Hi mates I read this a few days back and am at a total loss to understand the idea behind the words though I'm a competent reader of the English language ; could anybody puleeeease reformulate this for me in basic English? :D On the heels of Saturday's tragic events in Bangkok, Thailand's tourism industry has become the global poster child for what the media is calling an explosion that is expected to hit hotels throughout the country.

After speaking to hotel executives about Phuket, it is evident that for the moment the nation's capital remains an isolated epicenter of both metrics and opinion. :)

Here you go. Your frog is resting comfortably in the pond by my home. You pay the freight costs and I'll send him/her back to you. However, my granddaughter might be a little disappointed because she's grown fond of "Froggie".

As far as the rest of your post is concerned I have no idea of what you are talking about.

I'll give it go, but it doesn't really make sense:

On the heels of Saturday's tragic events in Bangkok, Following what happened in Bangklok on Sunday

Thailand's tourism industry has become the global poster child Thailand's tourism industry has become the example

for what the media is calling an explosion that is expected to hit hotels throughout the country.

If it said Bangkok's tourism industry, it would mean what is happening there is what the whole country will experience soon.

Thank you TW R 25 W , I had no idea "global poster child" meant " example" ; I was even thinking of " F oster child".
