@channelnewsasia: A group of Italian students has apologised after a video of their behaviour on a Bangkok BTS train sparked backlash online. Five students and their supervisor were fined, while the Italian Embassy in Bangkok also issued an apology condemning the group's actions. The Thai woman who confronted them has since accepted their apology, saying she recognised their remorse. Here's what happened and how the incident unfolded. #thailandnews #thailand #italynews #italy #bangkok

Kaushal Kumar :

the guy on the left said "ma ci pozzu cafuddari?" to his teacher referring to the woman filming. It means "can i beat her up?", and that makes the situation even worse ! also that teacher (Laura scagilione) saying "SORRY WE ARE BRINGING MONEY TO YOUR COUNTRY." what kind of teacher is she ?

MrQooB :

they are sorry for being caught, lol.

Rokec2🇸🇮🇱🇦 :

i hope teacher was fired

Victoria :

The apology was crap. And the statement put out by the Italian Embassy wasn’t convincing for their image.

Franky :

They said something even worse in Italian

Clift :

How much money are the Italians bringing in ? By your logic, does that mean anyone who go to Italy 🇮🇹 for tour, they can be assholes cos they bring money in ?

pancakeisacat0 :

jeffrey :

C@ndy :

AL Bajgurd :

Penzy|AIGC :

ไม่ควรเสียงดัง ไม่รู้ จริงๆแล้ว ตอนแรกมันไม่เป็นไรเลย แต่พอมีคนบอก คนเตือนก็ควรหยุดเสียงดังไม่ใช่มาด่าเขากลับ+ครูแว่นมาบอก"เอาเงินมาให้...บลาๆๆ" คนไทยสลิงแตก🌡️+มาชูนิ้ว🖕🏻ใส่ แล้วยังมาว่า เอาเงินมาให้ รายได้จากการท่องเที่ยว ตามจีดีพีประเทศ ไม่ถึง 7% นะ” If they are unfamiliar with Thai culture and don’t know that people are expected to keep their voices down on public transportation, that’s understandable. However, once someone politely asks them to be quieter, the respectful thing to do is listen and lower their voices. Instead, they gave us the middle finger and even said, “Sorry for bringing money to Thailand.” That kind of behavior is completely unacceptable. Before coming to Thailand, you should understand that the tourism industry contributes less than 7% of the country’s GDP. I think what made people so angry was not about the noise, we understand people might not know different cultures and customs, but what they did after they were asked to lower noise was disgusting! 📚Before visiting any country, they should learn their rules and regulations + They look down on Thailand simply because their country is bigger.

Max DaCosta :

For westerners first time coming to southeast asia: Those people in big cities using a decent mode of public transport (metro, good bus, grabcar, the ones you are ok with), they are not poor. Some may have a higher degree from the us or europe (mostly those countries to the west and north of austria, not really to the east or south).

That teacher needs to be punished the most for setting those types of standards and examples to the students
