Thai Prime Minister Saita said in Bangkok that from March 1, 2024, citizens of the People's Republic of China will be able to enjoy a permanent visa-free policy, which undoubtedly surprises the majority of Chinese people who are looking forward to traveling, and the first gift of the new year comes so suddenly. Thailand, a welcoming neighbor that Chinese people yearn for, a place full of strange culture and rich natural scenery, is also one of the most popular tourist destinations for Chinese people. The convenience of not having to travel a visa puts Thailand's mystical ladyboy culture, alluring tropical scenery and relative price advantage at your fingertips. At this special moment, we can't help but ask, when Chinese invest in what industries in Thailand, what new Thai experiences will they bring?
Ancient China is connected to the mountains and rivers of Southeast Asia, and the first choice for Chinese immigrants is Thailand, which is located in the center of Southeast Asia. At the same time, a large number of Chinese have also settled in Thailand, becoming their hardcore driving force in many fields such as industry and commerce. As China has become the largest investor in Thailand several times in the past five years, the influence of Chinese capital in Thailand is constantly expanding, achieving real mutual benefits.
China's investment tentacles have extended to a variety of industries, including tire and rubber products manufacturing, motor vehicle and parts manufacturing, steel manufacturing, real estate, and power generation and distribution projects. In particular, Thailand has"Asia's automotive hub"This has led Chinese electric vehicle companies such as BYD, Great Wall Motor, GAC Aion and SAIC Motor to actively enter Thailand and make a good layout for the Southeast Asian market. Moreover, the investment boom is not confined to the real economy, with many Chinese tech giants such as Huawei, ZTE, Alibaba and JD.com joining Thailand's version of the digital economy revolution, and their growth in the Thai region is in full swing.
Regarding the number of Chinese in Thailand, there has also been a steady increase in recent years, and they are not only curious about the lifestyle of Thailand's new people, but also have new needs for buying a house. This surge in demand has also made the amount of real estate investment by Chinese in Thailand remain high, and even become the main force of the industry.
However, compared with its rapid economic development and in-depth bilateral exchanges between China and Thailand, Thailand needs to further strengthen its security issues. Although Thailand provides many protection measures for overseas tourists, there is still a phenomenon of maliciously using Buddhism to defraud Chinese tourists, so overseas compatriots need to be vigilant at all times to ensure a smooth and safe trip while enjoying the scenery of Thailand.
Overall, Thailand's visa-free policy undoubtedly makes us look forward to our travel plans in 2024. At the same time, Thailand's enthusiasm for Chinese investors, broad development prospects and rich and colorful culture and art have also attracted a large number of Chinese tourists to study, buy, invest and travel in Thailand. I hope that in this new year, we can find more new opportunities in Thailand and realize heart-to-heart exchanges and sincere cooperation between the Chinese and Thai peoples.
