theguyfromanotherforum Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 I think it's just a current fad. They are not interested in girls and certainly not interested in culture. What can they possibly do here? Buy real estate in Chiang Mai? It's also a fad. Chinese like to buy real estate in USA/Australia/UK and Canada. I predict in 2 years Chinese numbers will go down and business will be back as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob13 Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 (edited) Thailand is close and easy to get to. I think there will more Chinese coming to Thailand in the future; a lot more. Edited May 6, 2016 by Rob13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watgate Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 I hope you are right but my feeling is they are here to stay. What with all the pollution and massive population in China, I am sure many Chinese are looking to migrate elsewhere to try an escape the harsh conditions in China. I think a lot of the Chinese who come to Thailand become enamored with the country and think they are in some sort of a fantasy world with much lower prices, as well as many interesting venues from the beaches to the mountains and all points in between. I guess time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchful Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 My sense is the Chinese economy is seriously slowing down. Consequently, the Chinese government will much prefer to have the citizens vacation in their own vast country. This theory begins to explain why the Chinese news outlets covered the beating of the Brits so extensively and repeatedly. That is, vacation home, where you will be ... SAFE!

Tomtomtom69 Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Economic conditions getting scammed by Thais etc. will reduce numbers at some stage. Yes it may be a fad for now but maybe not in a few years. Time will tell. Starting next month Chinese won't be allowed to drive to Thailand freely anymore but that won't have more than a tiny impact as out of the almost 8 million that arrived last year 99% came by plane or bus.

Bangkokhatter Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 I don't understand your comment regarding the not being interested in girls ? You are obviously not aware of the dynamic of the Chinese tour groups. Not many single Chinese blokes getting off the plane at Swampy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have a point there, but hardly a robust defense. Stupid isn't elevated to intelligent when it's compared to really, really stupid. "Curious.......because from my personal experience,thais don't speak to [sic] well of them " From your personal experience do Thais speak glowingly of drunken farang sex-tourists? It seems that visitor demographic hasn't tapered off yet due to boredom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orchidlady Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 i see a lot of tour buses with Chinese writing dropping men at the massage establishments on Ratchada at night when i'm across the street at a hotel enjoying tea and 50% off on bakery items. Don't think they're getting foot massages. s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longtooth Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Will they get used to living shoulder to shoulder in their polluted, impolite environment that is China? The answer is probably "only slightly, with huge reservations." Thailand would be a neighboring Eden. (Comparatively speaking) There's the answer. The small leak in the dam for Chinese tourists will become a gusher, and then a deluge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellowboat Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Met several Chinese who work in Thailand. Their attitudes are similar to any other foreigner. After working in Thailand for around eight years, you start to get bored of Thai culture. It just becomes a place that you work. The tourists will feel the same way over time. The difference is they can sometimes pass for Chinese Thais if their language skills are high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggusoil Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Thailand is close and easy to get to. I think there will more Chinese coming to Thailand in the future; a lot more. They haven't been talking about a fast rail link for nothing have they? Who patronises all those shops selling $25,000 watches and Lamborghinis on the 2nd Floor of Paragon? Japanese, Korean, Chinese fat cats. Can't get them here in enough quantities I'd say, and Bangkok, is probably the cleanest, most efficient, most sophisticated and most interesting city in Asia. Where else do you go shopping? Where else has shopping centres like we do here. Who else puts on Film Festivals with free admission. I'd like to know actually.

KhunBENQ Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 It's estimated that currently about 100 million Chinese go on tour abroad. Numbers will explode, 200 million, 300 million, ???

little mary sunshine Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 I am sure they will get tired of the Crime, dirty water, filthy beaches And being scammed by some of The locals. This will last a couple Of years, then they will all be off to Vietnam for cleaner water and more Beautiful beaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

optad Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 It is not about getting bored with Thailand, they are bored shitless at home. Difference is, now there is a middle class with spare cash.

alanferdi Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 the question is a bit vague..... its like asking would flies ever get tired of hovering over festing food. Well look at the proportions / China is loosing representive grounds with the rest of the world.... and they would very cunningly want to merge into thailand or even own it in their way of infiltration...but this is for the politicians... For those who are wondering what would be the new profitable wave among tourism....there is non more the contrary. - Get used to groups following a flag - over crowded food malls...where they just shop with their eyes. - Eating out is paid in China....so all they do is turn up in one of their own King Long buses...follow the flag and empty the dishes - Quality tourism.... way out get used to Chinese.... chicken farm mentality... the singaporeans call it Kiasu In my opinion...they will never get tired... perhaps the Thais might get annoyed and tired of this swam if allowed uncontrolled.
