Why were (or are?) the Thai so uninterested in their surroundings or in others? I was just in Thailand (2007) and I saw a homeless man suffering in his dirt almost at the entrance of Lumphini Park in Bangkok.
I got there after investigating that he had been lying there for over two weeks with hundreds of passers-by a day!
The policemen who have their police box very close by gave him drinks.
I could not watch this and went to the nearby King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital where, of course, no action was taken. They’re only there for patients with money! Then I went to the Red Cross on the other side of the road where they gave me the address of an office in Bangkok.
After I visited that office, fortunately they quickly came into action! Within two hours three people came with me and less than an hour later there was an ambulance!!!
Someone says to me: “I see too much and I think too much”!
