BANGKOK: Many Lampang people became furious after seeing pictures of a foreign couple raising their feet over the head cushions of two seats aboard the Lampang-Chiang Mai train on Tuesday.

The photos were posted to a group of Lampang Facebook users at 10.23am on Tuesday.

The Facebook user said the pictures were taken aboard the train that left Lampang at 10am.

“I have seen other people’s photos denouncing such bad manners and I did not expect to see such a thing with my own eyes,” the Facebook user said.

Several Lampang Facebook users reacted angrily and called on train officials to reprimand tourists in such cases.

The Facebook user who posted the pictures said that the people who had been sitting in the two seats where the couple rested their feet had moved elsewhere.

He said train officials said nothing to the couple. – The Nation/Asia News Network

Yes yes we know not to do that , showing your foots sole, not polite, but it's okay to ram a finger up a Thai nose and dig for diamonds.

I hope that when Thais condemn Thais for bad manners (such as the axe attack-on-car episode...and I mean the "victim", the car owner), things might begin to change.
And why is "bad manners" condemned more than corruption?
Silly question, again.

Looks like a hippy leg. No shower, feet in air. Backpacker dregs. Rude in any country to put smelly feet onto seats like that.
