Potential visitors from China are more concerned about tourist scams than political uncertainty in Thailand, while a slow economic recovery on the mainland could affect this market somewhat, according to the Association of Thai Travel Agents (Atta).
Atta president Sisdivachr Cheewarattanaporn said Thailand should strengthen safety measures to improve the image of the country and convince Chinese tourists who remain concerned about tourists scams, the health and safety of tourism products and services as well as substandard travel experiences.
Mr Sisdivachr said even if there is a political vacuum over the next 2-3 months, Chinese tourists would not be concerned about this factor or any possible political unrest.
