Thailand Donates 50,000 Bottles of Whitening Skin Cream To Haiti
Can Thais be unconcious racists?
The general Thai population needs more whitening skin cream, and maybe some blonde hair bleach creams. And some curly eyelashes. And maybe some more height than Haitians. Unilever is there for them, only the wealthy can afford those whitening skin creams. Haitians are (black) people, and everyone knows that! As what color can we identify Thais? I don’t expect Thais to talk sense or wisdom. An earthquake is a natural phenomena that hits @ will, anywhere, anytime! NO so-called advanced technology can stop that! That’s for sure banker! No doubt about that! Be it in California, Tokyo, Egypt, Turkey or Italy. Donations or no donations, Haitians will survive!
I’m pretty sure that was off a mockery news site, who’s articles include
“Ghost of Samak Gives Democrats Tongue-Lashing in Parliament”
http://www.notthenation.com/pages/news/getnews.php?id=861
who’s website clearly states that it is for entertainment purposes only.
