    You are one cheap bastard. You chose to stay in cheap hotel what do u expect?

    And about your bad experience in Thailand, you probably made a mess, got caught by Thai police, then had to pay for a big bail. But at least they let you go...

    Try and pay the same amount to get yourself out of LA cell and see if it work.

    I spent big money to American government but I don't whine about it tho.

    You're one cheap and whiny mofo.

    If you're not ready to party, just stay home and save y

  • For some rude comment. What do you think about smiling?

    There are many kinds of smile. Different types of smile are something

    that Thais are socialized into from birth as a way of interacting with other people.

  • Please think and change your mind !! I am Thai people and I didn't came here to fight with some rude comments . Some people are smile from their heart because they have fun to have a tourist from oversea and make them happy (the same feeling as we help someone and we feel happy). And it's rude That you say our king didn't help any poor people!!!

  • When I think of Thailand I smile too.

  • Never have I seen so many fake smiles in one vid than in this one!

  • I like to add that I prefer a thai fake smile instead of a real scowl on the face of white people I see almost daily! in USA. american people are so rude and unfriendly.

  • Nice video, one of the best Ive seen. Ive been all over Thailand, and its very true.

    There are good and bad people EVERYWHERE, but generally in Thailand the people are extremely friendly.

    I LOVE Thailand from the far north to the far south.....

  • Thai people are horrible, they see foriegners as dollar signs and are decitful bastards. I had really bad experiences with many thai people. In the end of my holiday the people reminded me of the cockroaches I saw running up my hotel walls. Thailand is a dump in general but has beautiful scenary.

  • @bluelagoon10023

    that's what happen when you stay in a cheap hotel or hostel. i see cockroaches in the western world as well. cheap ass tourist.

  • Plus, I actually think a lot of Thais are scared of foreigners becoz they don't know how to speak English well enough - not confident and shy to embarrass themselves.

  • Thais are not fake. We smile becoz we are happy!!!!!!!! We like to hang out with foreigners to learn something new. We are humble, not conceited. Thai smiles rule!

  • great Video , funny and simple !!!

    love a thai women and thailand !!!

  • Thais smile because they want to make visitors feel welcome? Let me tell you why I think most of the time its fake.  For whatever reason or concrete motive, they respect white forreignors because of what they look like and the advanced civilization they represent. Thais think they gain status/credibility by associating (or appearring to be associated) themselves with caucasians/their respective countries so that they look good in front of other Thais.

  • Companies associate or quote western countries to make their products credible. Thais mostly don't speak western/european languages to practice (which would be a good reason) but they do it to look/sound like they're worth more in front of other thais. They'll try hard and loud even when the accent/pronunciation/grammar is appalling. As long as they look like the bog shot in front of other Thais.

  • They'll hang out with caucasians (maybe they're truly friends at the same time...why not) to look like they're westernized and have a background of higher status with their supposed skills in foreign language and culture. It looks like they're of higher status than other Thais.

  • You think they'll use Thai products/merchandise to keep their economy alive like their government asks them to do? That'll be the day. God forbid they are caught using local thai ghetto products cause they won't look as sophisticated and high class as they would if they use western/european products. Do you think these thai policymakers/politicians use local thai products as their main flaunt?

  • While they smile in front of caucasians, they treat other thais and fellow countrymen like $hiT because they want to look better than others (other thais). THAIS ARE FAKE. Every miserable bit of them. I'm not saying every thai person is like that, but this is a generalization for a reason, the majority are fake, especially Bangkokians.

  • @MrInternalcombustion

    it is very sad to hear your comments from the country you are living and working in. i feel bad for you. you need to see a professional help. and if you don't like thailand may be you should move away. a wanna be someone big. stupid ass.

  • The "Thai smile" is a total myth. People smile in every country, not just Thailand. Some Thai people never smile. Just be yourself and judge other people as individuals. The content of your character is more important than your nationality or how wide you smile is.

  • The Thai smile is a defence mechanism, nothing to do with being friendly or happy.

  • HAHAHA i love thailand, and the poeple

  • falang ding dong

  • they smile because they are khmer..lol

    i'm not kidding we khmers smiles a lot even after the war.

    its truth and there no argument for that

  • That's is so reasonable

    sarcasm

  • smile to your very super stupid question!!!!

  • what is the name of this song

  • Comment removed

  • i love the part when the angry face appear n the farang baby cry.. hahaha..

  • YOU FIND THE LIFE IS STILL WORTHWILE IF YOU JUST SMILE :)

    PS: IM THAI xD

  • Anyone on this planet can smile but the way thai peoples smile is the most beautiful cos i love to smile ^^

  • Yes the Thai smile is beautiful, though many tourists only see people living on their money in red light zones where the Thai smile is troubled......

  • why you are so specific that only Thai peoples smile in this world??? what are about the others nationalities in the rest of the world ..they don't smile ? neither they don't know how to smile ??? you are such a snob ...

  • its a clishe dumbass, dont take it serious!

  • i guess they smile cos they cant speak with others

  • HAHAHA i like it

    Thai people are always smile

    Yepp!

  • Great video, ignore the idiots who obviously know nothing about LOS! You have an amazing, beautiful, friendly country, little wonder you smile ;)

    Thailand has faced hard times this past 10 yrs, and still is, with some poverty ridden cities but Thai's make th best of it and smile their way through it knowing Buddha will help them. If my country was so up front and lovely I would be smiling too!

    Thanks for the video. I cant wait to return to LOS very soon :)

  • i'm thai, and i love to smile. I have another reason why you shouldn't smile>>> i lost a job once by smiling too much. i worked as a waitress at a thai restaurant, my boss was thai. lots of customers loved my smiling face, and warm welcoming. my boss hated it, she said thailand isn't a colony of any farang's countries so don't be too nice to them

  • 3.24 lmao

  • ur so smart to point out the obvious...

  • I have seen Thai people reserving their smiles for the dollar stuffed farangs only, not the khaegs or "nigros" (they still say that) who are poorer and uglier. In Thai Airways flights, the hostesses take special care selectively of farangs only. So there is a method behind the madness.

  • apbasu, "Nigros" are uglier? On which planet?

  • lol I hope these Thai smiles could help us in nowadays situations in Bangkok :P

  • Sawasdee ka...I love the way you present our thai way of thinking.These days in globalization era, I realize that thai optimistic thought helps us get through stressful situation.Keep doing what you do and don't be distracted by any negative ideas.Internet is a true free stage of expression....Everyone has right to express their ideas.....From each one's point of view,you can estimate what kind of world surrounding them they live with......You did a GREAT JOB.....:-)

  • When I am in Chiang mai, I can see thai people smiling all the time and I can see foreigners(falangs)not smiling . They are in holidays , they are welcomed , they have money , they have everything to enjoy but they not smile so much ... Why they not smile ? After few weeks they begins to relax and smile , but too late , they have to go back already to their countries where smiling people are fools . Poor falangs !Don t think too much loy ... SMILE ! Life will be more easy .Thank You thai people

  • I think Thai smiles are so disarming. Stressy farangs/foreigners should get a grip and get with the free flowing happier than normal lifestyle there. Yes not everyone is an angel, but even the devils like Thai taxi drivers who tell foreigners "Meter not working!" are still far more fun to deal with than the grumpy faces I encounter daily in London. Lol on the other hand if Tesco & and other global companies keep on spreading like a virus in Thailand they'll end up as grumpy as your average Brit

  • i love thailand and thai people are the nicest in the world! their smiles are real. I love thai culture.

  • thai ppl smiles alot becuz they want to

    its just human nature, and beside, they don't smile ALL the time (cuz that would be scary)

    they'll smile if u greet them or talk to them first (even if they don't know u)

    unlike most of the western countries

    thai ppl care about manners ALOT that it became their habit

    thai ppl usually keep their hatred inside too, they don't really show it out

    bangkok guys are hot too^^ those white and tan guys sooo hot!!^^

    like mario maurer!!!

  • In my expereince and research I have come up with a saying, "Behind that Thai smile are some very sharp teeth", and this is especially so for Thai females. Foreigners beware, Thai people already know what i mean. A Thai smile does not carry the same currency that it does in the west.

  • Proud be Thais!!! Proud to smile to people!!!

    Thais are the best lol

  • I love laughing and Smiling 555 :):):)

  • Just smile ! What can I say or explain more? I personally usually smile too.

    Smile is priceless. If your mind smiles, you will smile. And you cannot pretend to smile all the time.

    Smile smile ... smile ! Why don't you smile to people. Then you will get smile from them. And then the world will be in peace.

    Keep smiling and you will know how good it is not only to yourself but also to people around you.

  • sawasdee krub thuk khon,hello everybody ,i have lived in thailand for 2 yrs now the people are very friendly they like to smile yes its just there way of saying hey hello,i understand many thai people not understand english and not feel that its neccesary especially the old,the young like to learn english but the teachers cant perform miricles and get everyone to listen,the 1 thing i hate is the word farang and thais gossip about you and think you not understand i tell after(phom kao jai khrub)

  • lol so I think, we've gotta crete a new word instead of farang and we will not let any farangs know the meaning lol

  • We all know you want our money and half the time you're just hiding your true feelings or saving face. That's ok mai pen rai you deserve it. God bless the king and all Thai people everywhere. :-)

  • man, you should stop going to brothel all the times that might change the way you think about us and learn to live with normal people not a whore!

  • Excuse me? I have never been to a brothel and I have never paid for sex. I take your insinuation as an insult.

  • bootleg cambodia?...are u insulting thai people?

  • the friendly smile !!! I like Thai people.. Long Live Thailand King Too.....

  • How to make this clip more popular? Link to it, on every blog you can think of where it might fit in! And if possible, link to it using the text "Fake Thai Smiles" or just "Thai Smiles", that way if people do a search on "Thai Smiles", they will be more likely to find this video!

  • i agree with lakkhana .. we must think of a way to make this clip a lil more popular since its a very thoughtful clip...well done to the poster!

  • another reason we smile!...alot of us dont understand English...so when foreigner ask us something....we just go :)
