Is it dangerous to go to Thailand?

It is quite dangerous to go to Thailand, and the rate of accidents among people traveling in Thailand is also quite high.

Because Thailand is relatively close to my country and relatively cheap, it has become the first choice for many people to travel abroad. However, you would never think that Thailand is one of the most dangerous tourist destinations in the world. According to statistics, 23% of insurance claims come from Thailand, accounting for almost a quarter. Even the United States, which has a large number of guns, ranks second. Isn’t it incredible? But it's true.

The most common danger in Thailand is traffic danger. Whether it is a car or a motorcycle, the probability of an accident is very high. This makes people wonder, don’t people there need to take a driving license? According to the World Health Organization, Thailand's roads are currently the second most dangerous in the world, behind Libya! In Thailand, many people speed, and motorcycles can often be seen whizzing by on the streets.

There was also the Phuket shipwreck last year. When the accident occurred, the Thai side's first reaction was not to rush to the rescue, but to shirk responsibility, saying that it was because of the dangerous operations of Chinese tourists! But what was later slapped in the face was that the tourists were traveling normally, and it was the Thai side that had the problem. There were clearly green flags on the local sea indicating that it was safe to travel. How could the blame be placed on the Chinese? This irresponsible behavior may also be part of Thailand's dangers.

Although Thailand’s tourism resources are good, they have not been developed well. Both services and safety need to be improved. If the safety of traveling in Thailand can be guaranteed, it must be the best.

So, many people are afraid to go to Thailand for a while. After all, life is the most important thing. But if you really want to go to Thailand, you must plan your itinerary in advance and prepare for emergencies.
