No. 1 travel destination and wedding location for Indian tourists,

Better keep quiet about these plans in other countries

Yep, that’s gonna work well. Only another 24.75 GDP to find.
 

Don’t forget to tell them they need to arrive aft least 10 to 14 days in advance, in case either the bride or the groom test positive on arrival. Oh wait a minute, if they are there that early they may catch it. Hmmmm.

Don't forget to order a crate of water for the Guests and plenty of Peanuts. 200 BHT should do it.

We call it can't be arsed where I come from.  Its neither xenophobic not racist to have very little interest in other people's culture.  Good on them I say and leave them to it. I have enough trouble nowadays understanding the twisted cultural changes in my own home country, where they all seem to have some collective mental affliction, let alone other peoples.

Agreed. There are at least 35 million Thais and around 500 million Chinese that are xenophobes.

Indians spend a lot in Eddie f if they have them. I would often stay at the Shangrila BKK by the river for greeting associates and you would see the Wedding party boats one after the other packed with Indians on some nights. Or want to see a lot of them, then go down the street to the Holiday Inn. Lots of them in groups there too.

Next they will be inviting Indian lawyers to highlight the many popular courtrooms as divorce destinations for the soon to be divorced couples from India.
