💥I edited this message for clarity. You can agree or disagree with this statement but it's based on real incidents. This message is not about all people who go to international schools.
Dear some people who go to all sorts of privileged international schools in Thailand,
If you come across this message, I want you to read it and try to ruminate about what I am going to share with you. Learning English in Thailand is never easy. In fact, it has never been easy. You should put yourself in a conventional Thai school for a week if you want to experience the challenges a regular Thai student has to go through each day.
I am happy for you that you can speak English naturally, beautifully and eloquently. The reason why some of you find it easy is simply because of your privilege. And I don’t blame you for that. However, when it comes to speaking English, it pains me to see the mockery and insults that are still prevalent among the so-called upper-class community towards people less fortunate than them.
Let me remind you that English is just a tool to help connect you to a bigger world. It's a lingua franca, not a form of superiority. Stop using it as a weapon to belittle anyone. It is not cool. It is not civilised. It is vulgar. Please be kinder. Should you find that hard to achieve, don't say anything. If you can't use your privilege to help others, just sit on it and be quiet.
PS My statement doesn't include everyone who goes to an international school. The message is for those who use their privilege to belittle others. If you are not one of those people, this message is not about you.

Growing up as an Asian, I somehow believed that racism was just part of the package. Being called a “chink” and “gook” was nothing out of the ordinary. You just hoped that in time, things might get better. A memory I will never forget is walking home with my grandmother. I was around 8 or 9 years old at the time. We had to cut across the park in order to get home. I remember seeing a group of several teenagers sitting over the gate and already I felt fear knowing we had to pass them. Please just let us pass quietly, I thought. I can’t remember exactly what was said but rocks were thrown. My elderly grandmother hovered over me to protect me the best she could. She doesn’t speak much english but even then, she threw out all the swear words she knew. I was in shock. I remember peering under her armpit and I recognised one of the faces. She’s the sister of my big sister’s friend. She looked at me straight in the eye. She didn’t tell them to stop. A week or two later she would end up coming to my house to see my sister. My grandmother didn’t recognise her but I did. We put food on the table for her. Our parents did their best to protect us and give us the life they wanted for themselves, it’s time we protected them.
There is so much we can learn from the elderly. A the same time, they deserve even more care and attention because they are more vulnerable. Knowing they have become targets make me sick to the stomach. Those who prey on the defenceless are cowards. Words hurt yes, but the line is so badly crossed when lives of the elderly and women are taken. Call it for what it is. Hate crime.
Please don’t be silent. Speak out. Anti-asian violence is real and surging. Don’t just love our food, love us as a community. CALL OUT HATE. Our parents and grandparents didn’t have phones back then. We live in an age where we can capture live moments. We can spread awareness. We have a voice and we should be empowered to use it to protect those who are unable to.
Bad days don’t kill people. Racism and misogyny do.
Educate. Communicate. Stop hate.
Do not let regression happen when there is already so much work to be done. To my asian friends who are scared, heartbroken and angry, I stand with you. I love you. #stopasianhate #speakout

來看 #BBC 西班牙記者剖析用外語的優勢!
Why Using a Foreign Language Could Make You Better at Work
外語在職場上的絕對優勢
🧐 I recently spent four months working at the BBC in London, and English always sounded far smarter in my head than when it came out of my mouth. I often forgot words, made grammatical slips, and missed the usual precision of my native Spanish. It felt like trying to eat soup with a fork. As I write this, I have a dictionary open in front of me because I have learned to mistrust my ideas about what some words mean.
我最近在倫敦的BBC工作了四個月,口中吐出的英文總是沒有我腦海裡想的一樣聰明。我經常會忘記單詞、文法失誤或無法像是在講母語西班牙文那麼精準。那種感覺就像是用叉子喝湯。在寫這篇文章時,面前是一本攤開的字典,因為我開始懷疑自己對於一些詞彙的了解。
🌤 But there is a silver lining for those who are working in languages other than their native one. Research has recently shown that people who can speak a foreign language are likely to be more analytical. Other studies have suggested that people who are bilingual make decisions in different ways from those with one language.
但是職場上工作語言不是母語其實是有好處的。近期研究顯示,會多一門外語的人通常會多一點批判性思考。其他研究顯示,雙語人士相較於只會一種語言的人來說,做決策的方法會不太一樣。
📚 It suggests that as well as giving you an extra string to your bow in terms of where you can work and who you can work with, a foreign language also makes you a different kind of worker. But the real question is – does it make you a better worker?
除了多一些工作和工作夥伴的選擇之外,會一門外語也會讓你跟一般員工產生差異。但問題來了,擁有外語會讓你在工作上表現更好嗎?

為何用外語能帶給你職場優勢?
