looks like dude from "the hurt locker" had a good time last night!!!
While I can't claim to have dealt with many.. My experiences with moneyed thais doubly so younger ones is exactly the same, using the language status systems to talk so rudely to service people etc that they really do deserve a slap..
Should also say met some older, educated, clearly well off Thais (my lawyer in cm for example) who could not be sweeter and less to that mold.. But status, class level, ego and face are huge here..
The fact the 6 low so staff are rounded up before breakfast.. And when one tried to speak at the press conference to put their side of the story, the pol captain silenced him so they could not talk to media.. Says a lot about how the equality of the law will be applied.
