This has been the rule in every south east Asian country I’ve ever been in? I don’t understand? Just because it’s not enforced consistently doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be respected? We are a guest. We should not act like we own the place.

this is a relevant question. 👍🏼

well it doesn’t fit 🤷🏻‍♀️ and you’re still mistaken in your interpretation. If you have no respect for my explanation in that regard and insist that you understand me better than what I’ve explained as my meaning, then yes, I can agree that it illustrates you- more than me 👍🏼

It’s sort of funny really, because you’re the negative and hateful one? First you misunderstood and mischaracterized me-

Then I explained that you had misunderstood and mentioned that it’s odd you would jump into a conversation you’re not in and make such an accusation and ‘protect’ the OP… you responded with more rudeness, insisting you’re right- and called me hateful. That’s the most negative shit in this whole thread 🤔

🙄 the OP can take my comment personally, or not (my comment was of a more general nature in regard to some comments here and that are seen so often in this group) and address it, or not🤷🏻‍♀️ Why you’ve interjected yourself I can’t even imagine. You are of course free to label me as you wish.

I love how westerners think they can trick other countries 🙄 tech is everywhere- some small ‘poor’ countries are developing the tech you have in your hand.

Facial recognition and fingerprint scans are everywhere. Jfc

thanks -

I wonder what my friends did to get in trouble 👀

I haven’t been there for almost 4 years. Hopefully may be back again, but India is working so well for me right now…

hm. If you say so. 👍🏼 I’m not anti by any means, but you are just sharing different info than what I’ve seen read and been told. 🤷🏻‍♀️ to each their own 💯 💨

@Terry *******
to a degree, no? I know two different people that had some trouble in the last couple years. 🤷🏻‍♀️

they aren’t only concerned with that. There are no substances other than alcohol and nicotine that are legal in Thailand. Fair play to them, they say they are testing officials first before they allow said officials to create or enact regulations regarding drug use.

This isn’t necessarily new- and especially the inconsistency. 👍🏼

When we stop being shocked by it, life becomes much more peaceful. 🧘🏽‍♀️ 😊

The inconsistency is the norm, that’s when you know you’ve escaped the matrix and are living in a real world filled with actual humans. 👏🏻
