If you are in a foreign country you have to follow the customs, simple like that.
Standing up for the anthem is not only a show of respect for the king, it also showing repect for all thai people.
Even the beggers will be upset when you stay seated.
Whatever your reasons are, you are a guest in this country well at least show some respect!
When you come to MY country you have to deal with OUR rules and not act like the "i'm an american" guy i do what i want.
Guy's like you som tam make me ashame to be farang.
