Dystopian nightmare. But it's you who are falling for that theory. How are you going to mitigate it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydebolle Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Sell fridges for THB 200 at the North Pole = no takers. Thailand's tourism industry needs a major revamp. First and foremost, stop racism and that will take more time than it took to implant this attitude. Everything non-Thai is free wild bait, ready for getting cheated, short changed, skimmed if not skinned alive. Over four decades living here, understanding Thai fluently, I am absolutely appalled about what I hear literally everywhere, when non-Thais surface as potential customers. Thailand has had the unique all-round product, culture, food, history, architecture, nature and beaches. But Thailand is in the process of losing this "mono-destination advantage" and the caucasian quality tourism made way for the quantity avalanches of Russians, Indians, Middle Easterners and lately Chinese. Thailand is not geared for millions of tourists on a monthly basis, rather have fewer but better quality/better paying tourism. Latter requires above-average service level, linguistic skills and and an absolute absence of racism. As said, there is plenty to do for Thailand and it will take quite some time to recap at least some of the quality business which made Thailand such a magnificent destination 30 years ago ........

thesetat Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 On 3/2/2024 at 5:41 PM, Thailand said: The Chinese were certainly not travelling during Covid there were massive restrictions on not simply travel but movement even within Chinese cities which was controlled. I personally know 3 Chinese families who live in ChiangMai and because they were in China when Covid was rampant could not not return for 2 years in each case. I meant at the beginning of covid. When 100s of thousands were permitted to travel when the government already knew covid was rampant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same applies to Russians, though they are here in droves now. Droves or Drones ?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
