On the other side.
Tang Kai walked up to a man who had already started practicing Tai Chi. This man was also of Chinese descent, named Tang Liang. Even though Huaxia used to be the overlord of Thailand and the history and culture of Thailand was deeply influenced by Chinese culture, Thai people were not interested in learning the soft and gentle martial art of Tai Chi.
Of course, generally Thai people are not silly enough to learn Thai Boxing either.
Because the training method of Thai Boxing was too brutal, pushing the cells in the human body to their limit, relying on physical recovery, younger boxers are the most powerful. But after the top Thai boxers reach their forties, one deserves applause if he can still walk normally.
If it were not out of a true 'interest', or forced by life, not a lot of Thai people would learn such a thing.
