In South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut, there’s a scene where some of the characters sing a song called “Blame Canada” in response to the trouble that their children have been getting into after watching the movie Terrance and Phillip: Asses of Fire. Imagine, for a minute, that South Park is set in Thailand. What do you think this song would be called?
“Blame Burma”, of course. It isn’t enough that Thailand blames Burmese migrants for cramming themselves in containers and dying en route to Phuket (anyone heard how those children have been doing?). It isn’t even enough to blame Burmese migrants for causing all known crime in Thailand. The Burmese are, in fact, the route of all problems known to mankind.
In a related development, the Chiang Rai Culture Office reports the spread of pornographic games and books. “These materials are smuggled from Burma,” says office director Mongkol Sittilor.
Porn in Thailand? Ah yes, blame Burma. But wait, there’s more:
The situation is dire because many children and monks had been found attempting to smuggle in these items. (Daily Xpress)
Children and monks in Chiang Rai are smuggling this stuff from Burma. What great timing for such a revelation to surface.

My name is Matt and I’m the author of this blog. I first traveled to Thailand in 2005 and started working in Bangkok. My time in Thailand has been spent mostly working, often writing and occasionally traveling around Thailand's islands or other points of interest. I now live in Phuket, Southern Thailand. I plan to stay in Thailand for as long as the buzz is still there. I'm a writer and editor, working for a Phuket newspaper and freelancing for various publications. Thailand is my home, for now, and no, I'm not just another expat loser ...
Like I said, the Thais hate the Burmese…
But not enough to not have them do their shit work.
