Travel and Learning with Tammy. : # 1 Impacts of Tourism Thailand for foreign traveller

In Thailand, the tourism industry is the main income of Thailand. Most foreign travelers always come to visit Thailand during high-season or between December-May every year because most of foreigners from almost every countries can visit Thailand for vacation without visa entry for 30 days such as USA , UK , All European countries , Russia , UAE , South Africa , Japan , all of Asean countries ,and so on. Furthermore, if your passport require a visa entry for Thailand. you could easily make a visa entry for Thailand at visa on arrival , Suvanbhumi airport.

Luckily, I used to work at visa on arrival and inbound immigration at Suvanabhumi airport that's why I know it well.By that time, I found a lot of impacts while I was working there . But I 'm not going to criticize it. I will criticize about impacts of Thailand. So far, Thailand has been still a developing country for long time ago.And, It is better for westerner or easterner to visit Thailand because the cost of living here is cheaper than other countries. It's not an impact at all.

In contrary, some of areas in Thailand are manifest higher cost of living than other areas that either foreign travelers or Thai travelers can not avoid when they are visiting in those areas.

Especially ,In Phuket Province , I used to visited There twice times. Everything such as, food, beverage, accommodation, car fare , and services are fabulous overpriced.
even though I am a Thai visitor ,I can never look for a cheap food over here at all. The minimum of a dish of food is 50 BATH. Unlike, other area it is just 30-40 Baht .
Besides the carfare on Patong beach is quiet expensive. It's around 200 Baht. Unlike others area it is just only at least 10 baht you can go anywhere around in Bangkok and Chaing mai.

Also, taxi driver and tuk-tuk driver will probably require a unjustified carfare for foreigner or new immigrant from you . So you just bargain carfare with the driver first prior to moving with them otherwise you will be overcharged.

Next , you will see travel scams happen everywhere. If you are the foreigner remember you will be a target person for them.

Then, you will see the commercial sex around some popular cities such as Phuket, Koh Samui, Pattaya, Chaingmai, Huahin , Bangkok and so on (It's a normal thing that you see anywhere). There 's many prostituteswho look for negotiate with you when you are visiting there.
