Why is there this kind of "impossible communication" between farang and thais ?
A phenomenon that has been pushed by governments to ensure the populace is brainwashed into accepting multiculturalism when in reality the human condition favours tribalism. Go against the multicultural agenda and you are demonised as a racist. All from the WEF playbook. -

Report Filipino Voters Prioritise Job Creation, Food Security, and Healthcare Improvement
File photo for reference only In the lead-up to the 2025 midterm elections, Filipino voters are steadfast in their demands for candidates who can address critical issues such as job creation, food security, and healthcare system improvements. This sentiment was captured in a recent Social Weather Stations (SWS) survey released on April 30, reflecting long-standing concerns among the electorate. Topping the list of priorities is the creation of job opportunities, with 93% of surveyed voters expressing support for candidates committed to tackling unemployment. Equally important to voters is the development of the agricultural sector to ensure food security, also supported by 93% of respondents. Stratbase President Dindo Manhit commented on the survey results, noting that inflation is exacerbating financial strains for many, even those with jobs. "Filipinos are not asking for much — only for the dignity of stable work and the ability to support their loved ones," Manhit emphasized. Another significant concern is the enhancement of the Philippine healthcare system, highlighted by 91% of respondents. Voters are also advocating for the protection of workers’ rights and the welfare of overseas Filipino workers, with 88% supporting candidates who prioritize these issues. Reducing poverty and hunger remains a critical issue, aligning with self-rated poverty surveys indicating that 63% of households consider themselves poor, the highest level in over two decades. Access to education and the rising cost of basic goods are also notable concerns, each acknowledged by 85% of respondents. Further issues influencing voter preferences include tackling climate change effects and improving disaster preparedness (83%), combating illegal drugs (80%), ensuring energy security through renewable sources (79%), defending national security and sovereignty in the West Philippine Sea (78%), and fighting corruption (73%). Manhit urged voters to scrutinize candidates' past actions and platforms thoroughly. "Promises about job creation should not be empty words — they must be backed by clear programs and a history of action," he stated. He also highlighted the need for post-election accountability, stressing that a government prioritizing jobs should protect democratic institutions, adhere to the rule of law, and promote unity. The SWS survey, conducted with 1,800 Filipino adults from April 11 to 14, provides a snapshot of the electorate's priorities as they prepare to vote in the upcoming elections. The survey carries a margin of error of ±2%. Adapted by ASEAN Now from PhilStar 2025-04-30
