thailiketoo Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) If one lives in a Thai family one watches Korean drama shows where the guys all wear those funny hats. Then of course there is the K Pop. And J pop. Edited January 13, 2015 by thailiketoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eldragon Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 I'm told they generally worship the Japanese and Koreans, and the Singaporeans to a certain extent. Other than that, it probably comes down to the individual. But if I had to bet, I'd put my money on most of em not liking their neighbors here in SE Asia. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EyesWideOpen Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Was watching the news on TV a few years ago with a Thai girl. There was a report about a bus crash in Burma where a bunch of local people had died. She got this happy look on her face and kept saying " good good !! " Guess Thais are still a bit pissed off at the Burmese using Thailand as a whipping post in the past.... Laotians are viewed as sort of bumbling country cousins. Khmers are hated as well due to past wars. Hard to look down on the Vietnamese, since they defeated two world powers and held off the Chinese. So think they are ignored here, but perhaps a little bit feared. Think Malaysians are looked upon as bizarre Muslims who have a bit of oil money, don't know about having fun. and as someone noted, make really crappy cars. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many Thai people speak Khmer and helped the Cambodians during the last conflict. I think if you live in Surin for a while you may change your mind. The Thais fought against the Vietnamese with the Americans both in Vietnam and when the Vietnamese invaded Thailand in the 1960's and 1970's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CodyB Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Thai's don't seem to know much about Malaysia, Indonesia and Vietnam. Perhaps there is little interest. Thai's, especially Issan people generally see Laos as a kinship in fact many people from Issan tell me they are from Laos. There is some widespread disdain on Myanmar and Cambodia. History belongs to the victors and I think there is some pretty heavy propaganda in the Thai curriculum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Thais fought against the Vietnamese with the Americans both in Vietnam and when the Vietnamese invaded Thailand in the 1960's and 1970's. The Vietnam war spilled over into both Laos and Cambodia, and Thailand was the US's ally during the war, providing both logistical support (air bases) as well as troops, but Vietnam never attacked or invaded Thailand directly. There is a strong anti-Communist sentiment amongst some Thais, but this has faded considerably as China's and Vietnam's economies have adopted capitalist practices.

They were trying to blow my butt and my airplane up and my gas dump and my bomb storage area up. It was an invasion to me. The only reason I'm alive is the dogs. Three cheers for the guard dogs that foiled the invasion of Vietnamese sappers into Thalland. U-Tapao and U Dorn were not border skirmishes; they were attacks against American/Thai air bases inside of Thailand, thank you very much.

mikecwm Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 You might as well ask how do the English view the French, or the French view of the English. Most nations despise their neighbours. Seems to be human nature. Even Canadians make jokes about Americans. How do Americans view Canadians? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok fair enough How do Singaporeans view Thai??OP aren't you Singaporean? Singaporeans view thais well some of them have great respect for them in terms of culture, religion, martial arts like muay thai many singaporeans collect amulets and are into the buddhist religion they are buddhists*duh* but singapore doesn't provide a good religious experience compared to living in thailand which is similar to say an american who is a catholic could find a better religious experience living in france or italy compared to being in the US. There are singaporeans who think of thais as good for nothing the guys are lazy, the girls are all prostitutes because many thai women do come to singapore to work in the sex trade and there are legal and illegal mind you an office girl could come to singapore work as an unofficial prostitute and earn a few months wages in a couple of days. It's actually nothing different from how some farang think of thai people and the country itself (the only difference is the people of singapore are asians themselves and i suppose this sort of stereotype of another asian group is solely reserved for farang) How do Singaporeans view Thai??OP aren't you Singaporean? We never want to be same as Singapore. No fun. Everything good, sure, but no sanok. Yup singapore it's all work and no play. Many singaporeans retiring in thailand and their currency exchange rate and not to mention an average singaporeans makes more than an average thai even without the currecy exchange makes them live as well or better than farang.
