1 hour ago1 hr A YouTube algorithm has been leading me towards a series of Thai adverts- many of them a few years old- which are very different to anything we have here , back home.They tend to be between five and ten minutes long and are mini-stories illustrating Thai values, specifically of a Buddhist nature, concerning the duties of children towards parents, the rewards which followgood acts ("making merit") and so on. They seem to have been produced by insurance companies and sometimes government agencies.I asked my partner about them last week and yes, he knew the ones I remembered. Anyone with a soft heart and a love of Thais will enjoy them as long as they have a handkerchief available.
