    THere is a course the problem with British imperialist based racism. THis applies to US and EU as well but the British as in "brits" and "gammons" are the worst.

    Their perception of Thailand is based on an innate feeling of superiority over Thai people or ALL S.East Asians.

    Sweeping generalisations: - Expressions like "they". "thais" "third world" "they hate us" "Bad drivers" "Somchai" all come from a basic distain for Thai people their customs and their culture. The response is that many Thai people politely ignore Brit expats and avoid doing any form of business with them. THen the exoats suffer from confirmation bias and so the circle continues.

    Is that why elite in BKK call issan people Monkeys and uneducated kwilco. Why do you think most see Thais smiling at us are hiding behind that smile and its false.

    The perception in the USA and Europe is that the TAT favours Russians, Indians and Chinese, and that Westerners are no longer welcome in Thailand.

    Lets move forward and think what TAT Or Tourism chiefs will offer to bring British tourist back in incentives. I know this wont happen but if you sat in a meeting with a high up TAT spokesperson what would you say to him or her.

  3. How about answering the problems asked on the thread heading. Lets look at how will Phuket will respond to the decline of the Brits and how will the Governor of Phuket entice brits back? Only a few days ago the Taxi mafia were threatening a tourist in Patong even the thai g/f was threatened with violence. Why should we travel their and run the risk of a pack of Animals beating you because youwere being ripped off by a Tuk Tuk driver, was he photographed and seen as a deterrent no he was likely back on the beach rd ready for the next tourist to rip off.

  4. Thailand or Phuket the Pearl of the Andaman has always been corrupt after the tsunami they got greedy and started ripping off Tourists to make up for the lost revenue. From the Police to bars to hotels they were and still are biting the hand that feeds them with the attitude of " There will be a plane full coming along soon " Have they shown any interest in addressing the scams from jet skis to restaurants double pricing to bar scams no. Many will remember a Police Head was brought into Phuket with his claim of I will clean up the corruption and mafia Taxis in existence mmm i think within a month he was removed from the island completely, and its business as usual but some have seen through all this B/S and have voted with their feet now the TAT are wandering why we have left.

    My Lord its difficult to use this website on Windows. Always puts me at the end of the page, so I had to learn how to go to the home page with one key. Also, why can't we stop a new post if we decide not to make it, or completely erase one?

    Telegram has that one feature I love, I can completely erase any comment I've made. And the person who I sent it to while drunk or angry never sees it.

    If you prefer that then rex go back to it.
