no of course it does you replace khon (person) with a nasty pronoun is all

@Robert *******

not at all there is nothing wrong with being referred to as a Black Person or a Brown Person. If you don’t have a problem with being called a White Person then what is wrong with Black or Brown? Black is beautiful, Brown is beautiful and if it were offensive to you then you have some relearning to do. Also why the heck would people name a movement Black Lives Matter if it’s offensive!? It’s ok to be wrong. Nothing has ever impressed me more than a white person in all their white privilege admit they were wrong and learned something new. Khon dam literally translate to Black Person - if you think the term Black Person is derogatory you have a problem.

@Robert *******

Blacks is a politically correct term not “the black” please don’t try to school an American POC on race and racism 🙄

@อาบิด **********

there are tons of farang kee nok walking around 🤣

@Robert *******

khon dam - Black ... that’s the normal terminology and no different than using Blacks in America

I’m sort of Thai (Thai American) and farang usually indicates non-Asian foreigners. Usually Thais will state specific Asian ethnicities because we know the difference 🤣🤣🤣

@Andrew *****

lucky you! You just need to get on someone's blue book (tabein baan) or get a TM30 and go to the local govt agency where the book or TM30 is registered to get your Thai id. Once you have the is t took about an hour to submit an application for a passport. Good luck with everything!
