have you caught the yellowpages ad with the two thai restaurants? i thought it was hella funny but the cultural inaccuracy of it did bother me. for example, the background music was the popular song "chopsticks" and the thai lady screaming, was she screaming in thai?

I studied in Adelaide bfore. Is that count?
Not so many Thai ova there but people re really close 2 each others ,perhaps it jst d small town

yeah i wanted to discuss the ad itself, i thought it was an insult to the thai culture

Sorry dude I cant help you that much ,I am in Thailand now. I have to ask my friend who are still there about this ads. I get what you said d way Ozzy present Asian in media made us look bit dumb. Have you watch or heard about d Australian movie that show about d Japanese man and the Australian girl stuck in the outback together? I cant remember it that much. I think that is why in Ozzyland they got Fat Pizza shows that is mocking Ozzy back I think

Can you tell me about that ads more?

Could you upload it?

^i don't have it, i saw it on tv

basically two thai restaurants accross the road are fighting each other to gain more customers. they make up new restaurant names like "thai tanic" "bow thai" "thai shop" etc etc and they have themes for each of the name. i thought it was really funny

I heard of a thai restaurant called "thai tanic" before. Oh, wait .Both of them do exist in Sydney.

yes its soughta funny but an insult to thai culture ? they are shouting in Chinese, as well as thai. wouldnt you think that Oz Yellow pages with their big budget would of employed real thai actors/actresses , well i suppose its suppose to be funny and simple.

the actresses spoke (shouted) perfect thai so im positve they were thai. dont remember hearing them speaking chinese though.

Hi , Sawasdee! Where did you see the add ? did you find it insulting or rude ? i guess not ? i dont think it was made to offend anyone.

what was she saying

i wasnt at all offended by this ads. kinda like it actually with all those funny names. i saw this ads in melbourne.

@ IniTiaL V.

i cant remember what she was saying. will tell u next time i see the ads.

On the Disney channel, they did a segment on Chinese New Year, but the music they played was Thai Mahori. Disney should know better, especially with Thailand and Chinese Pavilion at Epcot center.

Yah ! Absolutely with all their money and all, especially being such a multinational company and producing and releasing their movies and material in Thailand too ! after all there in Japan and now Hong Kong Disneyland, hey been there yet ? I have its fun !
