Maybe there's some hope for logic in Thailand after all

Reading thru the article below, it's not difficult to think of examples you see/ have seen yourself over the years....

Reaching an uncritical mass
A group of teenage students are so concerned with the poor state of Thais' logic skills that they're offering online lessons in critical thinking

'She's just a farmer. She knows nothing." That was the example Terachet Rojrachsombat used on Facebook to illustrate his lesson on ad hominem, or abusive, arguments. The post drew an immediate reaction.

I sent that link to ThaiguyinGlasgow and he was impressed, and passed comment that there are far more people of that type in Thailand than you would imagine.

On a side note, he's been accepted as a Phd candidate at Strathclyde University, well done to him.
