Why does every online celebrity who travels to Thailand have an accident?

According to the logic of our network, every online celebrity who travels to Thailand will have an accident, and the probability is really too high. This is not a trip abroad, it is a great adventure in life. If so, why is there no news from our official channels, only unfounded obscenity and speculation on the Internet?

You know, in February this year, when the Embassy in Thailand reminded China citizens to pay attention to travel safety, it only warned them to "do their homework before leaving, and don't panic when traveling in Thailand", "obey local laws, be careful when carrying alcohol and tobacco" and "pay attention to wading activities, and keep traffic safety in mind", without any wording involving social security. When reminding everyone that "in case of travel disputes during your stay in Thailand, please call the Thai Tourism Police at 1 155 to protect your legitimate rights and interests according to law", you also specially indicate "including Chinese services" in brackets.

With the reopening of the country, Thailand, as a rare tourist destination that can enjoy visa-on-arrival treatment with ordinary passports, has become the first choice for China tourists to travel abroad. Before the security guards rushed to the hot search, the hot topic on the Internet was the price in Thailand. Many netizens who travel to Thailand feel that under the influence of inflation, Thailand's prices have soared. "Thailand is no longer the Thailand that can travel in poverty." The cost of traveling to Thailand is more than three times higher than that of two years ago.

Some media even quoted netizens as saying that "curry rice rose from 175 baht to 2 10 baht, and cold drinks rose from 40 baht to 45 baht", saying that Thailand not only had a high air ticket price, but also the taxi fare, accommodation fee and catering fee after landing, and the cost of going out for diving and sea fishing also doubled.

I don't know if "soaring prices" can not scare people who are used to domestic inflation at all, but the "Thailand tourism accidents" hyped by individual online celebrities have been fueled by people with ulterior motives and turned into "unsafe tourism in Thailand". After all, no one lives only once, and no one travels abroad for adventure.

Under the rumor, "insecurity" has almost become the only label on social platforms about Thailand tourism. Even those bloggers who have confirmed that they have returned to China safely are considered by many as "redeemed" and "returned to China to prepare for ransom". Indeed, the Golden Triangle on the border between Thailand and Myanmar, as the main drug producing area in the world, has made many people who don't know the actual situation feel terrible. Especially in recent years, telecommunication fraud in northern Myanmar has been rampant, rumors of "cutting the waist" have continued, and the impression that "Thailand is not safe" has been slightly fanned by people.

As we all know, just as the domestic network demonized Thailand's tourism safety, Pippa, Minister of Tourism and Sports of Thailand, said that Thailand's tourism industry is continuing to recover. It is estimated that Thailand will receive 25 million to 30 million foreign tourists this year. In the first two months of this year, Thailand has received more than 4 million foreign tourists.

Wandering around the topic of tourism safety in Thailand, I found something was wrong. For example, many bloggers smuggle goods under this topic, saying that traveling abroad is a stranger, and problems can be solved by calling 100 or sending them to Weibo. In case something goes wrong abroad and it is not easy to solve it, the conversation turned to emphasize that there is little difference between going to Sanya and Thailand.

I think everyone can understand that the so-called safety topic is hyped to reduce the dimension and crack down on Thailand tourism, in order to attract customers to similar tourist destinations in China. I have to say that the public security in our country is first-class, but this does not mean that the public security problem in Thailand or other countries is a mess, and tourism is life-threatening. This kind of hype that belittles other countries can't establish our own image at all, but can only reduce the public's cognition.

It is not clear whether Thailand is safe, but judging from the situation that tourists flock to Thailand, the tourism safety in Thailand is probably not much different. Moreover, compared with the "tour guide scolds tourists for not shopping" incident just exposed in a certain place in China, Thailand has not seen similar scandals for many years. Even considering the soaring prices in the context of inflation, I am afraid that the cost of going to Thailand is much more affordable than that in China.

Judging whether Thailand's tourism is safe can really reflect a person's overall cognition. If you really want to know who will benefit the most from unsafe travel in Thailand, you will understand the hidden truth.
