Never an opptunity missed by you to make racist remarks about Brits.

Racist? How so? Fact is, Britain's now becoming a Muslim majority country, so having more Muslims in Thailand should make Brits feel more at home. Reasonable, logical conclusion.

I would have thought that Ramadan is not the time for Muslims to travel, particularly with eating and drinking restrictions. Compound this with the hot Thai climate.

The Koran does not prohibit travel using Ramadan.

While Thailand has alcohol and ladies of the night readily available it will always attract the muslim hordes.

Poor Thailand, Chinese tourists thinning out!

Kinda curious who TAT will target next.  haha

Excluding the West.

Ever ask yourself as to why? 

😉

Many Muslims in many western countries.

Money, money, money. Why else would anyone try to attract muslims?

Just seems other destination are more modern (if wanting), but definitely cleaner.  The amount of trash and unmaintained building here/TH is quite surprising.  A simply coat of paint would do wonders.

I agree and my favorite is that yellow building on the corner of Sukhumvit soi 4 across from the gas station. Does anyone bother to look at the upper floors of that eyesore? (A coat of paint would not help, the relative humidity would ruin the paint in a couple of years.) But I suggest hat the mentality behind that ugly thing is part of what makes Nana Plaza possible, so no one cares.

Bingo. Ladyboys are a favorite of many Muslim tourists as they can, uh, touch them without committing a sin. The less religous ones may go for alcohol and real ladies. As far as families and more religious tourists - why would they travel to Thailand of all places during Ramadan of all times. If anything they'll go to Mecca or some other holy site. Actually funny just how unrealistic this is.

But the Chinese masters are knocking mosques down get Xi on speed dial we have an infidel problem 🤔

At least they won't all get drunk. The Thai Muslims in general are very hard workers, they don't sit around all day drinking, gambling, or having shoot outs. There are fanatics in all religions, not just Muslims. 

Hmm. That's a defence of the current islamic madness and terror?

They go to Mecca during Haj not Ramadan. Ramadan is the month of fasting, so to avoid that they may travel to Thailand.

In which case (the ones trying to avoid Ramadan/fasting) trying to entice them with "mosque tours" is not the right approach either...
