BANGKOK — Thais are among 59 nationalities who soon won’t need visas to travel to China’s Hainan Island.

 

Starting next month, the visa requirement will be waived for Thai nationals visiting the southern semi-tropical island known for its beach resorts and and forests for up to 30 days.

Ever been there gaff? I guess not, Hainan is infact also referred to as the Hawaii of Asia and quite rightly so. Keep your eye on this island in the South China Sea as over the next ten years its intended to be the Hong Kong of the mainland

China is becoming far more fun and affordable.  More people speak English or actually make an effort.  There are TONS more business opportunities in China than in Thailand.  You can buy beer anytime you want, and it is the good imported stuff for same price as the crap you get in Thailand.  Spirits are wine are cheaper too.  Hainan might also host world class theme parks, where Thailand may not.

Hainan is indeed much like Hawaii, including being a major military base hosting nuclear submarines in well-protected caves. No tourists allowed there.

The story is misleading. Thais and the other nationalities mentioned can't just show up in Hainan without a visa for a thirty-day stay. They have to make arrangements for their stay through a Hainan-based travel agency beforehand.
