morrobay Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 (edited) 4 hours ago, newnative said: Actually, if you google 'spending per tourist in Thailand' for 2019 and 2023, in 2019 it was 48,580 baht vs. 50,900 baht in 2023. So, I think it's incorrect to say that the 2023 tourists were spending 'much less' than those of 2019. No you or they about have that backwards : 2019 , 2 trillion baht/40 million foreigners=50,000 baht/foreigner. 2023, 1.3 trillion/28 million foreigners=46,428 * Best to do two searches for each year : 1) total foreign revenue. 2) total foreign visitors Edited June 1 by morrobay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is famous for roadworks and traffic......and more to come apparently. Can't even keep a famous landmark fountain working! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tourists and their families from the west want to walk and gawk which is impossible in Pattaya because of the state of the footpaths and having to look down all the time. The city fathers don't have a clue Well RobU if your walking in front of a flag it may not be too bad ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HalAndLois Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 Whenever I say words like "diverse" and "green", I just substitute the words *sucky*, *nonexistent*, *imaginary*, and *leftist*, and then it reads much more accurately. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, even using yours, 46,400 vs. 50, 000 baht would not qualify to be called 'much less' spending by 2023 tourists vs. 2019 tourists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutch boy Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 Pattaya is a cesspool as is much of Thailand. The only saving grace here in Thailand is the girls. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
