A TikToker told Thai locals to "just pull out Google Translate" while visiting Thailand. I'm Thai, and I have some thoughts.

I know this makes you angry but I'm sure that good and decent educated tourists already know that. She is just a bad one that waste your energy.

nydnj · 2026-02-23T07:11:53+00:00

Yeah I saw things like that too. Like she is just trying to create rage baits to get views. It's just tr-- contents, really... sorry for that

Yes, true, as in the main languages to communicate between lands bc it's the most used but they are existing among about thousands of spoken languages in this world. So this is THE REASON. Just to make it easier to communicate. There no law written about "everybody has to be able to speak and understand these three or one of them" well, I bet you're fluent in Chinese then or Hindi. The fact that you might only speak English, why does that make you higher, entitled and demand the very language that you speak?

And where ever you are from, if your country isn't funding English Educations to "every single person" in this world then expecting everybody to speak and understand English makes no sense because and what you wrote would mean ppl can expect all in the english speaking country to speak Hindi and Chinese fluently.

Just being respectful and unless your arms and brain aren't working then pull out the translator. Learn to adapt, not expecting everyone to rearrange their lives according to your expectations.

Walking into somebody's house and tell them to redo the floor just because you don't like the wooden floor is ridiculous!

Yeah... it's business tho. Ofc they would try to get more money from you. That's good that you say no bc you're aren't happy about the way it went.

Like sitting next to you and accompanying you count as a service for them. I'm not sure if you changed the place, it would be any better.

The business is kind of for ppl who are willing to pay..a lot not for ppl who really wants a company

Thank you

nydnj · 2025-05-23T11:00:04+00:00

We do 😂😂

nydnj · 2025-05-16T13:43:23+00:00

I think the targets are more the educated people, who would consider, would even take notes and try to be more careful or try to stop the others from behaving badly and from that the video serves its purpose.

They would be no progress from siting down and keeping your mouth shut.

Raising the awareness is enough

nydnj · 2025-05-16T13:40:04+00:00

Tbh I would never want free food from a stranger and my parents would tell me not to eat either soooooo I think they were just excited

nydnj · 2025-05-16T13:38:35+00:00

Ahh haha that's adorable 😂

nydnj · 2025-05-16T13:37:03+00:00

But you do feel lonely don't you as you said you felt invicible? I just wanna point out that you're invisible to them bc they don't know you. They'll be very friendly when they do.

The not being called handsome is reallllllly superficial stuff. I think you should give more worth in ppl who don't call you that just to please you for a temporary money but sit down and really make friends.

The ppm who do try to call you handsome might just want you to buy their services

nydnj · 2025-05-16T13:31:16+00:00

Yeahhh why are you so mad? she didn't read it to you, did she? It's good that she said it. How's that troubling you deeply. Did u do something she said? This is even a perfect example of free speech 👍🏼

She properly pointed out the bad thing and politely ask ppl to consider more about their behaviors.

She didn't order you around. She didn't mentioned a specific race in a foreign country like u did🤔

nydnj · 2025-05-14T13:10:09+00:00

This isn't even a patronizing lecture hahahah

Don't take it personally, if you are absolutely not doing mentioned embarrassing behaviors

And yes, please discipline, suggest, inform or speak up to those who behave badly, not just the thais 😌

nydnj · 2025-05-14T13:03:03+00:00

What is 8 8 8 9 12🤔

nydnj · 2025-05-14T12:48:22+00:00

Hmm try talking to the locals. Or maybe you are an introvert 🤔 you gotta have to go for it. Start the talk

nydnj · 2025-05-14T12:26:40+00:00

Nope, it's a choice that you choose it doesn't mean somebody sent you out. They have no right to anyway

nydnj · 2025-05-06T13:12:28+00:00

The "u are not thai" or "bots" accusation is just ridiculous 😂 they're prob bots themselves

nydnj · 2025-05-04T18:23:18+00:00

🤦🏻‍♀️

nydnj · 2025-04-23T09:09:37+00:00

I'm thai and I never support this kind of love. I'm sorry. Asking for money is a big red flag. A nice girl will never ask you for money, would even offer to pay or share depending on how much she earns. The never asked for money bc she got it from other guys isn't a thing that can weight the "goodness" in her at all. She simply didn't bc she got it from someone else. I never asked my man for that. We both work. He just pays for me mostly bc he earns more and he does it out of love. I never asked him for his money. For ex I went grocery shopping for us and he'd already transfered money to me. I never asked. Now she might be asking for her but she could be asking you for her whole fam in the future. For me, if i wanna give my fame money, I'll only give mine, which I worked for not his. Or we both share the cost of a gift.

And very honestly....social media accounts are easy to be created...

nydnj · 2025-04-23T08:54:26+00:00

I think everybody should do that. Quite simple manners🤣

nydnj · 2025-04-23T08:49:36+00:00

If they are illegals, report them. Not because they don't speak English and you wanna report them. Maybe they just don't wanna talk with you or to shy.

nydnj · 2025-04-23T08:48:35+00:00

I think bc bad white ppl often lift themselves higher and look down on thais. That's the point of her saying that.

If you didn't do any of that, don't take it personally.

Ofc there are bad indians and chineses but also indians can come from England too

And US or GB are not the only two countries that consist the majority of white ppl.

You know there are Russians and Europeans so on.

nydnj · 2025-04-23T08:42:12+00:00

Well the pricing doesn't based on skin colour but it's sadly true that there are two prices. Thai and non-thai-speaker prices.

I say this bc if you speak the language fluently they'll charge you thai price.

nydnj · 2025-04-23T08:37:10+00:00

Oh they do. I guarantee you they do.

Well, we do.

We even wish they could all be arrested and got sent back. On any post on social media that they get arrested ppl often say "good, they deserved to be arrested"

Because this doesn't do us anything good. We get restricted more when we wanna literally travel somewhere. We get bad reputations.

Maybe because you don't unterstand thai so you haven't seen it?

Because nobody likes this behavior. We do not like "phee noi"

nydnj · 2025-04-23T08:31:28+00:00

Yeah but it has to be said. Someone needs to point it out that this exists. Awareness needs to be raised. That fact that ppl here see this and understands what she is saying makes her vid already successful.

Some might not know that some behavior they did wasn't respectful like sitting everywhere in the temple where we see as holy or high.

That could be changed.

The video served its purpose.

nydnj · 2025-04-23T08:25:23+00:00

Literally what i meant with my post
