Thailand was an absolute heaven for me! I have no other word to describe Thailand. Heaven on earth! The most honest people I have ever met. The most polite, the most genuine. I believe No human on earth with their right mind would hate that place. I wish I could find a job to stay there forever! šŸ„¹šŸ™šŸ½

How come when you tell friends you're moving to Thailand they ask if you're nervous and if I told them I'm moving to a European country they'd be fine?

Hi Guys

Does anybody know why Thai people attempt to whiten their skin almost to the point of looking like a complete ghost? I think Thai people possess a graceful and noble nature but this issue was brought to light by a sweet Thai girl I met who suffered constant harassment at school wholly and directly because she appeared a little bit too dark for the others who saw this as ugly and uncool. In Africa, a song was made by a musician called Fela Kuti to tackle this self-hating problem. It was simply entitled 'Yellow Fever.'

historical content:

......When it became fashionable for women to cover their upper bodies, different kinds of blouses began to be worn. It is thought that the custom of wearing blouses began at the end of the reign of King Rama V (1900) due to the influence of western fashion.

......and now from this point, they have taken it further by bleaching their skin...

Thoughts on this, please.i
