Doesnt matter how many years we have lived here,if we are not born here or at least attended schools since nursery and been surrounded by Thais then we dont and never will be able to understand this country....Hate to burst a lot of peoples bubbles but thats the truth of it..............CHOCK DEE..........

Do not worry OP, hate to burst your bubble but most Thai's born and raised in Thailand do not understand their own country or its people

How do you know that ?

How do you know that ?

Same way you know we do not have a clue

How do you know that ?

Do we ever truely know anything?

I agree.........We Aint Got A Clue.........thats what the title says.

East and West should never twain.............Mark Twain wrote that...........There is truth in it..........when you really think about it.......but then again what do i know...................Don't take it personal Konying..........I thought a few people might.........truth is a bitch........sometimes.

Thais react to how they've been conditioned by their society and environment. Understand thaose aspects better and it wil make more sense. And no, I don't have all the answers...

There are those that dont pay attention....also that dont learn from there mistakes......But clueless, nah.

Do not worry OP, hate to burst your bubble but most Thai's born and raised in Thailand do not understand their own country or its people

Because to understand something you have to ask the WHY question and most Thais won't ask this...

After witnessing Thai friends asking directions off other Thais on numerous occasions and them coming away saying 'mai chochai', then the English phrase "couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery" is what best describes Thais and Thailand.

The biggest enemy of Government and Religion is Education because the people will start asking "WHY".

So keep them Uneducated and Pregnant!

Excellent post..except I haven't got a clue why you are banging on about not having a clue

Everything you know is wrong.

Then who can judge what is right and what wrong..
