tutsiwarrior Posted April 1, 2004 Share Posted April 1, 2004 re: why thaksin don't want his daughter sellin' thai street food rather than big macs...because he don't want to associated with his own foul cuisine...gotta give him credit on that one. Also a minimum 12 hour shift selling khao man gai and kweiteo at the bus station yields the employee 100 baht (tax free)... thank God for cultural imperialism and Royale with Cheese...

polecat Posted April 2, 2004 Share Posted April 2, 2004 Still, Toxin will get news on his poverty war from the front line. What, with all those hobos nursing coffees in the window seats for hours on end. Oh no, hang on. Those are backpackers! Interesting note that the Shineywatered one has stumped up several squillion baht to support an upcoming media art exhibition his laddy is participating in in CM. Real world.

Ricardo Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 McDonald's in Thailand don't serve shakes... Except maybe during an eathquake Hum ... and I like McD's shakes too. Wonder why they don't serve them ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinN Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 BC says "This after studying years in the States and even getting a PHD there, do they teach in Thai at Sam Houston State University? NO BLUECAT, they don't,they teach in TEXAN and you can't hardly understand that either. I can't blame him for his daughter flippin burgers in Mickey Dee,even as bad as that shit is,,It is still better than having to eat Thai Fine Cuisine, So maybe he is just giving a clue to the general public to try it,you might like it. But you can bet the farm that she quit as soon as the press left,just a kinda show job,it did say part time. If he did really go to school in TEXAS then he knows what BEEF should taste like,A Thai sure as ###### don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
englishoak Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 Why Mc D's and not KFC ? after all it's safe to eat chicken right ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plachon Posted April 7, 2004 Share Posted April 7, 2004 Why Mc D's and not KFC ? after all it's safe to eat chicken right ? Because he already did his bit of deep tonguing KFC, post bird flu crisis when he dropped round for a chicken bugger n'chips (rather than the local kao man gai joint), so now it's time (again!) to get cosy with another icon of Thai culture and cuisine- McD's- just to show he's still v. much into supporting Thai businesses, and that's the way he'd like his offspring to go too. Now, was that leader of the "Thai Rak Thai" or "Thai Fak Thai" party somebody mentioned? He gets my vote as "Thai patriot of the Year". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

..::LegalAlien::.. Posted April 7, 2004 Share Posted April 7, 2004 anyone who chooses to eat overpriced nutritonless food is a an idiot That may be the case Possom... But why would that choice then require the person - should he/she live in Thailand - to " ###### OFF TO THE LAND OF GEORGE W"? Don't eat a lot of the <deleted> myself, but if it were to become immigration policy I'd prefer to return to England Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
possom Posted April 7, 2004 Share Posted April 7, 2004 simply responding to previous posts refering to "FOUL CUISINE " and naturally presume anyone stupid enough to prefer mcdonalds to thai food must be american Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaVisionBurma Posted April 7, 2004 Share Posted April 7, 2004 Excuse me for my 2 cents worth, but the old man seems to have hijacked the daughter's thread. Anyone find a link of the publicity shots of the big event when she sold Dad some greasy grub? I'd like to see if she fits the image of the teen-angst fast-food servant!! You're all right about the target factor, having the top job in the country surely doesnt safeguard your popularity with certain minority groups, but I would guess there's some unseen heavy protection going on to look after the poor dear.... McDonalds indeed...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PvtDick Posted April 7, 2004 Share Posted April 7, 2004 Sure, Thai food is wonderful -- but I wouldn't want to eat ANY one country's cuisine day in and day out. Even living in Thailand, I do find I crave American junk food about once a month (I prefer Burger King to McDonald's, though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plachon Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 What's the betting DL's "normal kid on the street" daughter doesn't do more than a week's hard labour at Mc D's. If she does, I'll eat my staw hat and she'll have a severe case of zits to show for it. Still, no point fretting too much, she'll be able to afford a good facial makeover on those genereous wages, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
