It's about context and the individual. If you don't like the word then that is your own issue, if you don't mind it then that is also your decision. For me I understand that some people don't know how to describe us so it's fair, if it's shouted from the back of a passing pick up or used by someone I already know then it's derogatory.
Whoever says it's the word for foreigners or westeners then actually no it isn't, it is a word to describe foreigners but certainly not the one that should be used by a politician. unless he's trying to stir up the coals of course.

Poor choice of words. "I don't respect Farangs."
All of us? Just the monitors?

thanks for your replies. i am aware immigration is nothing to do with the wp but ultimately they are linked.
i'm not about to start doing 90 day visa runs after all of this time, we all know how much of a hassle it is but then again it would seem i don't have much choice.
working illegally is the easiest way but why should i be forced into it after having valid documents for so long?
thanks again for the replies, let's hope the situation changes, doubtful though, mike golf tours for me i suppose.
