America has emerged....as an international laughingstock
Not only is Trump in "ragged retreat" he doesn't look well at all, and the thinning hair doesn't help one bit, although he tries to hide the fact with comb-overs and gel. I wonder how long he will last? Then of course is the promise that he would stop the war in Ukraine in one day and look how that's gone, with Putin playing him like a puppet, despite Donny saying, "stop that Mr Putin" (very menacing – – yeah right). I quote below...... "Russian commentators highlighted that Trump is unlikely to bring the war in Ukraine to an end within his first 100 days in office, a timeline voiced in January by Trump’s envoy to Ukraine, retired Lieutenant General Keith Kellogg. “Putin’s truce on Victory Day means that no general, long-term truce will be declared in April. This means that the negotiations are far from over. Russia is defending its demands at the negotiations,” pro-Kremlin political analyst Sergei Markov said in a Telegram post. “And this means that Trump will not declare a truce in Ukraine on his 100th day in office.” Winning again??? -

Why is there this kind of "impossible communication" between farang and thais ?
In a shop, when the Thais seem not to care about you, it's often simply because they cannot speak 'farang' (English). You are a guest in this country, make an effort to know their culture and values. Saitong nueng? What does that mean, may be 'sai toong dai mai krab'? ใส่ถุงได้ไหมครับ I've been living here, for more than twenty years now and earlier even when I came as a tourist, I started to learn some Thai. I arrived in 2003 and worked for a university until I retired in 2017. Now, the Thais regularly congratulate me for my pronunciation. Sometimes I also notice that Thais are reluctant to communicate with me, but once they hear I can speak Thai, they smile and are very friendly. What you describe is not that they look down at you or reject you, they just don’t know how to communicate, and may be there’s something in your dressing or behaviour that chocks them, who knows? -
