QUESTIONS FROM AN AFRO-AMERICAN GENTLEMAN:

Subject: Can you help?

Hello,

I am a highly successful medical doctor from the U.S. who is divorced
and 46 years old. I have been in Thailand and it "feels right".

I consider myself Buddhist and I work internationally to help people (Latin America) . I am Afro-American (and actually mixed American Indian and Caucasian  as well) . Almost all of
your profiles request Caucasian or Asians. I found during my visit that many Thai  people
mistake Black Americans for Africans or even Arabs. So I found that Phillippinas are a lot
less "race conscious" (and fluent in English) but are also more spiritually /religiously
conservative (Roman Catholic).I am convinced That a young Thai wife (mid to late 20's is
the right choice for me). I certainly do not want to shell out a bunch of
money and have no one interested in me (you understand).

I make a distinction between prejudice and racism. Someone who is prejudiced can learn to overcome bad assumptions if they have a good heart (and maybe intelligence). A racist has a bad heart and intelligence does not help them.

I am one of the nicest people and best providers your Thai ladies are likely to meet.
Maybe you need to make out a custom package that addresses my concerns. There are not enough Tiger Woods in this world, don't you think?

Below is a profile of sorts and attached is a picture. (so you know)

Subject: We can Help for SURE.

Dear Mr. Hal,
    ******  Thank you very much for your long email telling us about yourself.  From your description, I am sure that you are a nice gentleman who is genuinely looking to have a nice caring lifetime partner in your life.  The lady who will be chosen by you to be your wife must be a lucky lady.

         You seem to have many good qualities that many ladies are looking for in a man. While most ladies on our website say that they are looking for either a Caucasian or an Asian man, it is because when they joined our agency and filled out the forms at our office, we have only 2 choices for them to choose - Caucasian or Asian.

             We have only 2 choices because most of our male members are either Caucasian or Asian.  However, we have had some African-American joining too.  Many ladies still come to meet with them, especially ladies who choose Asian because many nice smart Thai ladies will not look or judge people only the outside only. To make a lifetime relationship work out, inside and other qualities are more important.  That means many Thai ladies considers other qualities more important than just race and there must be many Thai ladies who like African/American men, otherwise there would not be a Tiger Wood in the world.

   From your picture, you are also very good looking and have a nice kind smile.  I think that there would be no problem for you to find a right Thai lady. We have more than 3000 ladies and many more ladies are joining each week. We can not put all of them up quickly on the web site, our programmers are working on the new database with a much larger capacity.    American, European, Australian , Scandinavian, Canadian, New Zealand, etc....men are  popular for our ladies. That is because most of male members come from these countries. That is another good thing about you, to be an American.

     We will be very happy to help you find the right sweet Thai wife of your dreams and we are sure that one of our Sweet Lovely Ladies can be the right one for you.    If you have any further inquiries or anything that I have not yet answered, please don't hesitate to contact me. We at sweet singles are happy to make your dream come true.


Regards,
Sweet Singles

Subject: Re: Thanks

       Sars doesn't affect Thailand very much unlike China, Hong Kong or Singapore,....  Thailand is one of the few countries that when they discover a problem or potential problem, they act and they take very aggressive measures.  

Our prime minister said that if  anyone dies from getting
Sars in Thailand, he would give
2,000,000 Thai baht to his family. 
He said that because he is sure that our country has prepared many effective systems to protect everyone from Sars.
We check all people who are coming in and out of Thailand.
Especially people who come from China, Hong Kong or Singapore.  They will be
quarantined for many weeks before they can be allowed to get into Thailand.
        Anyway, we should not be careless because any accident can happen
and we don't know who will be on the same plane.   All airlines should check
their passengers before allowing them to be on airplane.  Thai Airways checks
all passengers and will not allow anyone that they suspect to be on the
plane. 

For your reference you can check this web site:

Then do a search for SARS

There are 300 articles on the subject.  -
