rondii Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 A not surprising reaction from you on an entire race because of the opinion of one individual.taxi driver What a big baby. Western arrogance in full glory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyBowskill Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Well, I'm an American who lived in Japan for 20 years, and I wish I had a nickel for every Japanese taxi driver who refused to pick ME up! Really? I lived there 10 years, used taxis daily and never once got refused. Where did you live and do you speak Japanese? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suffinator Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 It's doesn't matter where you go in the world racism exists ... such is generally caused by ignorance but in this case by those refusing to accept that anything is wrong and who continue to believe Thailand is the perfect country ... it's a bit rich considering most of them couldn't tell you where the US or the UK are on the world map and where few have ever ventured outside. What they need to do is to learn to take criticism and do something constructive with it ... that is to learn by mistakes made and make the system better ... I'm guessing that is not within the remit of the Thainess campaign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuddy Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 The taxi driver is a waste of space in this crowded world When we book our fares to Suv Airport we need to get limo transfers and forget the mean hearted waster of a taxi driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scully Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 To me it looks like the sign is on the outside of the window, just maybe we've all been trolled. In saying that it wouldn't surprise me if it were true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrjohndub Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Prayuth Thainese does not mean that Thais should be looked down by Farang like Japanese. There are pride in every Thais. If Japs make Thai loose their jobs, they have tthe right to stand up and fight for his/her freedom. Viva le Siam. Please tell me this post is a joke. But, anyhow. I say let the taxi drivers dig their own grave. The cost of taxis in Japan, who the Japanese exclude in Japan, and so on are all irrelevant. I'm just enjoying watching these taxi mouthbreathers look more and more foolish, while the clowns in charge do nothing. Carry on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookee68 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Two things, why didn't the person taking the photo also take a photo of the car, and second, that is not racist that is called my choice in Thailand, They are allowed to insult any body, but you are not allowed to insult them, no real news here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bongoz Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Correct me if I am wrong but is there not or was there a Japanese only Soi next to PatPong? caters to thai ladies for Japanese only. If anyone else goes there they will not serve you. Haha, true that. But its apples and oranges I think. Soi Thaniya is not exactly a "public service" sector, although it may seem like it! Sorry I don't understand apples and oranges. If it is not a public service sector what is it? Isn't it apples and bananas... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bitcoinbob Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 I think what the Japanese gentlman did was needed , and I am glad it came from another Asian , would have had no effect on the thai's if came from another tourist or expat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMGImInPattaya Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 What a bunch of cry- babies! Unbelievable! This country get's dumber by the minute! ...and proud of it, they are! Funny you draw this conclusion as the driver was fined 1000 baht and banned from picking up fares at the airport; and the one taxi related official, the head of some driver association, disapproved of the action. But continue on...I'm sorry I had to interrupt with some facts your Thai-bashing rant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookee68 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 They should expand more...... No British, No Americans, no other Europeans allowed.........except Greeks. So they could all go back to Issan and live a happy life thereafter, eating and drinking all day.

If you hold a public service vehicle license you can only refuse a person on the grounds of personal hygiene or drunk or similar scenarios....not on the grounds of race.
