I found this thread in the Thai Chat extremely interesting... someone is saying that the shorter the surname, the more of a higher status they are in the Thai society....or in actual fact, the shorter the surname the more native they are. Which means many chinese thais tend to have seriously long surnames as they are trying to assimilate to the Thai society.. is that more or less the same also in Indonesia??
