Your interviews with Thai folk help me understand them in a way I wouldn't otherwise. Gives me insight. You're so good at getting people to open up. Thank you. Well done.
This young Thai guy is very eloquent 👏
did anyone leave his @ or any social medias?
Seems like a very good kid.
Hi Paddy, this is another great video! I have subscribed to your channel for a while and truly enjoy it. I am a Singaporean, living in the US, and travel to Thailand for business yearly. I have been learning Thai in the past years. Your explanation on certain Thai words is really helpful. I just want to say " Thank you." ขอบคุณมากครับ😊🙏
I very much appreciate the support! 🇸🇬
Coolll what do you do, if I may ask haha. I’m also Singaporean. Have been learning bits of Thai and travelling to Thailand pretty often recently and hope to start a small business there in future😄
I really enjoy these interview videos to hear the answers from Thai people on the street. It is both entertaining and informative.
Variation of topics, especially about red light district! and I agreed with the young man's opinion. Always enjoy your vlogging 🙏
Paddy's videos always put a smile on my face.
I think sex industry are everywhere in this world not only Thailand,in Australia a lot of brothel.
Foreigners are went Thailand and have sex with sex workers then think that all Thai girls do sex service.
Not all Thai girls can do sex service everyone body is different.
Please take time to know them before you judge them are prostitute.
I like the fact that you are wearing a seek discomfort shirt as well.
It takes effort to learn the language and then the courage to go out on the streets and talk to natives about all these topics.
Well done to you. I love hearing the perspective of the thais, both those in Thailand but also those who live abroad themselves.
You have really found your place here on RUclips. Keep it up
GraengJai is so hard to explain. I always say “I feel bad” or “I don’t want to be a burden” as substitute words in English. but it’s about putting yourself in the another person’s shoes and be extra considerate.
Talk about traditions and customs, I remember that as a kid in Thailand, it’s common to lower your head when you walk pass elderly people especially in school to be polite. I kept doing that for years in the US when I first moved here.
Very good explanation of เกรงใจ (grengdjai). Very helpful to understand how (many, maybe even most) Thai people interact with other people.
Yes, thank you so much for this, Paddy! I would love to see more of this kind of thing. :)
I would usually translate “greng jai” as not wanting to bother, inconvenience, or offend someone. You’re right that it is rooted in being considerate towards others ☺️
Always love seeing a new video from you Paddy. This was a great one.
Thanks so much 🙏
as a thai person i'll tell you the old guy is so damn biased
Always good work Paddy!!
You ask question about punctuality - very funny because in my experience many Thai's run late and are not too worried at all🤣
Awesome Paddy , Both Videos , Im out west but pop into city a lot ,iknew where you were soon as i seen the video, Nice People you interviewed ,
Thanks so much for watching Bob!
I love it when Paddy has to think of the Thai word because the interviewee can't come up with it.
Enjoyed that Paddy, you're smashing it 😊
Like hearing the views of elder Thai people in the interviews.
Again, a great Vlog and topic.
Here in the States I've worked with, and been around a lot of south Asians. Fun, groovy, and respectful people. Would love to visit this area someday.
โสเภณีมีทุกประเทศ อย่างอเมริกานี่โสเภณีเดินกันตอนกลางวันตามถนนที่ลอสเองเจอลิส เดินกันแบบนุ่งน้อยห่มน้อย
I hate this, cos it doesn't just affect the Thai women in Thailand, it also affect us adopted Thais. I feel sorry for the women back in Thailand 😢😢
The thing with prostitution is that it used to be in some sort, a profession. Now, it's more of a lifestyle. Prostitution these days, are not contained in certain spaces. It's widespread in the online community, too. So, the basis is not whether it's situated in highly-touristic areas, though generally it is.
Over the years, it's become a way of living. Sadly, we see it being normalized in Thailand, too. People don't necessarily call it as it is but it's more nuanced as it blends well with the materialistic mentality and tolerant culture.
Very interesting to get a true insight of Thai peoples' opinions and perspectives.
Having seen the stats, the majority of the consumption/consumer base, for prostitution in Thailand, is Thai nationals and by a country mile. This is quite simply because places like Pattay and Patong, and collectively tiny when compared to the whole of the rest of the country. It is also interesting for there to be such a perspective particularly when in several states in Australia prostitution (in brothels) is either licensed or decriminalised, which is a considerable step beyond the Thai authorities' stance which is to not generally prosecute or go after it in terms of policing priorities.
its maybe 10-20% of the sex industri thats directed towards foreigners, the rest domestic
#15 couldn't be further from the truth. Bangkok and Phuket are great for some people, but Thailand has so much more to offer. Betong, Phu Chi Fah, Nan, Koh Lipe, Koh Chang, Khao Sam Roi Yot, Kaeng Krachan, Kanchanaburi, Loei, Pai, Mae Salong, Prachuap Khiri Khan, Hat Yai and many more - it's an incredible country ❤ 🇹🇭
Good watch as usual. Thanks Paddy.
Well of course the whole world thinks Thailand is a prostitute country because everytime a foreign male gets into a taxi the very first thing the Thai taxi drivers says is something like, " You want to go see sexy lady? I take you there".
I can't tell you the number of times that happened to me in a taxi. Like it or not but that is the impression they are giving to foreigners
They're definitely always late, cuz one of their traits is leaving everything to the last minute.
For street food, it depends. I only eat street food from vendors that care about food sanitation and keep the place clean.
Great video its always nice to get the local perspective maybe try and get a vew from a foreigner as well to compare 😎👍
The boy was honest
i thought you filmed the whole video in Thailand until the end 😂😂😂
I also get really angry with myself if I do something wrong. Maybe that's something subconsciously rootedin me
I think for those farangs who like to visit Thailand. It really depends on where they come from in their own country. Whether it be a city or from a rural part. I would think for more people who are from big cities like myself we will not be so impressed with Bangkok and would want to venture out to the rural parts of Thailand. But at the same time Bangkok does offer a lot of nightlife so for myself I would also be interested in that
However most Foreigners do like BKK for the Malls Temples Variety of Transportation Street food Night Markets Boat Cruises Rooftop Bars etc. I dont think they any foreigners expected a Singapore modern style from BKK. It would probably be more of a Turn off if they were that modernized! Though the Sidewalks could be drastically improved!
I agree. Me and my foreigner friends who come from suburb and rural areas always enjoy spending time in the big city like Bangkok and its suburbs more than traveling to other rural parts in Thailand. Anyway, I think the public transportation is another factor because it's really hard to find in many rural parts, like in my home town, I had to wait for 3-4 hours for a bus.
Admitted to hospital 3 times over many years.
The hospital staff informed me that it's not only foreigners, but also Thai people have trouble with food when they go to the provinces.
Love it Paddy! Do you have any recommendations for one on one Thai tutors through online ?
สวัสดีคะคุณPaddy🙏
I'm u r follower and I really like ur videos and it's really useful 4me cuz me 2
study thai but unfortunately I haven't friend to practice my speaking so sad 4 that:( BTW,I'm from Myanmar do u know my country?
Prostitution is through out Thailand it's not only in the major tourist areas, every town has brothels or little clubs where you can take the women out. These places aren't catering to tourist. There is a bigger sex industry catering to the locals than tourist the sex industry catering to tourist is more in your face. Where the local sex industry is a bit more subtle.
This era changed many things. Prostitution in Thailand also changed, the old school version still there but online service also boom in recent years but Pattaya and tourist hot spot still be a highly concentrate point.
There will only be stupid tourists with low thoughts. who thinks of coming to Thailand because he wants to buy sex services The majority of foreigners' visit to Thailand is to experience culture, food, and various attractions. I'll tell you shopping mall convenience store 24 Hours in Thailand are available in almost every area, including rural areas. The word you say is the sex industry. Where did you listen to so many people's lies?
Do not show sinful thoughts. If you really don't know anything Prostitution exists in some areas and is very rare. Thai people live a diverse life and earn a lot from doing other things. Only low class foreigners like this. Prostitution exists all over the world. Especially in Europe, America, the bigger the market.

Great content, keep it up man
I’ll never forgot the first words my wife said to me………. Short time or long time
Lol you are a good man to married her
Another great video!
The old guy is too biased, this is from a thai perspective.
Another great video
You're a bit hard on Phuket. It's a big island. Patong is over-priced and full of tourists, but there are cheap areas with lovely beaches and few tourists. The only thing that's consistently bad there is the taxi mafia.
Welcome foreigners to visit Thailand , I advise you to beware of price cheating.
I've seen some interview video about prostitute, the interviewee reply "The answer reflex your mind" then she walk away.
That's another great video which brings smile on the face. Also it's nice to learn something new which is "greng-jai". Thanks Paddy, have a good one !
1:40 In which country was it recorded? Didnt know that there would be any normal tram in Thailand
Did you guys know that Paddy's full name is Winston Paddington the Third?
did you know he has a market in chinatown ? lol
The guy with glasses truly understands thai culture.
มีความหลังที่หลากหลาย...😂😂😂
The women in white dress are very smart and beatiful
Its not true that Pattaya is the only redlight district.Redlight districts and prostitution are in every cities and villages in thailand.
Between wechat, Twitter and trawling the streets you can get a “bag off” anywhere in Thailand 😃😃
I live in Thailand And I can say that only some provinces in Thailand have red light districts and it is not possible for every Thai village to have a red light district. You shouldn't create fake news like this.
I don't know where you got these ideas. You said that Thailand has red light districts in every cities and village. You should only speak the truth, brother. Don't create fake news ,hatred and prejudice
@@fluke1464 Yes, and you will be arrested by the police for indecency.
@@abcdad2729 where did I say anything indecent ? You can pick them up anywhere unless your an obese washout …………😉
I’ve noticed a couple stereotypes about foreigners in these videos, such as “every foreigner goes to Pattaya”. Stereotypes against foreigners should be another video!
Great video
This video just proves, "saving face" is more important than "the ugly truth". One of my pet peeves of Thai culture. No disrespect. Anyone thats been married to a Thai knows this to be true.
Not exactly! Some are just stereotypes that keep getting emphasized by Foreigners that what to Echo the Stereotype Over and Over in Media when in reality is different
saving face is more unique to China, in comparison Thais are winners
dang i think i'll cancel my tickets then lol
The hygiene factor here is lagging behind the developed countries. Many of the mobile venders are hauking meat that has been exposed for several hours as the flys and other insects have injected their fill . Bacteria begins as the food is exposed to the air. Working in the food industry one knows that food should be covered. I got sick eating from 1 chicken vendor who had all her meat cooked for an unknown time period. Fruit that is cut and exposed is also prone to bacteria. Better to eat in the shopping in the centre commmercial where the environment is clean and fresh water is available.
I ate in a top resort got food poisoning, then in a top International Hospital got salmonella ! ate at local restaurants no problems !
later if going to Thailand Look for ready meals in shopping centers. Convenience If you buy street food should choose a clean shop You have the brain to choose the best.
Maybe the immunity of foreigners in some countries seems too weak...
The first one about street food. I think its somewhat true. It’s not about the food being dirty, but it’s more about how our stomach are not used to the food and ingredients overseas. Some people get food poisoning or stomachache when traveling because they might have a more sensitive stomach too.
That said, my brother who is Thai would always suggest that you go for hot food if it’s street food. And if you want to be really safe, then go to the ones that is extended from a restaurant because that means they have clean water at all times.
Also Mall food is pretty amazing in Thailand. I heard that they are usually street vendors that did so well that they were able to open a stall in the mall.
More Greng Jai references
If they look at restaurants, they will see food, if they look at toilet, they don't see food. Perception is Reality. You're welcome to interview me. It is selective perception.
As a Thai woman, I am not proud of the image Thailand is becoming known for.
for sexy women ? lol
@@flatearthsteve sexy women I’m ok with lol
But Thailand having the sex tourism reputation isn’t so great
@@Mikomido5 you're sexy lol :)
Yes I agree , not all Thai women do prostitution. I don’t know why some people love to criticize about Thailand and what about South African countries and South Americans and also the USA 😮, they are every corner , why don’t they talk about them , stop already!!!!
India , maxico I can name them all so please stop it
I mean, you can find prostitutes anywhere in the world, and maybe Thai girls imprinted the best impression on their memories. So, for me it kinda is an overstatement, but I would consider it a compliment.
The irony is, the official denies its existence and declares it illegal while the said official is the prime customer of this industry
Hi Paddy! When are you going back to Thailand? I just returned from a month-long vacation to Thailand. I can’t wait to go back this November!
are all covid things gone now in all places ?
@@flatearthsteve - Did not see any issues with Covid but 90% of Thais still wore their masks. 50% against covid and 50% against pollution.
I think it'd make more sense to ask foreigners who've stayed in Thailand for many years if Thai stereotypes were true.
Sure a Thai has no material to compare to mostly...
No bc they are mostly in red light districts
Thai are not honest. They lie to stay comfortable @@JVAN073
ท้องถิ่นไทยมีความหลากหลาย ทั้งความเป็นอยู่ การใช้ชีวิต และวัฒนธรรม 😂❤
The problem is they have nothing to compare it with.
สันติมากครับ🤙🏼🤙🏼
prostitute are in every country around the world, not only in Thailand dude.
Nah-I eye = shy for people that lives in Thai Issahn
Even Bangkok and Patong have big areas with freelance girls, not just Pattaya. Now girls understood that is easy open the legs to foreigners instead of finding a job and work hard as they lazy
Im from Thailand and people will make fun of you just because of the stereotypes. Especially in western countries
As a native it's hard to say if Thai food is always spicy because I've been eating these stuff all my life. Even for Thai people some don't seem to be able to tolerate a tiny bit of chili. Spiciness seems to be subjective. As time goes on food seems to be much less spicy to accommodate tourists. I have seen some foreigners drank a litre of water just after they've eaten chicken sauce(was meant to be sweet!). For Greng-Jai (เกรงใจ) I think it's somewhere between being mindful respectful and humble. I laughed so hard at "awe of heart" that isn't quite right but it's close. (Not just to elders but to your peers and juniors). Now a day there's a lot foreigners in the country not just white people, I hear foreign language half of the time while travelling throughout the country. First time here and what surprises me is that your Thai fluency is better than me. We got too many dialects and accents here my brain hurts talking to someone not from my region. (Same word dif region = dif meaning). Been to some dive shop owned by Farang and realized that there're a lot of Farangs' who can speak Thai more fluent than many natives lmao
การค้าประเวณี มันเป็นอาชีพนึงที่คนกลุ่มนึงเลือก ส่วนตัว คิดว่าเงินน่าจะดีกว่าหลายๆอาชีพ
แน่นอนครับ
Lies
Thailand has more of “that activity” than any other country on earth
Rural areas too
ทำไมคนไทยติดคำว่า ช่ายย บางทีมันเฝือ
Bro "Greng Jai" mean "Hesitating "isnt it ?
The closest meaning I can think of right now is "being considerate to other people' feelings"
Naw street food will definitely send you to the toilet.

Dude, it’s rude to call prostitute :prostitute .
I wonder how Black foreigners are treated in Thailand. Compared to other countries, I've heard not so great things
Positude everywhere include rich countries I think that kind the not nice question it make the women marry foriegn look bad.
Today alot of good women Mary foriegn cuz Asian women taking care their husband
👍🙂🙏🌴☀🌏
This topic is not quite reasonable. Thailand is famous for good food, good people and
cultures.
Sorry but it is true. To a great degree. That and a place to get a good boob job/trans surgery. Of course if you ask Thai people they would disagree out of saving face.
It’s not to save face 😂 for normal Thai people who don’t seek for prostitutes you really don’t feel much of their existent.
Sometimes true. Many times....Surprising as it is when you see the many many absolutely disgusting places to eat everywhere...i've never seen a case of food poisoning either in 15 years....Greng jai...many fakes too if you look deeper...for instance in bussiness....Very hard to see through if you are new here..
โสเภณี ในไทย มีทั้งคนไทยและประเทศเพื่อนบ้านรอบๆไทย เข้ามาขายในไทยเยอะ มันเลยดูเหมือนเยอะ
พูดเรื่องพวกผีขนหนุน ฉันขอค้านที่ว่าเขาไม่มีทางเลือก งานนะมีเยอะแยะ แต่เขาเลือกที่จะเป็น กร…เพราะว่าได้เงินดีกว่าที่จะมาเป็นกรรมกร!! บางทีฉันไม่อยากจะบอกว่าฉันเป็นคนไทย เพราะฉันอาย!
Yes it is. Stay as a foreign male and you’ll see.
Sure , you want to come to the USA every corner 😊
Well, first of all we have to commit that there is a set worker here. Okay? And secondly why we didn't have welfare for them. Atleast give them a health check or a protection solution or see educational.
Many Thai has value that sex is something we not talk too publicly but it's a human nature the government have a duty to educate about sex education to the kids not tell them to don't talk about it, you must teaching them about it.
I love you more
