Precautions for Tourism Safety in Thailand

First, traffic safety precautions

Traffic accidents are one of the common accidents of China tourists traveling in Thailand, mainly for the following three reasons:

1, traffic in Thailand turns left at the right rudder, which is just the opposite of our domestic traffic rules. Many people in China are not used to it at once, and instinctively walk to the right, which is prone to traffic accidents. So be sure to be familiar with and abide by the local traffic rules in advance.

2. Some tourists will rent a car locally (by bike or motorcycle), but due to the complicated road conditions (all kinds of cars are mixed together), they are not familiar with the local routes, and it is easy to have some minor traffic accidents.

3. Many tourist areas in Thailand are mountainous areas with narrow mountain roads and steep slopes. In rainy season and rainy day, the road is slippery and prone to traffic accidents.

Second, the safety precautions for tourism projects

The biggest risk of tourism projects comes from water conservancy projects, mainly for the following three reasons:

1, some people in China have a weak sense of safety, ignoring bad weather or safety warnings in Thailand, and insist on playing in the water. Of course, some accidents are due to the lack of safety warning tips or Chinese signs. In either case, we must first improve our safety awareness, because the greatest safety guarantee comes from our safety awareness.

2. The aging of some water sports equipment has hidden dangers, and there are also reasons such as lack of professional guidance and irregular operation. So be sure to check the equipment and understand the relevant safety protection before playing.

3. Some tourists are physically tired, have high blood pressure, heart disease and other diseases, and have no reasonable rest or warm-up, causing accidents. We must pay attention to the combination of work and rest and do what we can.

III. Precautions for Health and Personal Safety

1. Thailand has hot and humid weather and many mosquitoes, which are easy to spread diseases such as dengue fever and malaria. In addition, some people are not used to local food and seafood, and there will be acclimatization. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare mosquito repellent and gastrointestinal medicine, and pay attention to the cleanliness and freshness of drinking water and ingredients.

2. The law and order in Thailand is generally good, but in places where there are many people such as scenic spots, bars and food streets, if you have fun and relax your vigilance, you will steal, and there may be a robbery in some remote sections, so try not to walk alone in remote sections. Take care of your bags and belongings.

In addition to the three safety precautions mentioned above, there are other precautions, such as riding an elephant and watching a snake exhibition, which also have certain safety hazards. You should obey the command of the staff at the meeting. In addition, when you are in the hotel, be sure to lock the door and check it again. Try not to open the window where people can enter before going to bed to ensure safety. Don't smoke in bed, and don't hang clothes on the lampshade to avoid fire accidents.
