Teasing and Laughing
In Chapter Four we discussed some of the ways Westerners can cause Thai people to lose face. We also learned that a Westerner can lose face in some situations. Foreigners are not afraid of positive criticism, but can lose face through negative criticism. Negative criticism, if it done to damage someone's reputation, has many different names, such as ridicule, mockery, and being made fun of. Making fun of a foreigners will always make them angry or sad.
