Despite living in Thailand, why do some foreigners hate Thailand?

為什么有些外國人一邊生活在泰國，一邊討厭泰國?

評(píng)論翻譯

Jane Jones
I haven’t met anyone who hates Thailand. Most ex-pats are free to leave if they feel so negatively about somewhere. Even if sent here to work by a large company, you can escape within a year or two.
I am British, live in Thailand but have also lived around the world (4 continents and many more countries). I think the unique thing about Thailand is the feeling that you’re unwanted. I have some good Thai friends and am not of course talking about everyone, but Thailand is xenophobic in the extreme and therefore, people feel free to criticise Thais.

我還沒遇到過討厭泰國的人。大多數(shù)外國人如果對某個(gè)地方感到如此消極，他們可以自由離開。即使是被大公司派到這里工作的，一兩年內(nèi)也能逃離這里。
我是英國人，住在泰國，但也曾在世界各地(4大洲和更多的國家)生活過 。我認(rèn)為泰國的獨(dú)特之處在于你會(huì)覺得自己不受歡迎。我有一些泰國籍的好朋友，當(dāng)然不是說所有人都這樣，但泰國是極端排外的，也因此，人們可以自由地批評(píng)泰國人。

The majority of Thais I’ve met are two-faced, dishonest, greedy and only want our money. We live in Thailand despite people feeling like that. Often because we have a higher standard of living; we earn similar or higher salaries than we would at home and the cost of living is much lower.

我遇到的大多數(shù)泰國人都是兩面派，不誠實(shí)，貪婪，只想要我們的錢。盡管人們有這樣的感覺，但是我們依然選擇生活在泰國。這通常是因?yàn)樵谶@里我們能享受到更高的生活水平;在這里我們掙的工資和在國內(nèi)差不多甚至更高，生活成本也低得多。

We don’t expect Thailand to change. We know that Thainess, loss of face and the notion of hierarchy with ‘farang’ being slightly below soi dog will never change but we enjoy the benefits whilst being free to criticise the negatives. Remember, Western Society has flourished because people feel able to criticise. Leese majeste, defamation laws and successions of coups are holding the country back and until Thais are able to understand criticism without being so childish and thin skinned, the world around them will continue to evolve and leave them behind. You’ll be the hub of nothing but empty promises from those in charge.

我們不指望泰國會(huì)做出改變。我們知道泰國人、丟臉和“farang”略低于“soi dog”的等級(jí)觀念永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)改變，但我們享受好處的同時(shí)，可以自由地批評(píng)這里負(fù)面的東西。記住，西方社會(huì)之所以繁榮，是因?yàn)槿藗兡軌蜃杂傻倪M(jìn)行批評(píng)。冒犯君主、誹謗法律和接連不斷的政變正在阻礙這個(gè)國家的發(fā)展，直到泰國人能夠理解批評(píng)的意義，而不是變得如此幼稚和臉皮薄。他們周圍的世界將繼續(xù)發(fā)展，把他們拋在后面。而你們只會(huì)得到那些掌權(quán)者的空洞承諾。

It is amazing, for short periods. Once you live here longer you will quickly realize the flaws and see through the fake paradise.

對于來泰國不久的人來說，這里是令人驚嘆的。一旦你在這里住得久一點(diǎn)，你就會(huì)很快意識(shí)到這些缺陷，并看穿這個(gè)虛假的天堂。

Noise - There is always noise, from construction to traffic, to broadcast messages going out in public from shit speakers.
The worst noise of all - Motorbikes, everyone is trying to make sure their motorbike is the loudest. If you live in Bangkok it is unhand-able, but everywhere else is bad as well.
People have serious phone addictions. From 5–78 year olds, average screen time is 8 hours per day, while they walk, drive, skytrain and in public bathrooms they are watching tiktok, youtube or facebook.
Ignorant and stupid - They are unable to use their own head to think and come to logic conclusions.

噪音——到處都有噪音，從建筑到交通，到垃圾揚(yáng)聲器在公共場所廣播信息。
這其中最糟糕的噪音是摩托車，每個(gè)人都試圖確保他們的摩托車是最大聲的。如果你住在曼谷，那簡直無法忍受，但其他地方也很糟糕。
人們有嚴(yán)重的手機(jī)癮。5-78歲的人平均每天看屏幕的時(shí)間為8小時(shí)，他們走路、開車、坐輕軌，在公共廁所里看抖音、youtube或facebook。
無知和愚蠢——他們無法用自己的頭腦思考和得出邏輯結(jié)論。

Military state - They have been indoctrinated with the great king and great nation. Pictures of the king serves as keeping them under watch. And it has effects of a nation as a military state with all that entails.
People are extremely lazy. ( A large percentage of the people are working in the sun, the heat and the streets ) The other 80%, will never walk further than 5 meters to closest 7/11. They will order food from 7/11 2 min down the road. They will never, cook, clean or eat out if they do not have a scooter. Order grab, foodpanda eat and watch youtube.
People are two-faced. They do not stand up to themselves and avoid conflict, which makes it impossible to have a genuine discussion with anyone.

軍管國家——他們被灌輸了偉大的國王和偉大的國家的概念。國王的照片起到了監(jiān)督他們的作用。這樣將一個(gè)正常國家塑造成了一個(gè)軍事國家，軍隊(duì)承擔(dān)了所有的責(zé)任。
人們非常懶惰。(很大一部分人是在陽光下、高溫下或在街上工作)。另外，80%的人永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)走路超過5米到到離的最近的7/11便利店。他們會(huì)從只需要2分鐘路程的7/11便利店點(diǎn)餐。如果沒有小型摩托車，他們將永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)做飯、打掃或外出就餐。點(diǎn)餐，付款，看youtube。
這里的人都是虛偽的。他們不能勇敢地面對自己，一味的避免沖突，這使得你不可能與任何人進(jìn)行真正的討論。

People are so afraid of loosing face and looking bad in front of others, that it makes interactions non-genuine.
People will never take any initiative to do or complete anything. The mindset is “someone else will do it”
They simply cant drive. It is not that they drive fast, or irresponsible. It is just that they completely lack skills. I have driven along all of They are racist. They do not show it. But double pricing, dark skin complexity etc is just the tip of the iceberg.
Non educated and not intelligent. Even a simple logical math problem concerning an electricity bill can not be solved for 3 months. They completely lack logical thinking.
Everything is always delayed and not working as it should.
Cant tell the time.

人們非常害怕在別人面前丟臉，這使得互動(dòng)變得不真誠。
人們永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)主動(dòng)去做或完成任何事情。他們的心態(tài)是“別人會(huì)做的”。
他們根本不會(huì)開車。這并不是說他們開得快，或者不負(fù)責(zé)任。只是他們完全缺乏開車的技能。
他們是種族主義的。他們只是沒有表現(xiàn)出來。但雙標(biāo)定價(jià)、深色皮膚區(qū)別對待等只是冰山一角。
沒有受過教育，不聰明。即使是一個(gè)簡單的電費(fèi)邏輯數(shù)學(xué)題，他們花3個(gè)月也解不出來。他們完全缺乏邏輯思維。
所有的事情總是被延遲，不能正常工作。
不關(guān)心時(shí)間。

Superficial. I have lived in Monaco, Cannes and St Tropez. But Thai people are worst. White skin creams, plastic surgery, tiktok, Instagram, Gucci, BMW, Apple. Everything is a about Status. Bangkok traffic so bad because it is considered low level of status to take the skytrain. Having a car is status. And the car should be as huge as possible. The country is built on small streets with tank cars to drive on them. Because they are superficial and care about face and status.

膚淺的說。我曾在摩納哥、戛納和圣特羅佩生活過。但是泰國人是表現(xiàn)最差的。美白護(hù)膚霜，整容手術(shù)，抖音，Instagram, Gucci, BMW，蘋果。一切都關(guān)乎地位。曼谷的交通如此糟糕，是因?yàn)槿藗冋J(rèn)為是乘坐輕軌的都是地位低下的人。有車就是有地位。車應(yīng)該盡可能的大。這個(gè)國家到處都是狹小的街道，街道上有坦克車行駛在上面。因?yàn)樗麄兡w淺，在意面子和地位。

Overrated food. Seriously, instant noodles, cold rice, cheap processed pork and chicken. Shrimp and Squid that are 100% not even real. Completely tasteless, so they add a ton off oil, sugar and chili. It is a mystery that thai food is so popular. For what reasons ? Compare it to food in Middle east or south Europe.
It is very hot. Always.

被高估的食物。說真的，方便面、冷米飯、廉價(jià)的加工豬肉和雞肉。蝦和魷魚100%都不是真的。完全沒有味道，所以他們加了很多油，糖和辣椒。泰國菜如此受歡迎真是個(gè)謎。原因是什么?與中東或南歐的食物沒法比。
天氣很熱。一直很熱。
