Friday Night
Dear Friends,
"They were crying. They were crying." So reported a friend of mine as he witnessed Thai people gazing at the burnt-out ruins of a local shopping mall. "They were crying."
This is very unusual behavior. Thai people normally do not display any emotion in public. Laughing or crying, affection or anger are rarely seen. Despite the volume of traffic and the traffic jams around town, no one ever voices or displays any sign of frustration.
