While many Chinese travellers will be making overseas trips this week during China's long "Golden Week" holiday, fewer will be coming to Thailand.
Acknowledging the tumbling number of tourist arrivals from China, which fell by 12% in August, the Thai government this week has come up with measures to lure them back.
But those measures are merely ad hoc and China-specific solutions that overlook the fact that the government should be making Thailand a tourist-friendly and safe destination for all visitors from all other countries.
