Like often my colleagues who visit Thailand try to rub it again and again ' that is based from Indian culture' and I do my best to tell them that once they adopted it as their own it is theirs and if they practise something more than us, it is more of theirs than ours.... and there is no purpose to remind one of the source - which I call 'tacit politeness'. So, like that, if someone says he is Thai... so it is. At a basic human level. Later we can analyse for other reasons, but cannot take that ownership away or ... should not.
