scasey Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 I always think it's funny when Thai people say to Thai people, "Leave Thailand" when things are not to the status quo. My question is where are they going to go if they could ever leave more than 12 days ? Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put a few bob in a yob's pocket doesnt alter the fact he is an ignorant imbecile....dont you think? I made my point, to an arrogant idiot,, is it your assertion that Thai men don't think the world revolves around them? and we tourist's should just hand over our $ at the airport, catch the next return flight home, and save them the "trouble" of having to actually "deal" with tourist's?.. that they are good fathers to the multiple children they spawn?.. That there's not a large number if single Thai women working in Go-go's to support a child/children that the father has NOTHING to do with?,,,, Is it normal in your country for men to allow, or even push their wifes/gf's into working in go-go's so they can drink Hong Thong at 10am, and STILL feel like they're, "superior"?

These guys wouldn't be able to find an attractive woman in their own country, but become kings of the hill here, acting as if they are capable, attractive and know it all. Even to the point of putting down Thai men and women, with all kinds of cultural superiority to back it up. It doesn't impress me. You choose to travel here or live here, show a bit of respect.

bheard Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 You are talking out of your buttocks on this subject. Thailand has a full employment economy to the extent that millions of people from Cambodia and Myanmar must be allowed in to Thailand to do unskilled labor. Thailand has an under employment and inefficient use of labor characteristic, but this is very different from unemployment. You forget that a major part of the economy is given over to agriculture. The hospitality sector is hobbled because of a lack of workers.The manufacturing sector is in a precarious state because the number of males in the age 21 to 35 age segment has not kept pace with manpower needs. Obviously you are unaware that birth rates have decreased over the past 25 years, while mortality due to "accident" and disease has hit this age group hard. It would seem that you have never grasped the concept of "tongue in cheek" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course some wealthy Thai men act that way as well, but these cultural stereotypes are useless. What impression do you think Thais (men and women) have of Americans, Aussies, Brits and Germans based on the behavior they see of a large perecentage of foreign men who come here for sex and nightlife? I suspect some of the bashing of Thai men comes from foreign men who only wish they had the same money and opportunities. Alas, the closest they will get is Nana Plaza. Talk about jealousy.

midzo Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 22 hours ago, CLW said: I have to defend the Chinese a bit. When I was backpacking this year in China I conceived them as friendly, helpful and interested to contact foreigners. Although before I had the worst expectations and opinions about them. Sure, the have different behaviour and their manners are not on par with western understanding. But I had no problems at all during my travels. On the other hand, I don't know how to describe or explain it, the Chinese here in Thailand are different from most of the ones I met inside China. Probably the same thing you should not judge all English people from the ones you meet at, let's say, Ibiza or Mallorca. Maybe it has something to do with, that different places/destinations attract certain kind of people. My (admittedly limited) experience in China was vastly different. I found the PRC Chinese to be unbelievably selfish, loud and rude. Not to mention filthy. Taiwan was lovely. Friendly, helpful people who queued up at ticket windows, didn't clear their sinuses in the streets and didn't shove me endlessly. Clearly a cultural and not a racial issue.

I've ridden on the BTS numerous times when Chinese tourists have gotten on and been very pushy. On more than one occasion a small group very deliberately pushed people and bumped them with suitcases. They were often loud, blocked the door, and made it very difficult for people to exit or enter. In most of these cases, it was unnecessary. Public courtesy is the exception rather than the rule with the Chinese. It's difficult to believe they are on the same continent.

This is the kind of Thais we need more of...calm and caring--not just sitting and laughing. Praise goes out to the Thai man (with the black backpack) to care. I liked the "nodding" approval of the Thai woman next to the loony when he seeks support from them..........<deleted>. Police told me once " its ok to hit someone just 500 baht fine" its probably ok until they hit the ground and die from a head injury though.
