    • taurus commented : fort to respect, abide by and understand Thai culture however, my efforts have been complicated by what appears be a series of paradoxes. From my observation, Thai culture appears to be a mixture of socialism ad capitalism. The former being adopted, possibly due to a combination of culture, need and or necessity, by the uneducated whilst the latter seems to have been the prerogative of the educated and those who have the 'where with all'. That may well account for the socialistic and capitalistic attitude: 'What yours is mine and whats mine is my own'. Reminds me of a story where two children were playing together and the socialist child said to the capitalist child, "In my culture we share our toys" whereupon the capitalist child said - "That's OK, here are my toys , where are yours" ? The socialist child replied: - 'I HAVEN'T GOT ANY !!!

    • cracker99 commented : lained to me by her favorate Aunty, who is married to a Frenchman and a Christian. My girl converted to Christianity too about 7 years ago because she said it's good to live your life by a rule system, and Buddhism only seemed to have rules where her brothers were allowed to drink, smoke weed, plus gamble day and night, while her and her mother and sister slaved away supporting them…quite insightful I thought. So she ran away and lived with her Aunty. She dropped another (un) subtle hint re matrimony last weekend. Said she and her Aunty went to visit fortune teller/palm reader. Woman said she would either be married in 3 months or would not meet anyone suitable for 10 years, and if she didn’t marry then, well it would be another 10 years before a guy came along of the right type. I said “we’d best make the most of our time in NZ if you’re going to be getting wed in a few months, perhaps I should look you up in 10 years?” …she didn’t think I was funny
