I love a good comedy 28million roflmao

"28 million tourists expected..."

And how many will COME?

An old and wise Chinese-Thai soothsayer has predicted " If have errection, toulist come, evelly time".

It has been downsized to 2 or 8 million tourist of that figure 6 are quality tourist spending an average of 60 baht each but atayed long enough to find out no poddy tat for you.

You people are all so negative. TAT has invested in expensive calculating equipment which they use to get an idea of the tourist potential. It is accurate 90% of the time.

Here is an example of such equipment.

_{Why not just round it up to 30 million. Sounds so much better.}

Good idea you should always have room for a margin of error. Mark this on your December page of this years calendar. They should join the Tall Tales club.

That must have been compiled and researched before the bombs went off last night.

Its all over the international media including Germany, China, Singapore etc.

Are they coming for the murders or the bombings?

Its much like a Theme Park here, but on the morbid side, with ripoffs, officialdom bullying and so on....

_{Why not just round it up to 30 million. Sounds so much better.}

He will probably make it 30 mill next week. Where do they get these stupid figures from.

Discover Thainess ... Scams, Rip-offs, Over-Charging and oh yes now you can see bombs go off in Bangkoks premium shopping mall right after you've got laid. Sounds like a truly memorable experience.

If BS was dynamite TAT and Chareon would blow this place apart.....

I wonder how many of them will visit Koh Tao ?

Just more HYPE.

Zero facts, just hopes presented as though some unnamed research was involved. Looks like the fortune teller slipped a few extra tea leaves into the cup.

So what do expectations matter if not backed up with some real !!!! figures. We heard that too many times before !

WOW!! REALLY....

I dont think there is enough room on Koh Tao

to stack all of those dead bodies there.

Quantity counts not quality !

So i am also enthusiastic and expect 33 million tourists 2015.

28 million from China, Laos, Cambodia and Malaysia and

5 million the rest of the world.

But next year Thailand will be the hup of employment in Asean and it will rise to 40 million.

Only my expectations based on nothing !

Lucky we get in Europe great quality of Japanese, Chinese, American and Russian tourists.

They spent a lot money.

Good luck Thailand

I don't think so the way the thai bht is going

Apparently you haven't been reading the news about the collapse of the ruble. That market is drying up fast and you'll be seeing a fraction of Russian tourists this year.

Good luck with that expectation boys.

28million theres more tourists than that in chiang mai alone,certinally feels like it with the traffic jams anyway at the moment.

I expected to win the Lotto also so what is new?

One can "expect" anything I suppose. I await the year to see how it actually pans out.

Better stop closing down all those brothels then.

Brothels are in many Western countries including the United States. Not specific to Thailand

"....invited all 260 million Indonesians to visit Thailand"

Blimey, I hope they don't come all at once.

Your joke at you thailand is full of hooks ever were you go in thailand you run into brothers and hooks .

28million Expected as long as you don’t treat this as fact and when only 8million actually arrive it won’t be such a disappointment to all associated with the tourist trade hotels prostitutes restaurant’s etc, I am not sure if the soldiers running the country would put people off from holidaying in Thailand think it would be more reading about all the murders rapes and scams carried out on tourists and publicised in the international press due to freedom of the press and no need to keep these story’s suppressed would be more inclined to put people off the Thailand family holiday experience

Must be a lot of anglers, wouldn't ya think, george?

I remember only a few years ago they "dreamt" about 21 or was it 22 million tourists.

Don't they realise how big a number that really is?

If 28 million people spread their arrival out over a year that is nearly 77,000 people arriving every day..... so how long would the queues be at Swampy?

answers on a post card please from Jomtien Beach....

And let's hope 28 million get the chance to return home alive!
