However, not the same culture
At White Temple, some guides has to find some diplomatic solution in order to avoid to offend Chinese tourists.
Government Authorities in Bangkok has built new diplomatic relationship with China, becoming allies. Thus, with more convenient visa policies between China and Thailand, and the increase of Chinese middle class which travel more oversea, more Chinese tourists should go in Thailand this year.

For example, they claim that Chinese tourists don’t create troubles for them, they are kind people. For them, these troubles are only cultural misunderstanding because of different culture.
For most of Chinese tourists, Thailand is a dream and it seems they will be more and more to go there for holidays.
