Thailand has become the country with the largest number of overseas Chinese. Even the royal family in Thailand has close ties with China. For example, a while ago, because the old king of Thailand died, Princess Sirindhorn became popular because she could speak fluent Chinese. The Thai royal family also respects China culture, and visits Chinese-inhabited areas every year during the Lunar New Year.
