    I don't think paying a extra 300 baht will put tourists off coming to Thailand The price of airfares might plus their own home currency Like the sterling pound not far off 1 to 1 with the American dollar ???? So 300 baht won't deter people who want to come to the land of smiles ????

    Considering the majority of Malaysian tourists are coming through the border near Hat Yai probably on a daily basis Let's have the numbers arriving at the International Airports for a truer figure of Arrivals coming to spend their money on hotels. Restaurants ect ????
