6) last question, I do not know why Laotian still think that Thai people in general look down on Isaan people. This attitude is outdated. actually, my hometown is Chiyaphum, one of Isaan province. I can say that most Isaan people do not want to join back with Lao as a united country. A lot of Isaan people accompished in entertainment industry >>>>>>> a comedian, an actor and a singer >>>>>>> even the winner of the STAR 5 is also an Isaan people.
7) A lot of Laotian said that Thai society has a lot of problems, and not good to live. why dont you look back to Lao society, which I think there are also a lot of problems: Human and drug trafficking and corruption and education and public health. Why do you still insist blaming on Thai society? .....................................................................................................................................................
to save my time i wan to answer your two questions above:
why do we think like that, because rich thai people mostly are thai-chinese especially shantouness and chaozhaoness who immigrated to Thailand during the war to settle a new life ,if you know this people very well you would know that they do even look down at other Chinese that not from the same area. lao ppls think that a part of those thai-chinese always look down at people who are poor but sometimes i think we have to understand those thai-chinese, the way of their treat people is like looking down, so lao esan and lao people can't accept it and don;t like them. that was in the past. but now esan ppls became a rich and reputation and became powerful politician blabla,i think now it's big different of how those thai chinese or thai bankgok think about esan people.
7: some people think that the social- problem in Thailand is worse than laos,this is true and no one deny that a big country or big city like bangkok don't have such problem. but for this question i can tell you that the problem that we have right now were affected from the neighboring Thailand,china and other. but Lao government or educated Lao ppls never blame it directly , because now it's globalization . what we wan to blame is that our people,we don't educate enough our young people to know and prevent those problems such as drug, HIV,fighting and other thing that destroying our culture my opinion is don't blame other, just blame ourselves that can't handle it. the gov should find a solution to fight with those harmful problem and educate our young ppls to have more knowledge and self defense .
