Thai custom

The Kingdom of Thailand, known as Thailand, is a constitutional monarchy in South-East Asia.

The old name Siam, on 11 May 1949, Thais changed the word “Siam” to “Thai” in the name of their own nation, mainly with the meaning of “freedom”.

In the centre of the south-central peninsula, the west is bordered by the north and Myanmar, the Andaman Sea, the north-east by Laos, the south-east by Cambodia, and the narrow south by the peninsula with Malaysia.

Thailand, known as the “Buddhist State” and the “White Elephant State”, is also one of the world's most famous tourist destinations.

The capital, Bangkok, also known as “Venice in the East”, in Thai, has the meaning of “the City of Angels”, but this is only abbreviation.

If it is translated into Latin, there are 142 letters, the world's oldest capital.

The total population of Thailand is estimated at 6.4 million (March 2014), with more than 30 ethnic groups, the Thais being the main ethnic group, accounting for 40 per cent of the total, and the rest being the gwa, Malays, Khmers, as well as the Mau, Gui, Fong, Karen, Shan, Seymour and Sagae hill peoples.

Thai is the national language.

Buddhism is the main faith in Thailand, and 90 per cent of Thais are Buddhist.

For centuries, there has been a close relationship with Buddhism, both in terms of customs and customs, literature, art and architecture.

The Thai calendar is also a Buddhist calendar, also known as the Thai calendar, which is the basis for calculation based on the year of the death of Yenkaronyi.

The year 2012 was known as 2555.

543 years before the birth of Jesus, 2555-543 = 2012.

For ease of use, the same is true of the law of menstruation.

Conversion method: Thailand's national chronology year - 543 = B.D.

And in Thailand, every Buddhist boy, at a certain age, must grow into a monk, with no exception for the royal family and nobility.

In the streets of Thailand, there are monks dressed in yellow, as well as pagodas.

Therefore, Thailand has the name of Yellow Buddha.

Buddhism has shaped the moral standards for Thais and has developed a spiritual culture of tolerance, tranquillity and peace.

Thais are used to being uncles, uncles, aunts, aunts, grandfathers, grandmothers.

They are also known as brothers or sisters.

They have been educated at home from an early age, where they respect their parents and elders.

Schools train students to respect their teachers and be polite to their senior students, and teach students to respect their teachers as much as to their parents.

On the occasion of the annual Songgan Festival, it is customary to give holy water to their respected elders and superiors.

On the day of the tribute to the teacher, the student salutes his teacher.

The esteemed teacher is associated with the social promotion of an education of appreciation.

Thais do not have a culture of son preference and many families have girls and are happier than boys.

Thai women have been accorded equal status with men in all fields, such as:the right to education, to vote and to be elected.

in general, thais do not shake hands when they meet, but do the same and say “sawadika” to each other.

the higher the hand, the greater the respect for the other.

when you salute, put your hands together, put your hands on your chest, your hands on your nose, and your head down.

when the elders met, their hands were raised to the eye, their nose to the nose, and their elders to the chest.

in the case of persons of lower status or younger age, they shall first perform the rites.

when a party presents its compliments, the benefactor shall also pay his respects.

the thais also offered each other a gift when they left.

now thai government officials and intellectuals often shake hands to say hello.

but don't use your toes on anything, whether standing or sitting, to make your feet look at or see the soles of your shoes.

convergence is the guiding principle for every dish, whether it be spicy or light, and the food of thailand is internationally known.

thai cooking is essentially an organic combination of centuries-old eastern and western influences, creating a unique thai diet.

the characteristics of thai cuisine are based on the situation of cooks, eaters, scenes and cooking sites to satisfy the appetite of all.

cooking in thailand initially reflected the characteristics of a water lifestyle.

aquatic animals, plants and herbs are the main formulations.

avoid using big pieces of meat.

the subsequent effects have resulted in a considerable amount of meat being used in thai diet.

thais avoid using large animal meat because of their buddhist background.

large pieces of meat are shredded and mixed with herbs and spices.

thailand ' s traditional cooking methods are boiled, baked or barbecued.

under the influence of china, methods of frying, frying and bombing were introduced.

since the seventeenth century, cooking methods have been influenced by portugal, the netherlands, france and japan.

in the late 17th century, portuguese missionaries used to smell chili in south america and then introduced chili in thai food.

so they desire spicy and tender things, curry and shade soup, and do not like salty and sweet things, nor do they eat red-hot food.

thai folk are also accustomed to sitting on their knees around low round tables and eating with their right hand.

the straw is used for water and drinks, both for girls and for boys in thailand.

they think it's more polite to drink with a straw.

it is rare for thais to drink water on their heads or directly to their mouths.

thailand is also a foreign country, and thais themselves are more hospitalityful.

it should be noted, however, that in thailand, remember not to step on the threshold, which, according to thai custom, is the place where the gods live; it would be extremely rude to have a person of honour or elders sitting or kneeling in his or her seat and the other person ' s head must not exceed the head of the person of honour or elders.

thais are also the most repulsive of others touching their own (children also count) head, because they believe that the head is the source of wisdom, valuable and sacred.

thais usually wear shirtslong pants, skirts, in formal situations, are used to wearing dark suits or skirts.

they also love the colours of beauty, but the brown, the red pen signature and the dog pattern; in thailand, the name of the deceased is written in red pen.

so red is bad luck.

they also use different colours to represent different dates, monday: yellow; tuesday: pink; wednesday: green; thursday: orange; friday: light blue; saturday: purple; sunday: red.

thais also love elephants and peacocks very much, while cranes, turtles and turtles are unwelcome in thailand, and thais are scorning both animals and objects with their image.

cranes are considered “porn” birds; turtles are seen as a symbol of male “sex”.

they like numbers “9”, because the word “9” in thai means progress.

moreover, the locals expressed peace by extending their little fingers up, their thumbs down, and their crooked index finger by death.

they also considered buddha and king to be supreme and therefore could not speak to them about buddha and king.
