Are THAI people Really POOR!?

Today, I go to visit a "slum" like neighbourhood in Bangkok and talk about the people that are widely considered "poor"
I take a look at some of the houses that you can rent at an extremely cheap price and talk about the minimum wage here, the unemployment rate and discuss the overall standards of living here. A misconception is that all Thai people live in poverty here.

Sometimes they are poor and live in the slums, but their children work as doctors, dentists, nurses, engineers, IT professionals, or civil servants. But they refused to move out. Because they love where their live.Their society and friends who have been together for a long time. Some people have houses in other provinces. 😊

Thai people, although their income is not much, we also have very little expenses because everyone can receive medical services and receive free medical treatment. All our children receive free education and lunch including milk to drink every day even on school holidays and many other very cheap things like food. Therefore, even though Thai people do not have a small income compared to developed countries, Thailand is able to provide its citizens with a good quality of life while the income is not very high.

Lol, it's obviously not true. Even countries with larger economies than Thailand struggle with all the stuff you listed. People are usually egoistic; it doesn't depend on race or country. So, if medical service, education, etc., are free, it sucks so much. Want something better? Put bucks on the table. In this case, people live in the slums, and it's not a choice at all. Doesn't it suck when your family has a lot of health issues, but you can't pay for their medical treatment? Or when your child goes to the nearest public school with extremely old, uneducated teachers because no one who's educated, smart, young, and ambitious is willing to teach there for a minimum salary? So, are you still going to choose live in the slums with 10 penny in the pocket? Nope. Want to see the world? -pay. want a better education? -pay. want to try yourself as a photographer? -pay for equipment. want to try yourself as a programmer? -pay for the computer, if you don't have one (most people can't afford that at all). Need some freaking pills that will save your life? - pay, a lot. want to live in a better flat? -pay. if you want to start a new occupation, give your children a nice future, well, at least a good start, care about your health, live a damn good life, you have to pay for everything and a lot of money. because everyone others are egoistic, and will rather buy a sixth Ferrari for themselves. whoever that might be, politicians, entrepreneurs, celebrities. Poor society is not really happy. they just accepted the reality they live in. Poverty is not pretty, and Thailand is not that as you describe

If they have alot they have usually ripped some poor foreigner off. Life's lesson never get involved with a bar girl they will take everything you have. I have been going to Thailand for 18 years and some of the story's I have heard are terrible. These girls will suck every penny they can get and when you cannot provide anymore they move onto their next victim. But fair play to the decent Thai people who go out and do a proper days work and build their own houses etc.

In Thailand, the government does not provide financial assistance if you are not working. Financial assistance is primarily given to the elderly and people with disabilities, but the number of recipients is very small. Therefore, every Thai person must have a job in order to survive. In Thailand, we have a belief that 'if you don't choose a job, you won't starve.'Thai people are generally known for their generosity, especially towards foreigners, as they prefer not to be seen in a negative light. Thai people tend to be polite and not engage in impolite behavior with strangers because it could lead to conflicts.

Good video Adam. It is the eternal, subjective question. What is wealth and being rich? The majority of people rate it on how much money you have. I think happiness and the lifestyle you are happy with is more important. Sometimes people dont understand how good their life is until they experience something different or alternatively people judge people to be ‘poor’ because they dont have a lot of money. The thai lifestyle and culture is amazing. My thai partner has been living with me here in Australia for over 4 years and it has opened her eyes to what a great culture thailand has

Thai people would not meet my personal definition of the word poor by any means. Wealth has much more to do with the value in your life than it does with monetary status. Value in the sense of your personal relationships, your faith, your passions, and your cultural practices. Those things can add an incredible amount of happiness to your life, and your bank account means nothing in comparison. The Thai people have such a vibrant energy. They exude a loving humanity whether it be through feeding you, helping you find where you're going, or talking to you about the weather. Makes them more wealthy than a lot of other populations in a lot of ways in my opinion.

Happy people are rich people. Thai people are always happy. If you seen people's face who earned millions n billions of money always serious n look sick I was thinking about Bob Marley as soon as I saw your video title...n you included clip 👍👍👍👍

I don’t think Thai people are “always happy”, it’s just that the culture kind of looks down on any display of negative emotion. When you get down to the nitty gritty, you will find out the reality is often much darker..

FYI, we work the same job as you guys but payless 10 - 20 times a day. let's say you drive an Uber for 1 trip for 20 minutes get paid and get 5 dollars tipping and that tip alone is half of the minimum wage per day already. POOR? YES!

There were a lot of efforts to improve this place. More than thirty years ago this place looked a lot worse than now. My mom used to live near.
