Home » Racism
A heated discussion has arisen on social media in Thailand following a video from Belgium in which a Thai lady feels racially treated by a group of men who mock her with the Chinese greeting 'Nǐ hǎo' (Hello in Mandarin) and her unsolicited touch.

Leo, a Surinamese man from Amsterdam, had been told that Thais can be very racist and he was a bit concerned about this because he was black. During his first visit to Thailand, he found Bangkok a disappointment. He thought it was a filthy city with a lot of traffic, air pollution and the Thai ladies didn't pay attention to him.
