Sluggish Chinese tourists’ influx hurts Thailand economy
尽管东南亚国家采取了豁免签证等措施吸引中国游客,但他们的回归速度较慢,这导致这些旅游依赖型经济体的衰退,并迫使企业重新考虑扩张计划。泰国、柬埔寨和越南等国的中国游客数量自疫情前显著减少。访问的中国游客更加注重预算,并且要求更大的折扣。中国出境游的缓慢恢复影响了酒店业的收入。泰国尤其希望吸引中国游客帮助经济复苏,但在中国黄金周期间的跨境交通仍然低于疫情前的水平。泰国旅游业严重依赖中国游客,在疫情爆发前每年有超过1000万中国游客访问该国。曼谷目前的政府正在努力恢复这些数字,包括从9月26日开始的5个月内免除中国游客的签证费。但最近发生的一些事件,比如曼谷购物中心的枪击案,可能进一步打击中国游客的兴趣。一些公司现在开始将注意力转向印度游客,以弥补缺乏中国游客的影响。 Chinese Tourists Slow to Return to Southeast Asia, Impacting Tourism-Dependent Economies
