Popular Post blazes Posted February 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 27, 2022 How about building a replica of Mecca somewhere in LoS? That could attract a few weary travellers post-Haj. Or, better still, maybe negotiate with the Saudis to allow the Thai "Mecca" to be an acceptable alternative to the exhausting real thing. Marching around a rock in temps of 50C takes it out of one. 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daily laughter medicine. I can always rely on you to exercise my obliques. Unless they remove the idiotic restrictions even the Saudis won't be coming in that number. It would be amazing if the Thai media would actually challenge and call out those, who make these ridiculous claims, and question where they come up with the figures. I have a feeling it is done like this. 10 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ezzra Posted February 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 27, 2022 Planning is good, but planning should be supported with good conditions and easy travelling rules and regulations to entice would be tourists to come to Thailand and not go elsewhere while at the same time safe guarding the country from the Covid, it can be done if the right people with the right thinking will oversees the program... 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post graym Posted February 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 27, 2022 I worked in Saudi back in the mid 80s, lovely place...???? Anyhow, the flight out was always a hoot, we were obviously gagging for a sherbet after our 15 week hitch and BA never disappointed on that score, but I digress. The best entertainment was, once in International airspace, seeing some of the Saudi ladies in their traditional and most becoming, black garb, head for the 'heads' and return in slightly less traditional, and typically rather more exclusive, western outfits complete with bling, quite a transformation... ...oh and often, smoking hot these girls, just sayin'... 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonray Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 More than likely what will happen is more illegal immigration. In Kuala Lumpur, from 2015 to 2020 the "Arab" quarter now looks like a mini Lebanon/Syria with scores of those citizens who became refugees after conflict/economic downturns there. The food is great but Thailand certainly isn't ready for that. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Oxx Posted February 28, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 28, 2022 And if the plan fails to attract the one million, how many government people will be sacked or demoted for incompetent prediction? There appear to be no consequences whatsoever for tourist number predictions which are woefully over optimistic, which is why they keep coming. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post the green light Posted February 28, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 28, 2022 TAT don't need to revive the Arab to visit Thailand. 1. Arab men want girls ( or ladyboys ) for a short time. They will send their wives and children on a long trip shopping for them to bring a girl for a quicky in their room. or best make a trip to the massage parlor for a happy 1.5hr. Girls don't mind Arab customers as long as they bathe 2. a lot of booze.. they love to drink. Arab don't care for the bar scene If TAT should not think Arab wants : 1. to visit Temples or pray at the Mosque.-- No way 2. noodle soup with pork balls, - can't eat that 3 Non Halal food. may be sea food. But they will stick to their own diet. 4. girls with masks - seen it all the time in Saudi- boring to see them again in Thailand 5, Beaches...- They got beaches too. And they never go swimming. The ARABs want things they can't get at home...SEX and BOOZE Good luck TAT 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
