NANNING, 12 September 2016 (NNT) – Bangkok, the capital city of Thailand, has been named a ''City of Charms'' and selected to represent Thailand at the annual 13th China-ASEAN Expo in Nanning, the capital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China, during September 11-14. 

Deputy Prime Minister Prajin Junthong said during his visit to the 13th CAEXPO 2016 that Bangkok features charms and modern conveniences while the government will continue to promote Bangkok as a safe and convenient city for the country's tourist industry. 

The improvement of public transportation is yet to be carried out in cooperation between the public and private sectors, he said, while all products made in Thailand will be promoted to meet the international quality standards.

Initially, Thailand Pavilion will showcase traditional performances from all parts of the country including Thai-style massage. Products made in Thailand, including herbal products, favorable, instant curries, fresh and processed fruits and rice are all attracting Chinese and other ASEAN visitors.

Only the favorable ones...

Seems "Thai-style massage" is one of the big attractions in Bangkok. There are many variations of Thai style massage so would they be referring particularly to the  "soapy bubble" variety so popular with many tourists and locals.
