Have you eaten yet?
In Laos and Thailand, hello means "have you eaten yet?" Care dressed up as conversation.
Have you eaten yet? 🇱🇦🇹🇭
Gin Khao Rue Yang / Gin Khao Laeo Bor. In Laos and Thailand it’s how you say hello. Not “how are you?” but “have you eaten yet?”
This one’s from Laos. But the phrase carries across the whole region and it never gets old.
It’s small talk that actually means something. Care dressed up as conversation. It says we see you, we’re thinking about you, your basic needs matter to us.
We could all learn from that.
