Why don't people want to travel to Thailand?

According to the data released by Tourism Thailand on the same day, since the first half of 2023, Thailand has received more than 6,543,800 tourists from China.

Let's just say that this number can only be described as terror.

First of all, Thailand received 5.65 million tourists from China in the first half of 20 19, only14 before the epidemic. In addition, at the beginning of the year, Thailand was ambitious and said that we expected to welcome 7 million China tourists this year. However, after half a year, the goal is still 5.6 million, and we can't finish KPI.

Why don't China people want to go to Thailand?

The most direct and extensive reason is that there are too many negative news in Thailand. From the publication of Gayazi in March to July 9th, a bus full of tourists from China overturned in Thailand. Think carefully about the negative news in Thailand in recent months: kidnapping, murder, all kinds of crimes, traffic accidents, China people suffering, foreigners also suffering. Who will think Thailand is safe with this kind of information bombing every day? Everyone's negative impression of Thailand is becoming more and more rigid and spreading. For example, some netizens mentioned that Thailand has raised our giant panda "Lin Hui", so we have to boycott Thailand tourism. However, the official media reported in May that the Sino-Thai joint investigation team announced the cause of Lin Hui's death. We didn't mean to blame Thailand, but the people didn't buy it and recorded it as a black spot in Thailand.

Visa to Thailand is difficult to sign and is often refused. For example, those who have applied for long-term visas before, including those who have applied for pension visas, not to mention student visas, Buddhist visas and volunteer visas, often refuse to sign tourist visas, so this will actually ruin Thailand's position in the tourism market in the eyes of Chinese people. Thailand has landing visa, but landing visa 15 days is far from enough for many people, especially those who like backpacking. Thailand's attitude now is also very clear, that is, people from China are welcome to travel for a short time and go back as soon as the money is spent, and they don't want to stay here for a long time. In fact, Thailand has been cracking down on China people's long-term visas for a long time, and those who have obtained long-term visas have also encountered various troubles in renewing them in Thailand.

The crux of Thailand's current problem lies in its arrogance and prejudice against China people, especially tourist visas, which are gradually losing the tourist market of China people. The key is to lose China people's goodwill and trust in Thailand, and this influence is lasting and may be irreversible. When other countries in Southeast Asia, which are also rich in tourism resources, introduce policies that are more friendly to China tourists, Thailand may lose China tourists forever.

Here I want to say one thing, why is it so unsafe for China people to go to Thailand?

The external reason is simple. The people in northern Myanmar want to move to Thailand.

It is that North China has deceived too many people and there are too many dark stories circulating in China. In the past, it became more and more difficult for North China to deceive the people of, so that group of people in North Myanmar wanted to move their positions, and Thailand became their best choice. On the one hand, the two countries are close to each other; on the other hand, Thailand's tourism industry enjoys a good reputation in China, which makes it easy to fool China people.

The internal reason is that the China government has protected China too well. Perhaps many people don't know that China is one of the safest countries in the world.

Whether it is a well-known rich country in Europe and America or a poor small country around China, the security is far behind that of China. Remember, it is not worse than China, but far behind China. Shootings in the United States are not uncommon. Paris is called a thief's paradise, and rape can also occur on Indian buses. In China, especially in big cities, the public security level is top-notch. Girls can go downstairs to have a midnight snack alone in the morning, and even some ignorant citizens dare to fight with the police. These acts are equivalent to seeking death in most countries around the world.

Growing up in such a safe environment as China, many people take it for granted that other countries should be similar to China and have no basic awareness of prevention.

The group in northern Myanmar held a party in a remote place dozens of kilometers away from Thailand's tourist attractions and found a bunch of strong and handsome male models. Then, they go to China's travel bloggers to make a splash and turn the evening show into an online celebrity attraction. Finally, they just have to wait for China people to fall for it.
