I think the governments idea of quality tourists is gambler's who will flock to Thailand when they build casino's, from China, and Malaysia.
What a basket case Thailand has become, dope shops everywhere, children smoking gunga,Russians hiding in Pattaya from the war,running crime, people jumping out of hotels, and now people beaten up in hua hin for bumping into a drunk Thai gangster who was probably on more than alcohol. And not to forget bodies washing up on the beaches regularly now. Oh I probably should have said bumping into a drunk bunch of Thai thugs, never used to happen in Hua Hin, but now crime is on the increase, NZ no exception, yesterday a jewelry shop was rammed and one of the owners bashed over the head with a hammer, he's in serious condition, shops being ram raided every day, since the pandemic the world has gone mad.
