the Chinese and Indians/Pakistanis.

Pleased to read the Chinese tourists missed their flight while talking to the police.

Justice is served!

Don't these Thai women know that Chinese just bought her a brand new train system?

They have every right now.

I realize that in general people have class when it comes to lining up and waiting your turn. Americans have class. Thais have class Japanese have class as well'

And now the Chinese have proven they have class as well "Its all low"

Some of my funniest moments have been watching Chinese queuing for trains and buses in rural China

They can queue?

The Chinese will eventually catch on. Koreans used to do this a lot when outside of their country. So, too, will the Chinese eventually learn to be a little more cosmopolitan and polite. Until then, enjoy the shows they put on.

Quite so, this is learned behaviour dating from the days preceding the Deng Xiao Ping reforms - days of scarcity of almost all resources. In modern China you see it mostly in third- or fourth-tier cities, and in the countryside - particularly among people in middle- or late-middle age.

While characteristic of some Chinese for these reasons, given the right circumstances you would see exactly the same behaviour in anyone else, of whatever race.

LOL, this is typical behaviour.

I spent a lot of time in China up on the east coast finding factory's to make products and was taken aback by their rude and disgusting behaviour.

in the my first few days arriving I was sitting in a Bank of China Branch changing money and the Guy behind me was clearing his throat and expelling great lumps of phlegm onto the floor. Disgusting

but as I found over a few weeks common. The queue barging was terrible. they just walk to the front totally ignoring you. I had to tell many to F cough..... I could go on and on for ages describing many many instances of rude and disgusting behaviour.

Certainly not like Thailand at all.

No they are not, in general they are pigs.

We can be thankful that the pot noodles stayed holstered this time

Now they think they own the world and can get away with all their BS behaviour

Actually I think they do own the world already. Reminds me of the North American Indians trading vast tracts of land for shiny beads.

The western world has sold it's soul for cheaply made, mostly copied, Chinese consumer goods.

If the Chinese unleash their buying power all at once they could buy up every piece of prime real estate, and every large corporation in the world.

Doesn't mean that they are in the slightest way sophisticated though. Just looks like western consumers are far dumber than they were originally thought to be.

Thais have got absolutely nothing on the Chinese when it comes to queue jumping. The Thais are extremely civilized in regards to queuing. It will change though, when I was working in Shanghai during the end of 90's it was pretty awful trying to put up with Chinese when it came to a queue, for taxis, trains, supermarkets etc. However I have been back after a 10 year gap to work there again for a couple of years and the change is just amazing. It just takes time!

If the people have been segregated and isolated from other countries and cultures, how would they even begin to understand what is / was acceptable? Don't give up with the Chinese, they are actually some of the most honest decent people I have ever met in Asia, and if you are lucky enough to have them as friends, they are the most loyal mates I have ever met, they will do anything that they can to help you.

I had a bunch of Chinese try to cut in front of me years ago, waiting in the immigration queue at the airport. I believe a tour guide or friend had been standing in front of me and when his group arrived he had them all join him in front of me. I explained that wasn't on and he sort of hissed at me or grunted something and refused to move. It didn't become physical but I was quite ready to smack him in the face if it had come to it, but decided that better than getting into a fight while trying to enter the country, was just to walk in front of the group and give him a look that told him pretty clearly that I wouldn't be putting up with any more nonsense. And that worked,

Some of my funniest moments have been watching Chinese people trying to get in and pushing out of over-crowded elevators. It's like two frenzied flocks of lemmings (judging from the squeaking noises they make) assaulting one another.

And some of my scariest moments have been examining the state of restaurant tables (and the floors underneath) after Chinese diners had left.

Edited December 29, 201411 yr by Misterwhisper

so according to coconuts the 2 stupid girls have been detained by the police and missed the flight

good

You should try living in China as I have and I'm guessing you'ed change your opinion.

Surely this is about Chinese tourists outside of China so having experience of the Chinese in China isn't strictly relevant and doesn't alter the facts relating to Chinese tourists in Thailand.

There do seem to be a lot of posters on here who want to bring up the fact that they live in or have lived in China or they often visit China.

Just for the record I've never been to China although I'm currently working in the UK for a Chinese woman.

You haven't seen anything until you've seen "lining up" anywhere in the Middle East. In fact, there are no lines, except at international airports OUTSIDE SAUDI ARABIA.

Travelling with rural Chinese passengers = cattle class

WOW ....lived here six years....traveled all over the country....AND still not sure where to settle? You say you want to BUY! Whoa! ...My advice, since you're so unsure is to rent first....so many good places to live ....pick the wheather you like best ...beach community or country village and then find a place to rent and try it for awhile ....don't like it ...move on.

I was just interested in other peoples opinions thats's all

The Chinese and Indians are famous for breaking the line everywhere.

Its always been a problem with the Chinese for as long as I can remember. 20 years ago in Saigon,my mate a 15 stone rugby player picked a Chinese guy up by the scruff off the neck and carried him to the back of the queue from where he came. I carried his bags.I bet that guy never tried that stunt again.

But it has got out of hand, why don't they have a security guard there to handle it.

The Chinese behavioural pattern is well know ,spitting ,kids urinating in swimming pools, despite signs in Chinese telling them not to. Better get used to it until the next educated generation comes along.

The headline really should be "Confirmed: Chinese People Push In Front of Everybody." Don't worry...they don't discriminate. Take a trip to China, where this kind of stuff is the norm (Koreans are pretty good at it, too). Then they go abroad where it isn't normal and cat fight!

And now that Thailand and China are in bed together, we can expect more of the same from this unruly lot from 'the mainland'. Gives a really, really bad name to other ethnic Chinese who are generally more well-behaved and cultured.
