glegolo Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 With so many clueless, narcissistic youths of today, I wonder what the society of tomorrow will look like. It will look EXACTLY the same.. Mostly because the older generation was exactly the same,,, and has always been like that.... Glegolo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teezza Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I think you guys are all wrong. Thai students have heard of Hitler. This is a school in Chiang Mai couple of years ago. Look for John Lennon and Mr. Bean!! nazi03.jpg article-2042097-0E18650000000578-484_468x529.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevvy Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 How many Americans know how many states there are in their country . I lived there for 3 years and was amazed at the locals how little they knew about their country and the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johpa Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 How does one expect Thais to learn world history when the current long-standing laws on the books prevent Thais from being taught their own history? As one respected journalist recently inferred in an interview, "being Thai" has become part of a religious cult that has nothing to do with Buddhism, and thus speaking the truth about their history could be seen as a sort of blasphemy. It amazes me that out of this medieval academic mindset Thailand produced the world class history academic Thongchai Winichakul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winniedapu Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 With so many clueless, narcissistic youths of today, I wonder what the society of tomorrow will look like. No need to wonder BillyBob, you already know. Depressing isn't it? W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oziex1 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 I spent 3 years with a lady in Thailand and found it quite fascinating and disapointing that a 40 yo had never heard of WW2, Vietnam war, The Beatles or the Stones or many of the other events that define the recent history of the world. I showed her where I lived in Australia on Google Earth her disinterest saddened me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
