Oh yah.... a little anecdote from my trip to Chiang Mai....
Me, the FS, and a couple of other tourists were at a pasar
malam. We were standing in the middle of the road, talking pretty
animatedly.
Then suddenly, we realised that the whole street was suddenly
silent and that everyone was standing at sedia position. The only
sound was music coming out of a radio somewhere.
That's when it hit us - they were playing the national anthem
over the radio, and everyone was standing at attention out of
respect for it.
I gotta hand it to the Thais for their patriotism.
