Most Thailand culture recieved from India and China.Cambodia empire die by Ayutthaya empire(Thailand)
Some culture look like Cambodia and Laos.Some culture deverlop by Ayutthaya empire.In the past Thai&Myanmar 's very powerful Country not Cambodia or Laos.Thailand(Siam) have many culture more than one thing.coz Siam have a trade with many foreign.If not France colonialism Thailand have very big country more than this.Now Khmer empire not a center of culture after Ayutthaya (siam) taken.
I was in Thailand in 1974 as a boy of 8 years old. The traditions, rituals, people and atmosphere were all things I hold dearest to my heart even to this day. Thai people are very spiritual, peaceful, and above all REAL. I found their company and hospitality warm and loving like nothing we have in America. One day maybe I can return and stay much longer! Thank you for the video, it really brings back memories 8)
nah, i didnt mean to argu with you. i just wanna know more clearly about that, coz you three, Thailand, Laos and Cambodia have really similar culture, sometimes we can not tell which one is which one. i hope to ask theirs people if there are some more ideas, so i can check and match it with the books. ok i have no idea if you think like that. see you then, thanks for some of your ideas anyway.
One more thing for you, not realted but you may misunderstainding about people. People behavour have 4 parts. 1.They know, others know 2.They know, others don't 3.They don't know, others know 4.Both don't know. Sometimes people around cannot judge things for you, something you know and they don't. Keep it in mind if the others can't understand but you know what you are and they know what you show.
I think we have a lot of differnt idea that it is not going to be easy to communicate. If this cant explain then I won't going any furthur, I don't want any debate. Cambodia is a powerful country and have an enormous land long time and that may include Thailand. After that period, it is normal if the culture is still there i.e. people keep good things. That's why it's common sense. I would say it's merging. If there any doubt, go search for this debate. I can't see any benefit to argue.
Another thing to consider is the present, clothes. Isn't it Western now? I think Thai gives the credit that it uses Cambodian form of art. Cambodia uses to be a powerful country in the past, no wonder. The word you use is "stealing" that's wrong. It's the merging of the culture you see. Thailand may belong to the Cambodia in the past and now it's left that here as evidence that we are related, this is just like culture in Vietnam which some looks alike with Chinese.
yeah i have checked for Laos. however, i'm sorry but i don support you in this point, coz even people have different ideas, but we still need a main idea how people look at us, coz i know we cant see oursleves unless someone tell us this is right this is wrong. you said it's common to have similar culture, but if we look at some countires, they have different cultures depend on the areas, and it's just in one country. so it's not really make sense to me.
I think there is no point if you ask for the book, one book one people thiugh, isn't it? There is no specific proof to the history. Some of the Thai culture comes from the other country when they have connecting like Portuguese sweet. The culture is merge and apply after merging country and trading. The example would be the culture of Vietnam which looks alike with China. I don't familiar with Cambodian's culture but it's common for cultural alike. Why Cambodia? Have you see Laos culture?
so can you suggest me any book to prove your answer, coz as i wrote, i just refers to the books puls some of my ideas. sorry if there is sth wrong. i didnt say i'm rigth, but i also have some Asian friends. even they are quite similar, but there is also a little bit different that you can tell between each nation's culture. even me, i'm parents are also Asian. do have any idea of Thai's culture with Cambodian's? i really doubt in this point, coz they're all look the same.
I suggest you study more, each country has its own history and it's not so strange they praise themselves. That's why people should consider all of the material from every country, not just their own. If there is someone who is based everything in just his/her own country material then he/she is the close-mind person. More importantly, do not try to provoke the others, I don't think making two countries have a rift is what good people do.
