The chicano subculture, which originated in the United States, has somehow found its way into Thailand. Several Thais wear oversized khakis and white knee-high socks, hang out in gangs, and get matching tattoos to imitate Mexican-Americans. Members from five different Mexican gangs in and around Bangkok reveal why they have decided to embrace the chicano lifestyle. (Video by Chumporn Sangvilert & Nattawat Watanasuwan)
