Popular Post 4MyEgo Posted January 30, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2020 (edited) Um, tourism in Phuket has been down for a while, the Coronavirus has compounded that now, so blaming it on the Coronavirus is shifting the blame, we all know the high baht had it's impact prior to the Coronavirus Have another meeting in a month and ask yourself why no tourist are coming as it gets worse i.e. when the Coronavirus spreads throughout Thailand if you don't shut the Chinese from entering Thailand immediately until we know more.

madmitch Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Mr Kongsak explained that, fortunately, tourists from other parts of the world are still coming as there have not been any cancellations of bookings registered yet. What's the fake news hotline number? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somtamnication Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Actually, constant complaints are that there are too many Chinese at the hotel restaurants, etc. This will most likely increase the non Orientals visitors to Phuket, who are the bulk of the complainants.
