Those videos obviously served the same purpose and were probably produced by the same company. The music and quality were identical, which indicates that they weren't trying to copy but it was actually a part of the same "help the people" kind of "campaign". I'm sure it wasn't originally Thai in the first place, but it was used in Thailand before they made one for Laos. You're right about that.

It doesn't even look like a Lao-made video. Some foreign company, most likely the same one, went to Laos and produced that advertisement.

When it come to copy and modifying thing, nobody did better than thai's. China and Vietnam not even close. i can name a few for you . Politics, Entertainment, and technology.

That type of advertise I don't think Thai advertising company will copy from modern Western or Japan, Maylaysia, Hongkong or Taiwan

As you watched and if you understanding Thai you will know that is base from the true story of a little poor little girl living inside of the neighbor's rice granary with her sickly Grandma in the remote province of Thailand and she started to wrote a letter seeking for help for her Grandma. No evelope, No address, No direction and No stamp and just leave it to the people who is going to the city

And one day, that little girl got a letter and the letter was from the Office of His Majesty's Principal Private Secretar to informed her about her petition to the crown and the King accepted her Grandma to be under the royal patronage of the King Rama 9

That was the real story!!!

But look at our Lao advertise is all about telecom company and as you seen it just made up story only as I don't think that poor little cottage will have a telephone line and can effort to pay the bill. If they can effort to have the Phone that mean she can take her grandma to the hospital. It was a little bit sad at the bigining of story but then...it become other story!!

It doesn't matter who copies whom. Copycat is copycat and it should not be tolerated.

Every body copies.  Thai copied Chinese songs, Chinese copied Japanese electronic gadgets, Japanese copied American cars, etc....  So the world goes round and round, where it ends no body knows.

Believe me, if one day I be like that kind of poor little girl, I will do all my best to help my mom or grandma.

At today, I have everything I want in my life. I have a big & perfect family and we love each other very much. Unlike you, have you ever take care of your family?

This song is Tai Dum song but Tai Dun lived in Laos and Thailand and they brought their song every where so it's not exactly Lao song.

Ok, then why don't they write they own song instead "COPY"?
and do you think the person who wrote this song is Tai dum?

 

What about that two guys sing the song, are they Tai dum?
I don't think so, it's Thai dudes sing Lao song....

NO, you just can't admit it.  Thai is very good when it's come to COPY.

It doesn't matter if you make better or worse, Copy is Copy...Like you brought it up and said that we should be ashamed,  You should be ashame too!!!!   Said this that to some one else before take a good look at the mirror before split it out.

All I know is you should be ashamed of Plagiarism. Because you don't paid for it.

But What Thai should be ashamed of? Ashamed of buying your licence songs to reproduce and promote your culture in Esan?

Do you understand what the word "Plagiarism" means. The problem is you didn't pay for it you idiot. That's why it's called plagiarism.

that is so right! look at lucy thai, she's really good at it she even took  2 jumbo dogs
in one hole. she really brought pride to her country. go lucy thai!!

 

This "Plagiarism" that you strongly speak of cannot be proven unless you have actual proof that Laotians really did take it without buying any copyrights. Instead of being assumptive about this whole plagiarism rant which you are dieing of anger from, how about showing proof instead of thinking that this is such a poor nation who steals steals steals =). Also being biased doesn't really help with your view on this topic so lighten up my friend Thais steal from Lao, Lao steals from Thai Thai steals styles, types of media and music from Korea, Japan and China. But they don't seem to really give a damn about it besides you you know why they do not care? Cause the world goes on. And no im not saying all of Thailand gives a damn about it its just you who I see that is. See? this is not called being biased or assumptive which you need to learn to stop doing cause it's only making your kind seem like a sensitive race who can't grow up like all the rest of asia and move on. You obviously have no Idea what the business world is like hence being why you had the need to make your own race look like a horrible nationalistic maniac and go on a Lao forum to obviously give in what you think of this. Copyrights buddy if we had stolen from your "Precious head over heals to die for" commerical (thats sarcasm by the way) then Unitel will be sued for it. Otherwise if you can't find any factual information on this then your just going to make yourself look so ridiculous my dear. Oh by the way since we are on this topic of copying how did it feel to have you movie Shutter be remade into an american movie and not even have it be filmed in Thailand itself but rather tokyo? Must have been a slap inthe face to know that the remake was not worthy enough to be filmed in a capital of what they still happen to think of as a Third world nation. Yes deny it all you want you are still a third world nation meaning you are classified with us... Must be an insult right? But what can you do? Nothing because the world moves on. And so must you

I'm Thai
I think websmaster should close this topic.
It's another Thai -Laos fight.

Laos and Thailand should be good neighbour for each other. Only our people can understand our language.
