Is Thailand expected to exceed 10 million tourists this year?

The section is shocking and fresh to take on an EEG.

According to Thailand's official national tourism revenue statistics for the first half of 2017, the number of monthly inbound tourists in the first half of 2017 was 2.8 million, bringing a total comprehensive income of one trillion baht to Thailand's tourism, an increase of 6% year-on-year. Among them, tourists from China contributed the most, about 100 million baht.

According to the statistics of Thailand's national tourism revenue in the first half of 2017, released by the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Tourism and Sports of Thailand, Pampanou showed that the number of international tourists visiting Thailand in the first half of this year was about 17.33 million, or about 2.8 million international tourists entering Thailand every month. The comprehensive tourism revenue was about one trillion baht, an increase of 6% year-on-year.

If calculated according to the total revenue target of trillion baht for tourism in 2017, it has been exceeded by 53%. Domestic tourists contributed 500 billion baht, while international tourists contributed 876 billion baht. China's source market remains the most important market for Thailand's inbound tourism, contributing a total of 100 million baht in revenue in the first half of the year. This was followed by Russia with 56 billion baht and Malaysia with 46 billion baht.

According to the report, the number of tourists from the United States is showing a steady growth trend and is expected to exceed the 1 million mark for the first time this year. In view of the shift in the consumption behavior of international tourists to mobile smart devices, the Ministry of Tourism and Sports will work with local authorities to find ways to better meet the changes in consumers. It is reported that Chinese tourists account for 70% of online spending, while the proportion in other countries has also reached about 50%.

In 2017, the number of Chinese tourists to Thailand is expected to reach 9.5 million, bringing about 500 billion baht (1 yuan is about 5 baht) of tourism revenue to Thailand. Shandi, deputy director of the National Tourism Administration of Thailand, said on October 18 when meeting with the visiting academic exchange delegation of the Heilongjiang Academy of Social Sciences in China.

In 2017, Thailand expects to receive 35 million foreign tourists, of which Chinese tourists account for a large majority, Shandi said. Since 2014, Chinese tourists have been the first to visit Thailand, and the most popular tourist cities for Chinese tourists are Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Phuket, Pattaya and other places. In recent years, the proportion of Chinese tourists visiting Thailand has been increasing, and it is now 68%.

Shandi said that after China put forward the "Belt and Road" initiative, the National Tourism Administration of Thailand has strengthened cooperation with many provinces and cities in China. At the same time, Thailand has launched a development strategy to focus on building a modern tourism industry, striving to improve the quality of leisure tourism in Thailand and make Thailand a preferred tourist destination for tourists within the year. Many people in Thailand have never seen ice and snow and want to go to Heilongjiang to see the ice and snow world, and the National Tourism Administration of Thailand will carry out fruitful cooperation with Heilongjiang Province.

It is also bad for tourism in Thailand, which makes Thailand's tourism economy relatively low, which is not conducive to Thailand's economic development.

It will hit the tourism industry to a certain extent, and then because of the downturn in the tourism industry, the number of tourists will decrease, and the goods, restaurants and other industries will also be affected accordingly.

This is quite a big blow, basically relying only on the rise of tourism to develop the country, if the tourism industry is hindered, it will bring a big depression to the country's economy.

Thailand's Ministry of Tourism and Sports announced on the 16th that the total number of foreign tourists visiting Thailand in 2017 exceeded 35 million, an increase of 8 77 over the same period in 2016, of which the number of Chinese tourists exceeded 9.8 million, accounting for the highest proportion.

At a press conference on Thailand's tourism and revenue in 2017, Thailand's Deputy Minister of Tourism and Sports Phongpanu said that the more than 35 million visitors generated more than 1,82 trillion baht (about 366 billion yuan) for Thailand's tourism industry, an increase of 11,66 over the same period in 2016.

Pampanou said that at present, the largest contributor to Thailand's tourism industry in terms of volume and revenue generation is still Chinese tourists. According to the department's statistics, the number of Chinese tourists to Thailand in 2017 increased by 11 97 compared with the same period in 2016, bringing more than 520 billion baht (about 104.7 billion yuan of yuan) to Thailand, a year-on-year increase of 15 78.

According to the 2018 tourism calendar released by the Ministry of Tourism and Sports of Thailand, Thailand will host events such as yacht shows, the Greater Mekong Bike Race, marathons and food festivals. Thailand's Kasikorn Bank Chi Dankong Research Center believes that the current trend of the service industry relying on modern communication technology is becoming more and more obvious, and the promotion of Thailand's official tourism such as Thai experience tours, sports tourism and gastronomic tourism will become the factors driving the growth of Thailand's tourism industry this year.
