Contrasting Worlds

This picture clearly signifies the difference between traditional Thai and modern Thai culture. With a traditional style building in the front, it shows how Thai culture used to be. With tall buildings in the back, it projects how Thai culture is and where it is heading. Our society is thriving toward modernity with the support of traditional foundation. It is sort of a rare but rather magnificent "remedy".

A Hectic Lifestyle

This picture pretty much summed up the lifestyle of many Bangkokians and it created a new culture. People need to get up early in the morning and rush to work. They work from 9 to 5 and go back home. In the picture, too many people are heading in the same direction at the same time. As a result, they stuck in the traffic. While in their cars, some do their make-ups, some have their breakfast and so on. This is the lifestyle of urbanity and this is called urban-culture.

This is culture NO.1

This photo was taken in a restaurant at Siam Paragon. What stroke me, was this restaurant doesn't use conventional ordering system; waiters and waitresses, rather it uses a computer. When customers want to place orders, they simply touch on the screen in front of them and order. This, to me, shows that how today's culture involves and depends highly on technology. Half a century ago, the idea of computerising  is merely an imagination, now life without it is just unimaginable.
