Well, lemme see. Big C, Foodland, Tops, Tesco Lotus, department stores, gift shops, countless shops in the malls, food courts, Starbucks, countless restaurants, real estate owners and sellers, selected go-go bars, hotels (very much including higher end), high end restos with great views, taxis, the travel industry in general. It's a long list; Chinese are everywhere these days, plain to see unless you're just blind. Oh--you thought they're Thais! Question is, who not else? Oh--cheap beer bars and fleabag guest houses favored by fat old mongers. BTW, expats benefit who enjoy some nice visuals on occasion as a lot of those young Chinese women are not bad looking at all. Younger handsome farang tourists might try their luck; friend of mine did and he's happy. ???? Will that do?

That was both hilarious and so, so accurate.

 

Salut brother. ????????

    There are numerous negative issues affecting the tourism industry in Thailand, very few of which are ever addressed. Rather than focus on things which will bring tourists back in numbers across the bo

  • My guess is the Thai government are kowtowing to Beijing and their ongoing propaganda against Taiwan.

  • Just so I'm clear, this weeks knee-jerk plan has reverted back to quantity of tourist rather than quality of tourist ?

Great. Do they still let their kids wee on the streets?

Absolute normal and respected behaviour in mainland China. (And some Thais do it too!) - If Chinese nationals are the preferred tourists in Thailand, perhaps Thailand needs to adjust, expecting more of this to happen. Twice the number of tourists in a few years, twice the peeing on the street...

From all the taxes that they pay to the Thai government plus the fact that they are probably Thai/Chinese anyway.

 

Pray ok?

would you provide supporting data showing the Chinese paying taxes in Thailand...

But you have no evidence whatsoever that it's "respected." Made that one up, too. 

 

Fortunately Brits and Europeans are quite used to it--and public defecation--in their own countries, and it's normal and respected enough there so that nothing ever really gets done about it. For example,

 

People in Sunderland warned to stop defecating and urinating in the city centre

Paris is a post-apocalyptic hellhole of public urination and litter.

 

But they do clutch their pearls and screech if they encounter it, though much less, in Thailand of course. Just another excuse to bash.

Pretty soon it will almost be as bad as San Francisco.

That's the price one pays for multiculturalism I'm afraid.

No, look it up yourself if you are so interested and don't be so idle.

 

If you had a Chinese work ethic you would have done that in the time it took you to make your request.
