With repect, only if you are staying in a Chinese owned hotel. Check hotel ownership before booking - I did! Nowadays when visiting Thailand I still use those Thai family owned establishments.

zzaa09 Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 9 hours ago, stoner said: this is wonderful news. i love chinese tourists. Simply because they spend the most [as a collective] and today are clearly the most numerous - that's the bottom line. Plus the added incentive for pleasing prospective Chinese business/infrastructural investors..... It's where the wealth is centered these days. Certainly not gonna get this from the skint West, as hard times are looming for the majority. Can't blame the Thais for chasing the opportunities. Taking advantage of these particular situations comes naturally. It's not a political thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read that initially as "to ease travel from the world's largest outbreak".... which was about right, in 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't have to be Chinese owned, they just make and agree contracts with them. One time you stay there and rhe next time you visit, the place has totally changed and involved on the accommodation side with agents doing zero dollar tours! 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I met a family of Chinese quality tourists at a Bangkok mall two years ago. They couldn't find a restaurant there (even though there were dozens), so just in case they had brought their own lunch in tupperware... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heads out of the sand please. Over 500 billion baht spent in Thailand in 2019 by Chinese visitors, the most, by far, of any country.
