Sign of the Times

Posted by: robertmpratt in Thailandpolitics on Print PDF

Duk and I went out to Samkong shrine last night to pay respect to the gods as part of the Phuket Vegetarian Festival. As always, I drew special attention from local Thais manning the various stations where we knelt to pray and offer incense. A farrang following rituals at Buddhist temples or Chinese shrines is very conspicuous.

At the final station, the helper asked me where I was from. When he heard that I was an American, he spoke in halting English. "American banks," he said, making a falling-down gesture with his right arm. "Over."

"Yes," I replied. "American banks all over."
