Tourism In Thailand

At least until recently tourism in Thailand was the third most important sector of the Thai economy, after agriculture and exports. By industry, the tourism is in the first place. The country is without doubt one of the favorites in the world of destinations, in part because of its magnificent beauty (many varieties, and not just the famous islands), in part because of the friendship with his people, in addition to some relatively simple and the safety of travel in Thailand, which is slightly up and down Solo traveler savings.

This situation is now considerably in the workflow, and the concerns about the sustainability of Thailand out of the tourism industry. Currency fluctuations and the new economic policy was a tooth in the exports as a source of GDP and are increasingly exposed to unpredictable and time - especially floods and droughts - all over the country are increasingly of concern to farmers.

These changes make the sustainability of the tourism industry in Thailand all is paramount. Although the country has survived until today, the threats to the industry, such as SARS, bird flu and the tsunami of 2004, relatively untouched by tourism and the operators are all too aware that a major bird flu or another tsunami (in a region where the earthquake in Indonesia, as it has caused, one in 2004 are becoming more common) have a devastating impact on the industry.

Moreover, the shift of the main airport of the country, a large installation Suvarnaphumi again after the former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra in Bangkok, the travel hub for Southeast Asia "was a little mitigated when disaster for the country and the source of a national disgrace. Hurry for the construction, corruption, the practice of construction and poor planning led to a multitude of far less than the 95-year-old 'old Don Muang airport, where the visitor Thailand has a long slope, and the effectiveness of its attack. The new airport is served daily at the national level, in correspondence with the reporting of safety (in particular traces) and inconvenience. It is far from the city, which is much more difficult for tourists to Bangkok and other destinations on their travel routes.

There is great fear among observers of the scene tourism in Thailand, that there is still a major problem, as described above for the tourists traveling to other destinations in Asia and elsewhere. The impact on the Thai economy could be disastrous, if the tourism has been the task of even a small amount.
