Of integrity or clarity it's complex. Yet simplictic and proud, the Kingdom of Thailand sits there, smiling and welcoming, like a little brother who knows something you don't. The strong religous values still underpinning city life and days in the fields, where etiquite is everything and saving face is neccessity. Yet, a light of tolerance shines through, ever widened by tourists and their social moral boundaries. The mix of ethnic orientation draws thick. Well blended through histories of reinvasion. Kmer, Mon, Lao and Phaun came here and left a mosaic in their paths. In geographical terms, its harmony and balance. Sensual islands, fertile plains and mountainous landscapes. A little spice to finish. Oriental allure. |
