You have to since the westies aren't coming back, the Chinese drove them away. Nice strategy TAT, jolly well done. Even the Russians were better. All they do is block the aisles and get drunk in 7-11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydebolle Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Put the prices where they belong and you get the tourists you want to have. Usually better paying tourists are more educated. The effort of selling 100 packages at THB 100'000 are much easier and less than selling 10'000 packages at THB 10'000 - go figure into which category those lovely brethren from the red North belong! But greedy Khon Thai has no ability to understand basics :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now the tourism numbers are higher than ever, but the price thailand pays will be huge for future generation. " get the lowest-of-lowest chinese to thailand to milk them of the little they have.

roo860 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 They are both as bad as each other when it comes to this, the Chinese only take top spot as they are incredibly rude and lack any social skills (cutting in lines, shouting whilst talking to someone next to them etc). Apart from one or two countries most of Asia have no idea about recycling, using bins, the issues caused by littering etc. All these things have been banded about in the west for decades. The problem here is endemic and with the locals being just as bad, if not worse, there is no solution is sight. The young generation here also have no idea about it I think. I am sure they must be told in Thai schools about the problems caused, but they obviously take no notice. There is a large Thai school near where I work, the mess around there at the end of the day is awful. I noticed a parent the other day get in her car, before she closed the door she left what looked like an empty drinks bottle inside a small 7/11 bag on the side of the pavement near her front wheel. Come on, what the hell is that all about? A chuffing middled aged woman ! Probably expected some 'low-so' to clean up after her.Sent from my SM-G920F using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tifino Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I wasn't actually on about the 'coming down' of Orders (from home) - but that these tourists are flagrantly ignoring Orders from foreigners (Thai) in authority Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenny2017 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Chinese tourists warned - stop trashing "beautiful" Thailand Chinese tourists warned - stop spitting in pools where "beautiful" foreigners swim in Thailand ( my wish) It happened many years ago in a hotel pool of north Pattaya when my gf and I went for a swim. A whole group of Chinese tourists must have gotten a great deal for Island view and stayed for one night. Anyway, in the middle of our exercise it occurred that three of these Chinese Whisperers decided to spit into the pool, not far away from us. We're thinking of revenge and the pool boy was with us when we hit them with living ice cubes. And we were really good. I must have learnt many bad Chinese words on that day and tried them mostly in the elevator. They understood it. - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargeezr Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Must be that King Power and the selected places that the Chinese tour buses take them are making lots of money, I guess it is Who you know, and location, location, location.

Stargeezr Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Besides all the trash I seen while I stayed in Jomtien and Pattaya for the last 11 days, on my way from Pattaya to Hua Hin, I see many failed factories, and businesses, just going back into the earth. the buildings, if they are not just frames, are falling apart. the grass is very tall but can still see many barrels rusting apart, and leaking what was inside them into the ground around. Thailand is very far from being a paradise, and is not improving. Just my observations, and I do know that problem is entirely Thailands mess.
