You really must get out more as i said, its couples and families now , what i will give you is there seem to be more Girls ( traveling together) in their 20's ) than there ever have been before
Nothing to do with fb.
were generations apart old timer your experience/knowledge regards to facebook will be somewhat different than mine, unless your facebook (if you even have it) is full of youths in their 20's....

4-5 years ago half these cunts would never have even though about going to the likes of Thailand, but now its a really popular thing to do, the whole hipster "selfie" generation, c'mon you must have seen the tools...

Re: Thailand tourist numbers still BS
Sorry, but an official at the Tourism Authority of Thailand is not a valid source of information.International tourist arrivals rose 15.45% in the first three months of 2016 from a year earlier and are expected to grow 13% in the current quarter, an official at the Tourism Authority of Thailand said on Monday.
Especially when published in the "Bangkok Post'.

An endless stream of suckers for the mobs of 32 year olds to punch.

Re: RE: Re: Thailand tourist numbers still strong
No offence, but these types have been coming to the area for ages. Nothing new. In fact, I thought you were one if them at first glanceJamie_Lambo wrote:again another person that didnt really understand my post, im talking about the crowd that thailand is attracting now (if you had carried on and quoted the full sentence)...phuketrichard wrote:jamie;
MY god, you must have a very limited, unworldly group of friends LOL The "backapacking boom" of recent years hahhahahahahabefore i came to thailand about 4 years ago i knew about 4 people who had been before, my friend para john, my cousin, my friend whos half thai, and dino, but now with the "anyone can go backpacking boom" of recent years fueled by the likes of facebook
Let me be the first to say Thanks.ive helped loads of people out coming over here,
i am sure without you and fb no one would be here.
BTW if u discount the 25% Chinese tourist that arrived last year (nearly 7 million of them) there were more tourists vacationing here in the early 2000, way before you "discovered" this wonderful country
There are MANY more couples, families, groups visiting Thailand than Backpacker types and i doubt fb or you had anything to do with them visiting4-5 years ago half these cunts would never have even though about going to the likes of Thailand, but now its a really popular thing to do, the whole hipster "selfie" generation, c'mon you must have seen the tools...which is annoying as youve started getting all the crowds that used to fuck off to Ibiza, Nappa, Magaluf, Malia every year, and those annoying cunts are everywhere here being their cuntish selves looking like cunts, fuck off

Re: Thailand tourist numbers still strong
Thank god. i dont think anyone ( except family) that is on my fb is under 45were generations apart old timer your experience/knowledge regards to facebook will be somewhat different than mine,...
BUT what does fb have to do with on the ground tourists?
as above, ( looking at your pic with the hat) you all have been coming to Thailand dressing in those fucking stupid hats since the late 90's
Numbers grow regardless of what happens ( they ONLY slowed the year after the Tsunami) what has changed is the demographics of those coming and i think they are spending less than they did/person than back in the early 2000. Chinese now account for over 25% of the total and they leave very little $$ on the ground so to speak.
s everything is prebooked.
Just for fun,i looked at the number of cities i had been to.... over 1,000. ( i'd say i visited over 500 before i was 30) (4 trips to Europe, 3 overland trips Amsterdam Kathmandu ), lived in and traveled thru much of north /central Africa, 48 of 50 of the states. Must admit didn't make it to Thailand till i was 32, Burma, Laos & Cambodia at 38
countries somewhere around 80
