Well said ‘Dave Rancher’ as I was about to say the same for many Thais have some nasty breath from all that ginger, garlic, and pepper they eat. Have they not heard of ‘Scope’? And how many Thais (yes some beautiful girls as well) been seen picking their noses in public like they are digging for a gold nugget?

Not to mention, how can someone eat at a street soup stall when the nasty smell of Bangkok’s sewers ripen the air surrounding them? Then there are those nasty stinking klongs that fill the air with such a pitiful ooze of rancid odor….But hey I could also mention the nasty dried fish eaten by most Thais as well as the insects…..

Then come here to rural Isaan and you’ll see so many Thais that look like their last bath was during Songkran, last year!

I live in Kanchanaburi. two of my Uncles fought here. One of whom was a P.O.W in a Japanese camp, normaly I would say look into your’re own history to check this out.(Changed from the mame Siam to Thailand…Siam did bad, there fault, )
1; look at yourself.
2; look at your history.
3; look at your teachers/mentors ie religion,politics, govenemt.
4; Thailand attracts bad people because this is how it hasbeen for centuries.

Ther are good people in every race, country and colour.

The Redlight districts of any country in the world have the same clients.

Come on its not just some farangs that humm somewhat is it.
Be honest now either you stink or dont?,

The skytrain is a bloody good form of transport around bangkok,

********Where you go is up to you********

As for Nana Plaza its there if you want it many do some dont!!.

Not exactly legal the working girl trade in thailand is it.

So its not just some horny farang to blame is it ,

Not like the local community care either becuase if you was really bothered about it it will be closed , But hey you dont live there why care.

Go tell Police or something after all the law is on your side…..is it !!!!!!

****it is easier to give blame rather than admit it****

Supply and demand, Eman. You can learn about that in your local library.

if you don’t want all those smelly farangs getting in your way around Nana, why don’t you ask all the whores to sell their wares elsewhere? Ask them nicely to work near a different BTS stop, ask them to move on to a beach resort somewhere, ask them to work in the brothels near their home towns or tell them to go back to their rice farms and wait a few months for rain and nature to help the rice grow so these working girls can harvest the rice and then send it back to your favorite restaurant in Bangkok. But don’t be too surprised if she rejects your noble suggestions.

I suppose its possible Clifford- your options are, a complicated setup where I am helped and so on, involving more people, or a more simple option- I am simply a well read person. I could write my blog in shakespeare English if I wanted to.

Khun Fon, please read Mister Skeptic’s post a bit more carefully.

Of all the posts, this one caught my eye too. It used a number of very unusual phrases. the one I would point to is this:

I teach English at a well-known university here. I frequently encounter instances of student plagiarism. When we find a phrase like this, the red flags go up. More often than not, when I put such a phrase in a Google search engine, the original source comes up.

So let’s say, to be fair, that a native speaker helped a Thai writer edit this into smoother prose.
No harm in that, is there?
