Number 6 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 (edited) The Yuan will suffer the same fate as all of our currencies. This will drive away zero dollar tourists in droves or tour guide mafia will push them into subpar accommodation which will get bad reviews and feedback loop. Meanwhile, Chinese banking system is literally in turmoil as is housing both related to slumping economy and BAD DEBT. This cannot be good for condo market. Chinese economy is gonna get rocked by tarrifs as well as when they overreact to save face. I think Chinese tourism will become more discerning and seasonal. Same with India where a trip to Thailand must be crushingly expensive. The rupee is in sad shape. If I were sitting on bot board I'd be creating major investment packages for northeast, south and to throughly renovate Bangkok infrastructure and step up commitment and deadlines for mass transit. Print the money, helicopter it in and that will weaken the currency. The spending should be run thru international accounting firms. Pass a law also that buildings even if vacant must look clean and tidy. I'm so sick of the nation's capital looking like a slum. Jobs for cleaners, painters, maintenance and cops.

Mainly Vietnam..Indonesia,The Philipines and Cambodia. Chinese with a bit more money to spend go to Europe,Japan or to the US. Chinese tourists are not stupid. Apparently the Thai "government" is...! Hows that? Hans. As another poster stated about Indonesia but they might go to Bali in small numbers. Despite all the ethnic Chinese in Vietnam and trade that is a rocky relationship. They've been halted from going to Taiwan. Borocay is closed Phils is dangerous not going there. United States (?) Japan and Korea They might go to ... Siem Reap Singapore Bagan With all that going against the other countries and in Thailand's favor, numbers still down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
