Tourism Industry in Thailand

Posted: Oct 11, 2011 |Comments: 0 |
What Thailand is most popular with? What is the first thing that comes to your mind when we talk about this country? Well, I am sure that it is tourism and amazing sights. However, the Thai tourism industry is experiencing some serious problems, which may have a huge impact on the vision which the government is trying to create about this country.

What I am talking about is the sex industry in Thailand. It is so popular, that many people, from all around the world come here, only to become part of this big "money machine". However, it is not the only bad thing in the picture. This type of tourism attracts not only people who find the whole situation interesting, but also drug dealers, contrabandits, weapon dealers and etc. As you can imagine, all these things cause big troubles to the authorities in Bangkok.

However, the actual situation in Thailand is very different from what the legal authorities talk about. According to the latest research, there are over 2.5 million sex workers in Thailand. Most of them are women (around 2 million), 20 000 adult men and over 500 000 under the age of 18. However, we might not see actual actions against all this industry, because as many researches show, big part of the officials with serious interests in prostitution often protect the practice. So, It will be very difficult for anyone to stop it. On top of that, according to the calculations, over 3 per cent of the Thai GDP is coming from prostitution. This is around 4.3 billion US dollars. All these money come from sex industry alone, so as you can see it is very, very profitable business.

This is not the only thing that you can do in Thailand, so if you are interested in culture, history, architecture, you simply have to call Thailand and make a reservation in one of the many, cheap and well looking hotels.

However, if you want to become part of the sex industry, this will be the easiest thing in the world. These girls can be met anywhere, any time. The prices for their services are very low so they are also very affordable. However, you should be very careful, because over 500 000 people in Thailand are infected with HIV and most of them are sex workers. So, when you make you international calls to Thailand, you should keep in mind, where you are going and what you should expect.
