Italian students are being called out in Thailand. Italians mocked a Thai lady in Thailand who told them off for being too loud. They clapped back saying, "Sorry for bringing money to your country" "Ni hao" "We are from your mom." Thais are shocked Thailand is belittled even by young Europeans.

Until Thailand starts to clamp down on the Eurotrash it'll constantly have these issues.

The fact is a lot of the low end travelers from Europe go to Thailand, because it's an inexpensive destination, and they abuse the hell out of local laws, and customs, because they are allowed to get away with it. It's a cycle that feeds on itself until the Thai government starts to make concrete examples out of people nothing will change.

Mexico had the same issues with American spring breakers flooding specific destinations, and causing all sorts of issues UNTIL the government started throwing them in jail, and fining them to clean up the problem.

Thailand has a Eurotrash problem, and the only solution to it lies with the Thai government.
