Couple of weeks ago I promissed someone on this web, that I will post my positive opinions of Thailand & its people. I posted one few days ago-"Thai Honesty'-now I post another, Thai politeness or self restraint, or self control.While in Bkk. I saw many a traffic jam, even motorcycles "bumping" into cars, yet I have not seen one angry tantrum outburst, not one curse word from "wronged" drivers-nor pedestrians for that matter-rarely if ever did I hear a car horn go off in angry protest. That really impressed me. Here in U.S. cities in bad traffic jams,...Wow!...the cars honking, the cussing, the name calling ...it would put a camel driver to shame So are Thais (and most other Asians) more polite?, more self restrained, more patient?...
