They have likely seen the statistics by now, so know that stuff is just "security theater" pablum for the rabble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but its tourists from everywhere who have been unable to enter Thailand , thats why there are no tourists . Thailand relying on Chinese mass tourism is irrelevant , because no one can get in from anywhere . The lack of tourists has been caused by the virus and it has nothing to do with Thailand reliant on Chinese mass tourism . Its just a coincidence that they are from the same Country 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but they are civil servants who have to obey the rules, anyway they aren't affected they get a government salary. A change in regulations (emergency temporary rules ?) would have to come from the top, like prison visits as a tourist attraction, things like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good time to buy somethin' Not sure, is the price of a 'multi-reentry' Permit been reduced to a special price ? ???? Rebuilding a tourist trade is gonna be harder nowadays just because other nations are improved and the playing field is a lot more level than the last couple decades that Thailand didn't have all that much competition.

Yes you can get the amen a lot of Thais are collectively persuaded that they can do without foreign tourism like they have done for centuries until the 70'. Now we can just wait and see how it works for the next years. I am not very optimist because it's not only the tourism wich is impacted, most of the economy is going in dire straits (Domino effect) Plus Thailand is not anymore the agricultural country it was before the 70' with a young, poor and uneducated population, and in the actual situation it's could be more difficult for the actual power already contested to deal with this fact.

Popular Post RickBradford Posted September 14, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 14, 2020 6 hours ago, webfact said: A major conference attended by government reps and business leaders in Chiang Rai was the latest gathering to draw comparisons of the 2020 coronavirus pandemic with the 1997 Asian financial crisis. Why? The 1997 crisis was an internal crisis caused by heavy speculation in the baht. The 2020 crisis is an external crisis which has caught Thailand in its web. The 1997 event didn't stop foreign tourism for a year or more - it encouraged it, as the baht went down to 56 to the dollar. In short, there was a way out of the 1997 crisis, which is not available now, and will not be, if some experts are to be believed, until late 2021, by which time many parts of the Thai economy will be in ruins. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was however a very popular destination for domestic tourists. Their numbers have fallen dramatically over the last six months. That's very strange because I have a reliable source that predicts the Thai domestic tourism will make up for the gap left by lack of foreign tourists. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately it's just the begining, as in the moderns economy everything is linked and the domino effect will be devastating, In 6 months if you are interested to buy something you should find really good bargains. I feel really sorry for a lot of thai people who were just trying to make a living, not all of them were scammers, from my experience most of them were honest simple people doing their job, and pretty happy to earn even little money Now they don't smile anymore. They have nothing left. It's sad I agree, couldn't give a rats a rse about the high-flyers and the scammers, but very sorry for the average Thai relying on these people for their weekly pittance while trying to survive till next week. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
