Even someone who comes on this site to support all things Thai can't explain away that one. It's a cultural thing, you have probably already heard the ''Thai rak thai'' concept ''Thais love thais'' where each citizen here is asked all life long to stand together in dfficult times Thailand is still mainly a rural area, and most of these people in low wages employment are coming from rural areas, were the comunities are very interdependent and welded (For a lot of good reasons, i do not develop here) so they keep the mentality. Plus the strong nationalism, a pinch of frustration, an inferiority complex and you have all the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave s Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 This is the text of the reference to the MGR Online article, which is in Thai. It is close to the Thaiger news article of the original post, and appears to be the source that responses #56 et. al. are based on.

But Teeraporn needs no designation of Thai nationality, to a Thai reader of the article. The Thaiger article of the OP does the same. The Manager says that: Mr.connelly ได้พูดจา สื่อสาร spoke communicated กับ พนักงาน with [the] staff ที่ ร้านอาหาร at [the] restaurant เกี่ยวกับเรื่ องอาหาร about food Thaiger renders this in English as "Connelly was having a conversation with the staff about food".

According to the newspapers, and I have specifically quoted above the text of The Manager, which seems to be her reference, there is at least 1 Thai in this episode, so this response is a lie. 20 hours ago, Yinn said: Please.

But none of those things matter to a Thai like Yinn, she cannot "UNDERSTAND".

Or is that just something else you made up because it fits your narrative? A foreigner cannot get a work permit to manage a restaurant, because it's a reserved occupation under Thai labor laws, so if it really is the restaurant manager, he has to be Thai. "Oh, officer, I'm not fighting, whenever I go out on the street I always run with a screaming mob, waiving a club -- and if you don't believe me I'll bash your <deleted> skull in with my club."

PAWNEESE Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Im confused. I have read a report elsewhere saying the American wanted to order something NOT on the menu. He demanded to speak to the manager to complain !!!!!! The waiters would not get the manager .. presumeably because he was not there ! He got violent. He was a big guy. The witnesses to this ... helped the waiters chased him off. No idea what the criticism of Thais / others is about .. but I admit not read all of the thread.

sunnyboy2018 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 If you do a runner from a restaurant you are stealing not just from the owner but from the serving staff who are loyal to their place. Ive seen Brits, Ameris and Russians apprehended sometimes by female staff whilst trying to run away. This also happens in the UK. Restaurant staff will gather together to catch and punish a runner.

I said that passing, eating or even complaining about the food does not create a reaction like this. I also believe that he might have been doing something to get this reaction. I definately do not accept that people get attacked by mobs. Although, that happens in all countries when people go too far. Mostly it probably have to be something much more bad than this to be attacked in another country. However, this was in Thailand and here people react differently according to things and that has to do with culture. People that can´t accept the culture, understand it or adept to it is always getting into problems. For an example: If you would call somebody a water monitor in the US, England or Australia people would probably just look at you and laugh. Here that is one of the most bad things you can call somebody. When dealing with other cultures and do not fully understand them, I am saying that it´s advised to thread carfully. By, the way, thank you. Yes, I meant manners. ???? Few people especially foreigners would know what a 'water monitor' even is. It would be lost in translation. I'm English and I've never heard of such an expression. A milk monitor or a monitor lizard yes, but never a water monitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
