Spitting Chinese not welcomed here!


The Nation has a survey of Thai’s and their view on tourists. Hightlights:

… 28 per cent naming mainland Chinese as the least polite visitors, followed by tourists from India (20 per cent) and the Middle East (19 per cent).

…When asked which tourist behaviour they find impolite, 29 per cent said damaging the local sights was the most offensive, 21 per cent cited cultural insensitivity and 20 per cent cited spitting.

At least they realize they have a problem, just hope we see some improvement before this:

Last year, 31 million of China’s 1.3 billion people traveled abroad. By 2020, that number is expected to rise to 100 million a year.
