When large numbers of people from higher-income / wage countries stay in a less wealthy foreign country more-often / longer they  can drive up prices such that locals can not afford local items.  Hence there needs to be a controlled balance. 

If foreigners are allowed to do things like buy land, it can be a huge problem.  I have seen this 1st hand, in other locales. 

But, Thailand has a large market-sector devoted to this, and have safeguards in place to minimize the downside.  Yes, prices are inflated in tourist-areas, but go a few KM away, and a meal (for example) is a fraction of the cost.  In Thailand, more higher-wage country visitors = more jobs and wealth flowing into the country.
