Thailand’s tourism office has announced plans to give etiquette manuals to incoming Chinese tourists who are expected to visit the country later this week.
As much as 90,000 tourists from mainland China are expected to visit Thailand this week, according to the Tourist Authority of Thailand. In preparation for their arrival, leaflets containing information on how to behave properly in public have been printed and are ready to be distributed to Thailand’s Chinese visitors.
The manual, written in Mandarin, contains general instructions on how to responsibly tour the country, which includes guides on respecting local cultures, abiding with local traffic laws, and observing proper tourist etiquette. It also contains advisories against touching museum paintings and using public properties as lavatories.
According to the Bangkok Post, locals have been incessantly complaining against Chinese tourists’ public behavior and have accused them of disrespecting local laws and norms. A number of citizens say many of the tourists have caused road accidents, defaced tourist attractions, and even defecated on ditches and moats during their stay in the country.
Last week, Chinese visitors were banned from the popular Wat Rong Khun in Chiang Rai province in Northern Thailand after reports of a tourist’s alleged misuse of the toilet facilities went public. The ban has since been lifted. Full story...
